You notice that your pet bird is sluggish, so immediately you conclude that it is sick. A quick reaction is to go to the pet store tender or clerk to get some pet medication. You ask the store clerk himself if he knows the appropriate pet medication for your sick bird.

Intantly the clerk turns into a know-it-all pet doctor, trying to figure out what could be the best medicine, and in a minute or two hands you the supposed cure.

Have you asked yourself the question: are the medicine given to you really the right one for your sick pet bird? And are you sure the clerk has arrived at the right prognosis and correctly chose the corresponding medication?

Bird veterinarians advise against this practice of soliciting medical help from pet shop clerks, the effect of which might be the endangering further of the bird’s life.

First of all, it is difficult to detect the kind of illness any bird might be suffering from, just by observing it. More often than not, its illness is obvious when it has reached the advanced state.

Simply put, you are risking your sick bird’s life by going for over-the-counter pet medication. When by the time you decide on going to the bird veterinarian for help, it can be too late.

Therefore, if you value your bird’s life and health, be sure to know a licensed bird veterinarian whom you can run to immediately once you detect even the slightest of sickness on your pet. And do avoid asking the pet store clerk for medication and remedy advice.
