Judy, I'm a little dense when it comes to birds because I've always been afraid of them, but do you take pet birds to a Vet or anything? Do they need vaccinations or when you can tell they don't feel good, can you take them to a Vet?

I'll be very honest - she was lying there, looking dead, but you never know.
The thought crossed my mind "What if she moves when I touch her to take her out of the cage? Do I rush her to the vet? "

I guess I would have had to - what else do you do with an almost dead bird?
It's just wrong not to treat it somehow.

I'm sorry Fiona - but I'm laughing - You would have cost me who knows what, and then died anyway. (Birds are very fragile).

I saw someone walk into The Animal Medical Center, a huge animal hospital in the city, with a turtle!
