— During the 5 year period 1954–58 the Animal Hospital in Copenhagen, Denmark, received 1 ,592 birds for treatment. Because of the tendency towards self‐medication in the birdowning public, the majority of cases presented for attention were of a surgical nature. The author reports the statistical details of these birds together with a review of the conditions encountered and the methods of treatment employed.
