Happy owners
Mochi stopped eating on a Friday. Dr Nair saw her the same day, burred her teeth and gave us a hay plan. She has not had a problem since.
Finally a vet who knows birds. Kiwi was weighed, checked and had her nails trimmed, and we got great advice on her seed-heavy diet.
Dr Nair went through photos of Noodle's vivarium with me and spotted that his UV bulb was too old. He is brighter and eating better already.
