There is an excellent article in this months Genii magazine (August 2011) called Death Defying Dove Acts. The article written by Dustin Stinett with David Oliver is about Bird Fancier's Lung (BFL) and it's a good place to learn about this serious disease you could contract when working around birds. If you haven't already, take a look at it.
It's something that never really crossed my mind, not that I'm going to be afraid of handling birds, but it does make you think. Respectfully, Phil |

Yes, me and others bird handles try to warn Café members of this when they say they want to have doves in the same room as they are living and sleeping.
An emergency trip to the hospital is no fun. It is all the dander they emit. |

A great reason to keep your birds safe and happy outdoors. It is a really good article, that's for certain.

My birds live indoors.
Gshmann knows how much dandruff (sp?) they release, especially on moulting season. It's crazy. |

Thanks for the heads up on the article. I lived with birds in my room for a couple years and it was miserable. The cooing is only soothing for a day or two and the dander is IMPOSSIBLE to control. They are happily kept in the garage now!
