QUESTION

How much does a "well birdie" vet visit cost? How do I find a good vet for my
love bird?


REPLY - By Kathy Greaser

No one can answer this question but your vet. Call around because the prices do vary a lot.
Just make sure you are calling vets who are members of the Association of Avian
Veterinarians (AAV) or a similar professional body and ask for an itemized
list of the cost.

Different vets include different things in their check ups. The only way
you can price compare fairly is with a procedure list.

Ask the seller who his or her vet is. Check with the local bird clubs. You should do this well
before any emergency arises.
