cdelatorrejr Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 All, I am focusing on socializing my 8 week baby TAG as much as I can. The TAG is well socialized with other birds at home - keets and tiels. I have also ventured out with him/her out of town by car using a travel cage. But what about spending time with other birds? There are a number of bird interest groups within my area. They often get together with their birds. My breeder cautioned me about this since other birds can easily transmit disease and illnesses. What are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M2MM Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Until he's older he will be susceptible to any and all diseases - avian or otherwise. It would be advisable to consult your vet about how old he should be before you start setting up "play dates." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nychsa Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 HI there, I'm faced with the same situation - this Sunday is a get together and most everyone brings their greys or other parrots to the meetings. I'd love to bring Bella, but I dont' have access to my avian vet (we just moved to FL and haven't seen the vet yet). Bella is 14 months now... there are other birds there her age.. so, I'm researching it before I take her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
