Maintaining Your Birds’ Health:
- Use antibiotics responsibly.Avoid using antibiotics indiscriminately, as this can do more harm than good.
- Never treat without a proper diagnosis.Blind treatment can worsen the situation. If your birds seem unwell, seek immediate testing.
- Get laboratory testing promptly.The tests should include a swab, droppings screening, and a full culture to check for respiratory issues and harmful bacteria like Salmonella or Paratyphoid. This will provide a precise diagnosis, ensuring you know exactly what, if anything, needs treatment.
- Ensure accurate treatment.If treatment is needed, request a sensitivity test to determine the right medication and avoid using ineffective remedies due to resistance.
- Implement a health care plan.Maintain a year-round health strategy to keep your birds in optimal condition.
