The amen looks at the bird, says it doesn't look to serious, let ate,ive him a prescription. I think to myself, GR ligh!. Merlin is going to be fine. I wake up this mornireas sfind a dead bird. Are there any legal grounds for bout t ing a refund?

And I've already answered this question. Vets don't know a single thing about birds unless they have specific experience in avian medicine. Most vet schools don't offer that class. The vet had no idea how to treat your bird; his only crime is that he didn't come out and tell you that. No, you have no legal recourse. I suggest you find a vet who has had avian medicine experience. -- Sam Conway * What shape do you usually have? dragon@eleazar.dartmouth.edu * Mickey Mouse shape?
