What Is Parrot Fever? Parrot fever, also called parrot disease and psittacosis, is very rare. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there have been fewer than 50 confirmed cases per year in the United States since 1996, although many cases may have gone undiagnosed or unreported (CDC).
Some diseases are sneaky; your parakeet can die without any symptoms from diseases. Chlamydiosis, or parrot fever, for example, can affect all birds and is often transmitted from healthy birds carrying the dormant organism. Your bird might seem lethargic or lose her appetite, or she might seem fine up until she dies.
