By: E. Evans*, J. Netiffee-Osborne*, D. Webb*, P. Jay* & K. Flammer*

author keywords: water quality; microbial; coliforms; heterotrophs; Pseudomonas; water; avian; Psittaciformes; psittacine birds
MeSH headings : Animal Husbandry; Animals; Animals, Domestic; Bacteria / classification; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Psittaciformes; Water Microbiology
TL;DR: Results suggest that potentially pathogenic bacteria can be found in water offered to companion psittacine birds, and additional studies are needed to assess whether these bacteria are clinically important causes of disease and to develop husbandry methods that will reduce contamination.
