Yes, there are some people who are allergic to bird dander or who get

" bird fancier's lung " from the feces. However, I've raised many

species of birds over the past 25 years and had clear x-rays whenever

I had them taken. It wasn't until I was exposed to mold at the

workplace that I became severely ill and developed interstitial lung

disease. I was tested for the bird thing, which proved negative and I

still maintain a small flock of birds. It's been 9 years since my mold

exposure, so if it were the birds, I'm sure that the lung thing would

have been progressive. In all my years of bird breeding, I've only

heard of a handful of cases where breeders have developed lung disease

from it.
