ABVP Avian

Dr. Vanessa Rolfe just received a letter today from the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners that her credentials and application from January has been accepted in the Avian Medicine practice category and she is now eligible to sit for the ABVP certifying examination in November 2010.

There is a matching gift program now, your money to support the wonderful work Irene Pepperberg is doing with studying avian intelligence will go a great deal further.

See the Alex Foundation website for further information on how to donate!

Bird Talk Magazine 2008 published Dr. Rolfe’s article about bird beaks, aimed towards the new bird owner.

There are many different beaks on those different species of birds out there, and they all are adapted to the bird’s environment. Our parrots are known as “hookbills” and the beak is good at tearing up different things in order to forage for food and create cavity nesting sites.

Healthy Handfuls

Come in and ask for a FREE bag of Healthy Handfuls, the Oxbow diet for gerbils/ hamsters. No catch- the bags are soon to expire and we want to just get them used so we don’t have to discard them. Just say you read it on our website blog. Limited time offer, and when the soon-to-expire stock is gone, the offer is over.
Give us a call at 561-964-2121 if you want to check the availability still.

Here’s to the sometimes nutty, sometimes sobering land of exotic animal medicine. These are wild animals with very little medical facts known about them, so exotic animal vets are on the cutting edge of their care. Welcome to our world.
