MadMudMob™ 160 Report post Posted August 30, 2006 Why not drop David an email as he's above you in Aberystwyth area? Oh, and Jebirds isn't too far .... she must have a regular Avian Vet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheilcymru 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2006 The best avian vet for miles around here is Mark at Valley Vets in Cardiff. This is their web addy: http://www.v-e-t-s.co.uk/valleyveterinarygroup.htm where you will find info about them and phone numbers etc. Highly, highly recommended - and I would (and have) travel(led) from near Aberystwyth to Cardiff to see Mark, rather than use a nearer vet.

Guest Crazy Jo Report post Posted August 30, 2006 As far as I am aware the only avain vet in Wales is in Cardiff - Valley Vets Gabalfa. Thats where I used to go, I am sure OGL and Jebirds will know someone. I can recommend Valley Vets their care of animals is to be commended and they were very confident with my macaw and spot on woth diagnosis etc, but they are sticklers on the finance front eg - they wont let certain insurance companies be billed direct, like E+L Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're only just up the road from where you'll be (Llannon) - and definitely for birds you need to make the trip to Valley Vets in Cardiff.
