Common health issues birds may
experience in their lifetime

Candida

Common but rarely fatal disease that often requires antifungal medications.

Avian Pox

Spread through mosquitoes, fleas, and mites, there is no cure although it can be managed with supportive care.

External Parasites

Parasites like fleas, ticks, and lice can transmit diseases and cause anaemia.

Roundworms

Spread easily among infected birds and may require multiple rounds of treatment.

Aspergillosis

This fungal infection may require bloodwork, MRIs, and endoscopies, and treatment may take several months.

Proventricular Dilatation

Also known as Parrot Wasting Syndrome, this is a fatal disease, although quality of life can be maintained with treatment.
