Are All The Birds Sick?

The video discusses the challenges faced by a bird owner whose macaw, Joy, tested positive for Avian Bornavirus (ABV). Despite the virus's potential to cause fatal proventricular dilation disease (PDD), Joy and other birds remain healthy. The owner decides to test only one other bird, Zoe, due to cost, and later discovers that both Zoe and a newly rescued macaw, Scarlett, are also ABV positive. The video highlights the prevalence of ABV in captive birds and the decision to integrate Scarlett into the flock. The owner shares insights on managing ABV and advises consulting avian vets for bird health concerns.
