problem and employed Steve Boyes to look into the conservation of all wildlife throughout the country and something he has discovered may assist in the finding of a cure for this deadly virus. What he done was to catch four wild Cape Parrots that were heavily infected with the beak and feather disease and put them in a small flight and fed them on a diet of about 80% of the fruit from the yellowwood trees.

Or maybe our birds get beak and feather disease because they cannot get food similar to what their system has adapted to over thousands of years in the wild? This study
