Long story short. I purchased a bird from a breeder a week ago and it has shed a virus throughout our whole house. Bird looks to have PBFD and psittacosis and possible cryptococcosis. My whole family has been tested and we are positive with an unknown bacteria and on meds for psittacosis and doing further testing. My 2 conures starting showing rapid symptoms of losing feathers and they were all quarantined and shedding this throughout my house and my dog is infected and now I think my 2 sulcata tortoises are infected!!! They are 2 1/2 yrs old. They were eating and drinking fine but I am looking at them now and I think their eyes might be swollen and I see some redness...I used to seee the whites of there eyes no problem but now, there eyes are not white. I want to know if anyone has experienced or is knowledgeable in this area. What are the symptoms in tortoises with psittacosis? There are no other symptoms other than the ones I described. They are my darling babies and I have to take them in soon but not sure when as we have spent A TON on medical help and medication all in a short period within a week. There are no words and I hope noone ever experiences this type of illness.....This sick lady wiped out my whole house and my whole family as I have kids and my 2 yr old was in the ER a few days ago..all for a mere few hundred bucks.
