Small psittacine birds
Handling the smaller species of psittacine
birds (Budgerigars,
lovebirds and grass parakeets) present f
ew
special problems other than those of
capturing small
birds in large cages and of minor yet
painful bites. Most
are pet birds presented within a c a g e that
is usually full
of toys a n d perches, and capture is made
easier by the
removal of t h e s e impediments.
Frequently the cage
will contain several birds and care must be
taken to
prevent their escape during and after
capture of t he
target bird. Whenever possible, darkness
(as described
above) is especially useful to assist the
capture of small
birds in cages.
The use of a small, soft cloth, as described
previously,
will prevent the handler being bitten. With
experience
and confidence it will be f o u n d that many
Budgerigars, especially tame pets and
trained exhibition
birds, and most grass parakeets are easy
to
capture with bare hands. Once captured,
birds can be
handled for examination or for t he
performance of
simple procedures using the 'ringer's grip'
(Figure 4.2).
The bird's neck is held, within the cloth,
between t he
first two fingers and its wings and body are
gently
restrained with t he closed hand.
Psitcidos
Mynahs and ramphastids
Handling
Mynahs and toucans can be loud, active
and
aggressive, particularly if untamed. Tame
birds that are not given sufficient attention
may become also very aggressive towards
their keepers. The birds are best restrained
by
initially removing them from the enclosure
with a net or large towel. A toucan can then
be
controlled by holding the beak in one hand
and using a towel loosely wrapped around
the body to control the wings and feet.
Toucans should never be handled by the
head
and neck alone (Cornelissen and Ritchie,
1994). A mynah can be controlled by
holding
the head gently between the thumb and
first
finger, with or without a towel.
Blood collection and injection sites
These are the same as described for the
smaller passerines and for other birds (see
Chapter 5).
Large birds, like Macaws, can be caught
using a net, towel and gloves. Capture
should be fast and safe to avoid stress and
injury to the bird, with minimal handling.
When using a net to capture a Macaw the
correct method is to make sure that the
bird is all of the way into the bottom of the
net. The net can then be tilted to prevent
the bird from escaping. Once the bird is in
the net its long tail can be used as a
second handle to keep the bird in the net.
Most Macaws, when netted, do not
struggle. The Large Macaws (1995)
Macaws can be restrained by having a firm
grip around the back of the neck, with the
thumb and fore finger of one hand
restricting the movement of the head and
holding the wings folded against the body
with the other hand, so that the primary
feathers and feet are restrained. To help
with restraining the Macaw, a towel can be
wrapped around the body to immobilize the
bird and assist the wings and feet from
getting free. One of the most important
things to remember when restraining a
Macaw is to not let it manipulate its beak
out from your grip as it will turn around and
bite you. A Guide to Macaws (2003), Bird
Care 1 Class Notes (2004) Macaws are
from the parrot family and are very
intelligent birds. When dealing with tame
Macaws the process can be easier. This
can be done by training the bird with food
rewards to get it to go in and out of a
transport box on its own without the fear of
being harmed in the process.

Falconiformes
Manual restraint is necessary to reduce the
stress for the falcon during handling,
examination and sample taking. Moreover,
the fixation of a raptor prevents the
veterinary
staff from being grabbed, bitten and
eventually injured. Nevertheless, before
any restraint, the
falcon should be observed in its
physiological position and behavior.
Restraint can be performed by grabbing
the falcon. One person stands behind the
falcon
and holds his hands next to the wings. The
thumbs point towards the backbone of the
falcon
and the second and third finger point
upright. The other two fingers are held
towards the
ventral side of the bird (Figure 6.1).
Grabbing has to be done careful but
energetic enough
that the falcon cannot escape the hands.
The second finger points upright to the
wing tips.
The center of the hand palm of the handler
is positioned over the joint of humerus and
radius
and ulna. The last two fingers hold the
falcons feet (Figure 6.2). Another fixation method is the wrapping
method as falcons can be restraint with a
towel
as well. The towel is wrapped around the
wings and then closed on the ventral side.
This
method of restraint can also be used for
falcons when waking them up. This
wrapping method
should be used only for a few minutes.
Wrong handling can lead to fractured
wings or legs. Moreover, too tight catching
of the
falcon can result in respiratory arrest if too
much pressure is put on the lung and
airsac
region. Pressure on the abdominal part can
result in liver damage. Furthermore,
falcons
should never be transported while being
restraint as this will lead to maximum
stress for the
bird, hyperventilation and in the worst case
death of the falcon.

We have never utilized dedicated shift or trap cages to manage our ramphastids at
Riverbanks. These heavy-bodied birds
tend to fly in a relatively straight line, and
as such they are not difficult to net if you
are quick-of-hand. All of our enclosures
have been designed or modified to
accommodate their tendency to fly into
barriers and to minimize the potential for
damage. However, the possibility of injury
during catch-up still exists. Our policy is to
catch them up only when absolutely
necessary, and to minimize the time taken
to do so.
