22.  Understand proper care of domestic birds  Outline general rules for bird care

23.  What are common rules of thumb for all bird care?

24.  Environment  Food  Water  Enrichment  Illness prevention

25.  Cages: ◦ As roomy as possible. Able to spread wings & make short flights (exercise) ◦ Metal bars; birds should not be able to fit their heads through ◦ Horizontal: for birds that like to climb (parakeets etc) ◦ Slide out trays for easy cleaning and less anxiety to animal ◦ Draft free area ◦ Daily sunlight ◦ Even temperature

26.  Definition: large flying enclosure mimicking a natural environment  Indoor: ◦ You control temperature ◦ Often a room devoted to birds ◦ Windows are wired ◦ Door has a double passage way to prevent escape.  Outdoor ◦ Most natural environment ◦ Must have indoor shelter ◦ Wind breaks (prevent drafts, helps block some noise ◦ Normally all wired and mesh

27.  Hand Fed: Fed by humans formula via large syringe. ◦ Pros: More hand friendly and tame ◦ Cons: Time consuming, expensive (formula)  Seeds: Mixture, based on shape and size of beak ◦ Pros: Enrichment for animal ◦ Cons: Birds will over indulge  Seed pellet mix: Condensed nutrients in pellets with seeds available ◦ Pros: Great variety for enrichment and nutrition ◦ Cons: Many birds eat around pellets

28.  Fresh fruit and vegetables ◦ Pros: Enrichment, great way to bond with your animal (sharing food) ◦ Cons: too much can cause damage to digestion system  Grit ◦ Pros: Required for health digestion system of birds ◦ Cons: Some birds are picky with how grit is delivered.  Best practice: Mixtures of seeds, pellets, grit and fresh fruits/vegetables

30.  Drinking water ◦ Birds should have access at all times to clean drinking water  Common methods of providing water  Provided: Bowls, Gravity watering container  Bathing ◦ Large bowl ◦ No more than 2 inches deep ◦ Most birds must be able to see the bottom  Marbles, stones, colored bottom  Bathing ◦ Warm to room temperature water ◦ Misting spray bottle as well for thorough cleaning

32.  Toys ◦ Puzzles ◦ Chew Toys  Cuddle bones: provide needed minerals, helps trim beaks

33.  Mirrors ◦ Pros: Birds feel less alone & talk their reflections ◦ Cons: Birds will be more comfortable with reflection and reject owner  Perches ◦ Different sizes, shapes, and textures  Prevents foot stress and injuries

34.  Tags/ Bands: Used for ID and registration for paperwork  Cleaning routine: Thoroughly clean all perches and bowls. Replace bedding. Fresh seeds and fresh water.  Mite prevention: Mite cartons to help keep mites away from cages. Also available in powder

35.  Aviary: large flying enclosure mimicking a natural environment  Hand-fed: Fed by humans formula via large syringe.  Enrichment: make better or improve in quality  Cuddle bone: provide needed minerals, helps trim beaks  Perch: Used for sitting: Different sizes, shapes, and textures  Leg Band: Used for ID and registration for paperwork

36.  1. Compare and Contrast the Types of bird feed (Page 2) ◦ Complete the graphic organizer for each type mentioned in class  2. Design a bird food ◦ After learning about the types of bird feed, and their pro’s and con’s design the perfect bird food ◦ Use any ingredients you wish BUT YOU MUST  Explain why you used each ingredient  Give at least 5 ingredients  COLOR you food example  3. Design the perfect cage for your bird Pg. 3 ◦ Choose your own bird from our notes ◦ Design a cage based on their needs

37.  Letter to a Friend  Write a 10 sentence (skipping lines) letter to your friend who recently purchased a bird. Use your knowledge and notes.

43.  Transmission : through infected feces and nasal discharge Pacheco's disease

44.  Prevention: Quarantine shedding birds, Clean van blades and vents Pacheco's disease

45.  Symptoms: irreversible loss of feathers, shedding of developing feathers, development of abnormal feathers, new pinched feathers, and loss of powder down

46.  Transmission: through direct contact, inhalation or ingestion of aerosols, crop- feeding, infected fecal material, and feather dust Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease

47.  Prevention: Strict isolation of all diseased birds Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease

48.  Symptoms: prolific loss of feathers  Transmission: Non transmissible

49.  Prevention: ◦ Birds are very intelligent. They need socialization and enrichment daily. Feather plucking is normally a main symptom of emotional distress or upset Feather Plucking

51.  Symptoms: lethargy, anorexia, and diarrhea,

52. -Transmission: primarily through the air, shed from an infected bird in the nasal and or ocular secretions, fecal material, and feather dust Avian Salmonella

53.  Prevention: Proper hygiene  Treatment note: Can be treated with Pepto. 2-3 drops by mouth once a day Avian Salmonella

54.  Symptoms: sudden death can occur, progressive weight loss in spite of a good appetite, depression, diarrhea, increased thirst, and respiratory difficulty

55.  Transmission: by ingestion and inhalation of aerosolized infectious organisms from feces. Avian Tuberculosis

56.  Prevention: minimize stress and overcrowding; Provide proper ventilation; Prevent malnutrition with a proper diet Avian Tuberculosis

57.  Lethargy: tired, weak behavior  Powder down: Under feathers, powdered skin from feather coverings  Non-Transmissible: unable to be given to other animals  Shedding: Fluffing off of skin cells (carrying bacteria or viruses)  Aerosol: Air born particles (carrying bacteria or viruses)
