how to quarantine birds

[sydney13]

im getting some birds from a market so the aren't slaughtered and i know you guys are all gonna say dont do this because they are filled with diseases, but their no changing my mind

so when i bring them home should i give them wormers or do you only do that if u know the birds have worms? Also what type of vitamin supplements should i give them? and should i put mite remover on them

I would not give them wormers, or pesticides unless you are pretty sure they have worms or parasites. You can give them Vitamins & Electrolights if you want, it is available from the feedstore.

Good of you to rescue them. Post pix when you get them

I picked up some Poultry Protector from my local feed store. It states that it is "care free enzymes," "non-toxic," and "all-natural." It cleans away mites, lice, and fleas. It comes in a spray bottle. It also states that you can use it in the coop, bedding, and the birds. I have not used it yet but here is the website is www.carefreeenzymes.com.
