What are some things that I could put in a emergency kit for my Cockatoo, Parakeet, and Double-Yellow-Head parrot?
PLEASE NO RUDE ANSWERS.
Answers:
Well if it is a first aide then you need:
http://www.exoticpetvet.net/avian/firsta...
stockinette
neck brace
splints
cotton swabs
alcohol swabs
1" gauze tape
vet wrap
penlight
metal nail file
tweezers or hemostats
small scissors
clean dish towels
rubber gloves
sterile surgical blade
1cc tuberculin syringes
12cc curved tip syringes
flexible tubing
a net
sterile saline solution
Pedialyte
Betadine
Clotisol
Neosporin Ointment
Pepto-Bismol
Benadryl (pink kapseals)
Stethoscope Some you may not ahve but that is a complete first aid kit. :)
For emergencies like floods then you need small cages to take birds in, water, seed, and your first aid kit. http://www.aspca.org/site/pageserver?pag... This link gives you other important things as like the sticker that alerts rescuers to animals in your home.
I would make sure you have his/her own little feeding dish. Espesically some favorite toys. Take along some favorite fods. I know when I take my lovebird on a trip with me, I take a specially sort cloth so thea he can get some comfortable rest. You also may want to pick up some powder mad for birds in case he /she is exposed to any type of bird lice.
Happy Flying,

Septic powder or flour to stop bleeding and the name, address and phone nbr of the nearest avian vet. Don't wait until you need these things fast.
An emory board for filing nails down and little long-nosed scissors - not for cutting anything on the bird but for freeing the toes or neck from threads in which the bird has become entangled. A wooden toothpick can come in handy here, too.
1. A towel for restraining the bird (ALL birds panic when hurt)
2. Waterless antibacterial hand wash gel for your hands
3. Electric heating pad or sports gel heating pack
4. Peroxide
5. Q-tips and cotton balls
6. Flour or corn starch to stop bleeding
7. Tweezers
8. Scissors
9. Aureomycin antibiotic powder ( mix one teaspoon in one
gallon of drinking water-
buy at farm store )
10. An eye dropper
11. A good parrot book with comprehensive first aid chapter
12. Pack everything in a good quality bird carrier in case
bird needs to go to the Avian vet
I hope this helps.
Good luck
Ok here's a shot at this one:
corn starch
Needle Nose pliers
Needle
Dental Floss
Gauze
Perxoide
Scissors(small Pair)
Surgical Tape
Receiving Blanket
Bandaids
Razor Blades(2)
zip lock bag with Seeds in it
Lighter
Matches
Avian Vet #'s
Emergency Contact #'s
All band #'s on index cards
Photo's of bird(s)
Q-tips
toothpicks
Nail clippers
Nail file (metal or card board kind)
Super glue
Insta heat( hunters use them)
Hope this helped you. Some pet stores carry kits.

Styptic powder - not septic, is a must. You got all good answers.
Fresh water, seeds and, fresh fruit and veggies to eat.
A soft towel to cover at night, name and address to contact Vet. and owner.
For long trips, a nail clipper and antiseptic to take care of the nails.
