Types of Poisoning Lead Poisoning Symptoms:Â

Common sources of lead:
solder, bird toys, batteries, galvanized wire, cloths, linoleum, paints (lead-based), stained glass, curtain weights, fishing and diving accessories, ceramic pieces, foil covering champagne or wine bottle openings, led gasoline fumes, and Tiffany lamps.
Even your parrot’s drinking water can have a high percentage of lead. So, I would suggest using cold water for drinking, as hot water dissolves lead more readily.
Keep the amount of lead low, and ensure the pipes are regularly flushed. It is better to avoid using the water remaining in the pipes for more than six hours. If you suspect lead poisoning in your bird, seek medical attention without any delay.
Insecticide Poisoning:
It takes only some extra precautions to avoid the condition. While applying the insecticide sprays, do not keep the bird in that room.
After you are done with the spraying, open the windows. Let the fresh air come in. Only then can the bird be taken into the room. Symptom: Respiratory or breathing troubles Once you spot the sick bird, take it out to an open place. Call the vet.
