Avian vet recommendations in Scarborough?
Looking for a good avian vet near North York. My regular vet doesn't seem super comfortable with birds and I want someone who actually specializes. Bonus if they do home visits!
Which avian vet do you go to? I'm looking for a good one near Kitchener.
Dealt with this for months. What finally worked was changing their sleep schedule and just being really patient. They come around eventually.
Have you tried keeping a super consistent daily routine β birds thrive on predictability? That's what solved this issue for us. Game changer honestly.
I struggled with this too until I started offering chop first thing in the morning when they're hungriest. Now it's like a completely different bird.
My advice would be adding a full-spectrum Arcadia UV light near the cage. Went through the same thing with my Quaker parrot last year.
This reminds me of when I first got Tweety. I was so overwhelmed but looking back, those early days were actually really special. The bond building phase is tough but beautiful.
My advice would be covering the cage partially at night for 12 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Went through the same thing with my Amazon parrot last year.
