Wow, fantastic, you haven't quarantined your birds! Great! You have just probably transmitted bacteria, viruses and diseases to your birds!
Here are a few diseases and parasites you could have introduced to your birds!
Scaly face mites
Lice
Red mites ect.
PBFD
Avian Polyoma Virus
PDD
Pacheco's Disease Virus
Parrot Fever
Fungus
Megabacteria
Canka
Ect.
If you love your bird you will quarantine!!! If a bird of your 'suddenly' dies and you haven't quarantined, DON'T expect me to listen!
It DOESN'T matter if your bird cost $10 or $500, if you love them, you will quarantine!
Quarantine should be at the very LEAST 30 days, some avian vets recommend 60 or even 90 days! Separate cages, separate rooms, some simple disinfectant between birds, and you have your quarantine!!
DON'T PAY THE PRICE THAT I DID!
If you had a potentially fatal disease that was easily treatable if caught in time, you'd go to a hospital!! It is the same for our feathered family!
The way I see it, if you don't quarantine and you KNOW what it is, YOU DON'T CARE!
In some parts, not providing adequate quarantine is illegal. It applies to animal rights stuff!
IT DOES NOT MATTER WHERE YOU GET YOUR BIRD OR IF YOU GOT IT FROM A NICE, RELIABLE BREEDER, QUARANTINE IS STILL A MUST.
