Jayd Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Okay, to be aware is to be well prepared. You should ad these to you visual Zon inspections. These have been occurring more lately... Papilloma: Little benign tumors that look like tiny warts. They typically appear in the throat or vent areas. They can grow large enough to block the vent, making it difficult or even impossible for the bird to poop. A diet high in Jalapeno peppers IS believed to help control papilloma birds. Some caretakers feed Jalapeno Peppers as a precaution. Vitamin A Deficiency: The main sign of a vitamin A deficiency is a feather stain above the cere (soft skin surrounding the nostrils). The staining of the feathers above the nostrils reflects a discharge from the nostrils. Subtle differences may be seen as far as the color of the cere and feathers is concerned.
