Just a question Is there such a bird??

I have had budgies, cockatiels, amazons, greys...can be messy and dusty if not looked after porp..

ok now i had my African grey for around 6 months but for that 6 months in was ill (asthma) to cut a long story short docter told me to rehome my parrot or i would get worse...i hear you saying why did i get him the first place....well i have never ever really had a problem atall with any animal with my asthma it went away for at least 10 years but came back when i got my grey..

I was wondering if theres a bird out there i could have??


thanks for taken the time tio read my post...

Birds do tend to carry alot of dust etc generally and can set most people off especailly if they have respitory probs or athsma. I dont know of any. Not like the hairless cat,rabbit guineapig and hamster i seen on a nother thread.

thanks Sullivan..yeah i dont think theres a Featherless bird...

I can tell that Cockatiels/Cocatoo's very dusty and I am allergic to these two birds, but as a rule I would go with a love bird/green cheek big sucks, they tend not to be very dusty.

What you like a you turkey plucker..lol


Mybe i am just that way with large birds like mybe greys and that..hmmm

Ok its all to do with the birds feathers.

Unique to cocaktoos, cockatiels and African Greys is a powder down which is much worse than in any other type of Psittacidae.

It really depends on how bad your asthma is too, you can get a special dander spray for birds which also keeps the dust down, also i would recommend a good air purifier.

Good luck
