Products
There are many good diets for birds and exotic pets available. Here at Birds and Exotics Animal Care we cannot carry every product line, so we work hard to carry only the products we feel to be the best available. We are always happy to advise you on your pet's diet, housing, toys and bedding.

We carry Harrison's Bird Foods for our avian patients. Harrison's Bird Foods were developed by an avian veterinarian and are formulated to provide a complete and balanced diet. The products are organic and free of dyes.

For our exotic patients, we carry Oxbow Animal Health products. There are formulated diets for each stage of life, fresh hay products and nutritional supplements.

Our local Macaw Rescuer, Judith Archer, makes a huge variety of high-quality toys out of stainless steel, wood pieces dyed with FDA-approved food colorings, vegetable-tanned leather, natural cotton and sisal ropes, natural woods and fabrics. She makes toys in all sizes to please both the smallest parrotlet and the largest hyacinth macaw. She will custom-make toys for choosy birds or rebuild a favorite toy. She also makes bird stands from PVC pipe, and can design a custom stand for the discerning bird. Proceeds from sales of toys and stands go towards paying the veterinary bill for her 32 birds.
While all of our toys are bird-tested and bird-safe, birds should be monitored while playing with toys, especially new toys. No toy can be guaranteed safe for every bird, as each bird plays differently. With toys that include rope, check for and cut off any loose strands. If you have questions as to which toys are appropriate for your bird, our staff will be happy to assist you.
