Please bare with me since my body has been sleep deprived for over three days. We purchased a parrot 1 1/2 days ago and she only sat on the cage door for five minues. Am not sure when the parrot will want to be out of the cage, but the wings need trimming. On Monday, the parrot will be seeing our lucky Board Certified Exotic Animal Vet. We are lucky to have this vet, one of only three Board Certified Exotic Vets in our state. Tests will be run and all the trimmings needed. So we have a few days where the bird might choose to fly into the area where the ferrets are, and no, we can't move the ferrets. Would like advice from bird and ferret owners for the future in learning what is needed to keep these pets safe. Read a long time ago that ferrets can kill birds, but to be honest, this imagine doesn't seem possible. My thoughts are more like, the parrot can kill the ferrets, but could be wrong. So if anyone can help, it would be appreciated. Debbie [Posted in FML issue 3478]
