Backyard Poultry Vet Care
in Bucks County & Montgomery County, PA
Backyard flocks have become a beloved part of households all across Bucks County — and your birds deserve the same thoughtful, knowledgeable care as any other member of the family. We've been treating the furry, the scaled, and the feathered here in Perkasie since 1994, and poultry are no exception.
If you've been searching for a "chicken vet near me," you've found one. Dr. Adrienne Breaux and Dr. Adriana Gansz provide individualized medical care for poultry — a group of patients that too often has nowhere to go.
Poultry Species We Treat
- Chickens
- Ducks

Companion birds such as parrots, Amazon birds, African greys, swans, and finches are seen on a case-by-case basis. Give us a call at 215-249-9800 and we'll let you know whether we're the right fit for your bird.
Whether you keep three hens in the backyard, raise waterfowl, or show your birds at the county fair, our team can help them live longer, healthier lives.
Wellness & New Bird Exams
Adding birds to your property or bringing home chicks? A wellness exam sets a health baseline, catches problems early, and gives you a plan for quarantining and introducing new birds safely.
We'll evaluate body condition, feather quality, respiratory health, and overall wellness — then talk through husbandry recommendations suited to your birds' age, breed, and purpose. Bring a stool sample if you can, along with any previous records.
Sick Bird & Injury Visits
Poultry are experts at hiding illness. By the time a bird looks sick, it's often been sick for a while — so changes in appetite, egg production, mobility, breathing, or behavior are always worth a call.
We diagnose and treat common poultry conditions, including:
- Respiratory infections
- Egg-laying disorders such as egg binding and prolapse
- Bumblefoot
- Wounds and predator injuries
- Sour crop and crop impaction
Our urgent care team is here six days a week when something can't wait.
Poultry Diagnostics
When a bird needs more than medical management, we are here to help. Our team performs in-house diagnostics, imaging, and cultures on poultry right here in Perkasie — so we can find the problem and the best path for treatment.
Parasite Control & Fecal Testing
Internal and external parasites are among the most common problems we see in backyard flocks. We offer fecal testing to screen for intestinal worms and coccidia, plus safe, effective treatment plans for mites and lice — and practical advice on keeping them from coming back.
Nutrition & Husbandry Guidance
Good management prevents more illness than any medication does. We're always happy to talk through:
- Balanced diets and feeding by life stage
- Supplements, when they're actually warranted
- Coop sanitation and hygiene
- Seasonal care through Pennsylvania winters and summers
- Environmental and predator management
Biosecurity & Disease Prevention
With highly pathogenic avian influenza still circulating, biosecurity matters more than ever for Pennsylvania flock owners. We can help you reduce risk through sound quarantine practices, limiting contact with wild birds, and knowing which early signs of illness need a veterinarian's eyes.
Compassionate End-of-Life Care
When a beloved bird's quality of life declines, we'll give you an honest assessment and support you through the decision. When it's the kindest option, we offer humane euthanasia to prevent unnecessary suffering.
Flock Visits & Appointments
Most poultry appointments take place at our hospital at 391 W. Dublin Pike. On-site flock visits are available based on doctor availability — call us to ask, and we'll let you know what's possible.
Why Dublin Veterinary Hospital?
Finding a veterinarian who will see poultry is hard. Finding one who treats a hen with the same care as a golden retriever is harder.
That's been our whole approach since 1994. Dr. Breaux and Dr. Gansz bring real experience with poultry and other non-traditional species, and your birds get the same standard of medicine, the same diagnostics, and the same surgical suite as every other patient who walks — or waddles — through our doors.
We proudly serve flock owners in Perkasie, Dublin, Quakertown, Doylestown, Sellersville, and throughout Bucks, Montgomery, and Berks counties.
