Avian Care

Avian Care

Birds make wonderful, fascinating companions—and at Campeche Cove All Animal Hospital, we love caring for our avian patients! From chatty parrots to quiet canaries, majestic macaws to tiny finches, we welcome all our feathered family members with the same comprehensive, unhurried care we’re known for.

Care That Really Is for the Birds 

Here’s the thing about birds—they’re masters of the poker face! These clever creatures are experts at hiding signs of illness or injury as an instinctual defense mechanism. In many cases, birds don’t show any signs of illness until things are severe. 

Comprehensive Avian Exams 

The most important thing you can do for your feathered friend’s health is to keep up with regular veterinary exams. While twice per year is optimal, at minimum, your bird should see us annually for a thorough check that includes:

  • Body condition and weight assessment
  • Skin and feathering inspection
  • Eyes, ears, nose, and throat examination
  • Heart, lung, and air sac evaluation
  • Diet, habitat, and socialization discussion
  • Alertness and behavior testing

Trust Your Instincts 

Birds are delicate, and their health can change quickly. If you think something might be wrong with your bird, chances are you’re right! An examination today could help us prevent a serious problem tomorrow, so never hesitate to bring your feathered friend in. Our in-house diagnostic capabilities enable us to quickly test for parasites, inflammation, bacterial infections, anemia, nutritional deficiencies, and immune system function—all without the stress of multiple trips for your bird.

All Birds Welcome 

Whether your companion chirps, squawks, tweets, or talks, we’re here to help them live their healthiest, happiest life. We truly understand the joy birds bring to our lives and are ready to help keep your feathered friend in top condition.
