AHPA MEETING MINUTES
July 7, 2002 BY DEBBIE EUGENIO WISS
The Bird Club will be attending a First Birthday Party Luau on Saturday, September 7th at 4 PM at Maili Beach Park. Butch will bring a tent, so just bring your birds and their perches.
The smoked marlin will be available next month.
Kori looked into having us visit convalescent hospital patients, but the concerns were about the birds being exposed to possible infections and vice versa.
Our guest speakers Tom and Joan were visiting from the mainland and shared with us their experience with transporting their birds to the mainland. Some tips they offered:
Talk with the airlines about their policies and regulations; they have found Continental the easiest airline to deal with.
Policies:
4-5 animals maximum per flight
$100 per animal
must be in separate carriers if animal is over 3 yrs old
plywood & wire mesh boxes with a screw in door work well with holes drilled for ventilation
bring food, water, quickstop for injuries & a screwdriver
Health Certificate:
get from the veterinarian within 10 days of flight
Travelling from the Mainland to Hawaii:
must have a health certificate bird must have a leg band or a microchip there’s a 30 day inhouse quarantine
Butch handfed a couple of hungry baby African Greys.
Aloha to our guests Evan and Kevina.
