Health Disclaimer

Finches are very vulnerable when sick. There are no guarantees that any particular course of action is going to work. Inappropriate treatment will likely make things worse quickly. Even when treating at a vet, there are no guarantees the bird will recover.

A sick finch's best chance is always going to be with a qualified avian veterinarian. If you choose to try to handle the illness on your own, you always do so at your own risk. While the information I provide is accurate to my knowledge, I am not an avian veterinarian. That which I do not know about avian health far outweighs the small portion that I do know. I share what I have learned only to help those interested in finding that information. By sharing my practices, I am not recommending them but only explaining them. There are no guarantees that my experiences are typical of other aviculturists experiences. Whatever decisions you make are your responsibility and you are responsible for the risks - stated or unstated - and the consequences that accompany those decisions.

Use the information provided herein at your own risk. When in doubt, consult a qualified avian veterinarian. Finch Files and FinchAviary.com (and those associated with these sites) are not responsible for any adverse consequences that occur as a result of using the information found herein.
