Frequent Twitching

Recommended Posts

Hello, I was just wandering if anyone had a similar problem. I noticed my African gray twitching or jerking her head frequently the last week. I am concerned. I was thinking it might be a neurological problem or chemical imbalance. Does anyone know a bird doctor in the Houston area or League City area? She doesn't do it all the time but it is noticeable. I do not think it is an ear infection or condition because it is not consistent.

Thank you,

Sincerely, Crystal.

That sounds like an inner ear infection or an infection in the rear of the nasal passages. It could also be a clogged ear that happens when birds scratch their heads and ears. Signs of these problems don't have to be consistant. No matter, those types of things are treated by a vet

 

Neurological problem or chemical imbalance.???

 

Again, only an avian vet can diagnose that. We would be remise in telling you what's wrong.

 

I live on the east coast so I can't recommend anyone but you can call them.

 

These are animal hospitals in Houston that deal with birds
