Ok, I have read and saved the Thread on shipping Birds so I know to ship birds older than 28 days. But here are my questions:
1. I do not like prisoners, so how old is too old for a young bird to be moved to a new loft and then will not home to the new loft?
2. Since I would be shipping or receiving young birds, what vaccines, worming, and meds should the bird have before it is shipped?
3. If the Birds are wormed and vaccinated, before shipping; but I not sure the received bird was treated, would it be safe to quarantine and treat the bird a second time at the receiving end also?
4. I know I should quarantine a new bird for at lease two weeks and look for any illness, but should I give any meds during this time also, even if it is a young bird?
