For a novice searching for a pet parrot, determining the health of a prospective pet can be difficult. Birds have a tendency to hide illness, and a new owner may find himself with a very sick bird in need of veterinary care with no guarantees from the seller.
Most pet stores, and many breeders give no guarantees or returns/refunds on livestock. No businessman can afford to pay for other people's mistakes, and it is unreasonable to expect the seller to guarantee the bird unconditionally. Birds are delicate creatures requiring special care, and are easily injured or killed, especially when in the hands of inexperienced owners.
The animal may be accidentally poisoned by houseplants, or break its neck flying into a picture window or mirror. A bird may be pestered and mauled by unsupervised children or frightened by other family pets to the point that the stress causes death. However, it is not unreasonable for you as a customer to expect that the animal that you are purchasing is healthy when it leaves the store.
You should ask the seller to agree to a veterinary certification of the bird, at your expense, within a week of purchase. That way if blood tests or cultures show that the bird is ill, your money will be refunded or the seller will be responsible for the veterinary bills. Although such testing will identify the most common diseases, there may still be unforseen problems in the future.
Unless there is a specific screening available, congenital defects or genetic diseases may be impossible to identify. The tests are not your unconditional guarantee that your bird will never develop an illness in the future, and the seller and veterinarian will not be responsible if a disease develops at a later time.
