Hillary Clinton: "When I hear people like Kennedy talking about getting back to a time where we aren't vaccinating, we're drinking raw milk - yeah, & people didn't live! I mean, this is so crazy, it's so wrongheaded, it's so shortsighted and it's going to cause deaths... it already is costing lives"

Without UVB lighting, birds face serious health risks:
❌ Vitamin D3 deficiency (leading to weak bones)
❌ Weakened immune system
❌ Behavioral issues (stress, lethargy)
❌ Impaired vision
Provide proper UVB light for optimal health! 🌞🦜 #BirdHealth #AvianCare #UVBforBirds

UVB light enables birds to synthesize vitamin D3 in their skin or through a special gland near their tail (the uropygial or preen gland).
Vitamin D3 is essential for:
- Calcium absorption
- Bone development and maintenance
- Proper muscle and nerve function

Veterinary Care Tips for Military Macaws:
✔️ Regular check-ups + annual blood work
✔️ Proper diet (80-90% pellets, 10-20% fresh fruits + veggies, <10% seeds)
✔️ UVB lighting
✔️ Provide mental stimulation with toys & foraging
