I sent them one too.

Dear Pennsylvania Game Commission,



This is regarding the banning of owning Nanday Conures. The thing is these birds do not carry bird flu, it is the wild birds who pose a threat to our pet birds, not the other way around. It isn't something a pet bird can suddenly catch, it needs to come in contact with a wild bird carrying the virus to get it. Why not ban the owning of all pet birds, because they could all possibly get it couldn't they? I am an owner of conures, and I run a re-homing service for pet birds. I also moderate the online Conure community "Conure Crazy" (www.conurecrazy.com). None of them have gotten sick and I have never seen nor heard of a pet bird getting bird flu.



Thank you.

Haley
