Hi there,

I live on the Gold Coast, Qld and am looking for a POULTRY vet. I specified poultry because I have taken my sick chooks to two Avian vets here, but after spending hundreds of dollars, none of them were able to help my sick chooks. Very disappointing,especially when one has spent that much amount of money. Don't mind paying if my Chooks could be healed. Got more helpful advice on this forum

Apparently, the reason vets have no knowledge of how to treat poultry is that when at Uni, all they got was 10 pages of info on the anatomy of a Chook and this was traight from the mouth of a vet!!!. I don't mind travelling to Brisbane if I know there is a good vet who has successfully treated sick Chooks, so, if anyone out there can help me, I'd be most grateful. [smilie=a_doh.gif]

Hi Chook lassie

I know what you are saying. It is very disappointing to go & see a vet, have them take your money & tell you they don't know much about poultry.

The best Vet/bird specialist is know is Deborah Monks. She is a fantastic bird specialist & it would pay to just give her a call first to ask her if she understands poultry, but I believe she would as birds are a very specialist area. She is at Mt Gravatt/McGregor, just down the road from Garden City Shopping Centre.

Be warned...she's expensive. I think a consultation is about $92.50 & that is without even any treatment, but her reputation in Brisbane is huge. Every Vet I called when I had a sick bird told me to go to her, and that is saying something. But she is normally booked out by about two weeks in advance.

She was truly wonderful though & I learnt a lot from her.

Hope this helps

Cheers
Chicka-Dee

Thanks Chickadee, I most certainly wiil give her clinic a call. I don't mind paying as long as I know that my birds are getting the right treatment. Thanks again.

Regards,
