Hey Bonnie, here in Southern California we have a problem with a pox virus
that infects canaries. They cannot be kept outdoors since mosquitos are the
vector. It is a fatal disease that is highly communicable and will kill
entire flocks of canaries. Some may survive but most die a painful death.
Please ask your vet about canary pox in your area just to be safe. I have
not raised canaries for a decade and they may have a vaccine now.


Thank you, I'll ask about that!
