ABOUT HANDLING BIRDS FOR PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
IMPORTANT "RULES"
Be gentle.
Be firm.
Be relaxed in oneself.
Be systematic and methodical.
Avoid the use of gloves.
From the veterinarian's perspective much joy can be experienced while doing a basic physical examination on a minimally restrained very tame pet bird. Such birds will frequently
interact, seeking preening and courting responses. However, a physically secure escape proof room, a relaxed state of mind, and additional time are prerequisites for this sort of
examination.
