Avian Bornavirus: Common Signs & Treatments

A Lafeber Pet Birds webinar hosted by Laura Doering, former editor of Bird Talk magazine and Birds USA magazine with special guest, Susan Orosz Ph.D., DVM, DABVP (Avian), DECZM (Avian). Dr. Orosz provides an update on Avian Bornavirus(ABV) and how it can affect our various parrot species. She discusses this complex neurologic disease, including symptoms and some therapies that can help. She will explain why some researchers are using the term Avian Ganglioneuritis for this disease, and how it may be linked to some Feather Destructive Behavior. Because this virus can be “dormant” in a pet bird for decades, with no illness, this is a must-view for all bird owners!
