how long to quarantine?
I've had my zebra's in quarantine for 30 days. They will eventually be in a large aviary in my bird room. (I have another large aviary with parakeets.) Is 30 days long enough of a quarantine? Or should I wait 40 days before moving them to the bird room? They have been perfectly healthy since the day I brought them home, and they currently do not show any signs of illness.

I am sure you will get many different opinions on this one, but I think the thirty days is enough.

If you have not noticed any signs of illness then 30 days is sufficient.
