1) The
health of the bird is guaranteed for 24 hours through
examination by an AVIAN CERTIFIED veterinarian at the discretion
and
expense of the buyer. If the bird is found to be of
unsatisfactory health and written documentation from a licensed,
AVIAN CERTIFIED veterinarian is presented, the buyer will
immediately deliver the bird to the breeder and receive a full refund
of the purchase
price of the bird. This documentation must include band number
and species. The breeder will not be responsible for any
expenses incurred by the buyer during this time
or for costs to return the bird to the breeder.
2)
In the unlikely event of death within twelve
(12) days of the buyer taking possession, the bird must be
wrapped in paper towels,
placed in a plastic bag, and
refrigerated, (not frozen), until a necropsy can be
performed, by a qualified, licensed Avian Veterinarian
within
seventy-two hours after death. All reports must be sent to our
veterinarian, and include band number and species. If
necropsy
proves beyond doubt, that death occurred from problems
originating prior to the sale a full refund for the cost of the
bird,
applicable taxes, and the cost of the necropsy will be provided.
The breeder will not be responsible for any other expenses
and takes
no responsibility for problems
occurring in other birds, as per clause 3(a), the
bird must be quarantined and it is the buyer's responsibility to
do so.
3) Guarantee
is void if all the following requirements are not followed:
(a) The bird must be quarantined away from all other birds and
an examination by an Avian Certified Veterinarian must be
done
within 24 hours after possession.
(b) If you currently have other birds or have had
birds in the same environment within the past year, you must
provide
documentation of their health and past medical history.
The reasoning for this is that many viruses can
stay in the environment for many months after an infected bird
is removed.
