Domestic Poultry and Waterfowl Vet in Charleston, SC

Exotic Vet Care is happy to help you care for your chickens, turkeys, and other domestic poultry. We also welcome waterfowl such as ducks, geese, and swans. Domestic poultry can make wonderful pets, can also provide you with eggs and natural pest-control at they patrol your lawn. These birds thrive in spacious yards with predator-proof enclosures, and waterfowl especially benefit from some kind of water feature, such as a pond or fountain.

We recommend biannual physical exams and parasite screens for poultry and waterfowl to ensure they’re staying healthy.

To make chicken care easier and more affordable for our clients, we offer the Chicken VetCare Package that includes all the most essential services.
