Living with a Mini Macaw that has Seizures

Did you know that seizures can be quite common in birds? In fact, seizures occur in numerous bird species like the Mini Macaw, the Amazon parrot, African greys, canaries, finches, and lovebirds. If you own a Mini Macaw then you should be cautious of the signs of seizures in birds. For instance, symptoms may include excessive flapping of wings, confusion, falling from perch, convulsions, and involuntary body movements. Call your vet if your bird has any of these symptoms. Your vet will most likely be able to diagnose and treat your bird. However, it will be up to you as the owner to keep an eye on your bird and make sure his seizures are monitored, reported, and treated accordingly. Most birds recover from seizures on their own and may or may not have another one. To learn more about seizures in birds like the Mini Macaw, please call your local veterinary clinic Niwot, CO.
