Testing

Unfortunately, bird diseases (such as Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease (PBFD) and avian polyomavirus (APV)) are very common among aviaries, breeding facilities and companion birds. The majority of these diseases are deadly and highly transmissible between bird species -some like psittacosis can even be transmitted to people- so early identification of the disease is crucial for the safety and treatment of your bird.
