    About this ebook

    A book that will help you understand the parasites that can live on or in your birds. How to identify which parasite might have infected your bird and how to prevent this from happening again. I have mainly written this book as I have worked a lot with birds and their owners and have noticed that it is quite hard to get info regarding your pet birds. I hope this will help you and make your bird as well as your life easier.
