My Avian Vet Fired Me!
« on: January 24, 2008, 01:40:09 PM »
Those from usmilnet who know me know that I/we have two parrots.

One of them, a Solomon Islands eclectus, has been feather-picking for 3 years now.

At the end of November, I drove from the middle of Missouri to Kankakee, IL, to visit an avian vet who -- legend has it -- does well with this kind of affliction.

Fast forward to today, more than six weeks later.

Problem is WORSE, not better, despite shelling out close to $500 for her "advice" and "holistic treatment protocol."

What a ****ing crock of shit.

I blasted her in a fax (because her office staff don't accept emails) and the bitch ****ing fired me!

 :rotf: :mental: :lmao:

Talk about running and hiding from a problem! Sheesh!

Is she a hippy vet? Does she have hairy legs and stuff? Can I have her number?

You leave her the hell alone. She's MINE!

Uh....at least she USED to be.

Hairy legs? Dunno. Didn't get that far. Too busy throwing insults.....

If you house the bird in a pyramid shaped cage the geometric energy will cure the problem.  I thought everybody knew that.

Put a photocopy of your hand on the bottom of the bird cage.  That's important too.

Well there's your problem. You took your bird to a vet that neuters dogs.
You should have taken your bird to a vet that neuters birds.

 :rotf:

I'm still trying to figure out what "el quapo" means.

Jack! WTF does that mean?

Birds and dicks. Jeez-oh-pete, you guys don't quite get it.

Birds are dames. In England, at least. Dicks are Richards, also in England. But they can be here in the States, Australia, even Germany!

None of that has anything to do with my eclectus!

Now! Go look that one up!

Damn! Now I'm really confused.
So did his vet give him the bird or did his vet give dick the bird?!?!
