Finch Feathers Allergy (IgE)
A common pet bird whose feather dander can drive respiratory allergy symptoms.
Consider this test if:
- Respiratory symptoms, congestion, or itchy eyes that flare around pet birds or in the home
- Asthma or recurrent breathing symptoms with no clear trigger identified
- Keeping finches or other birds and wanting to confirm whether they are contributing
- Sorting out which indoor allergens are behind year-round symptoms
- HSA/FSA eligible
- Results delivered to your dashboard · Reviewed by a real clinician
- Drawn at a CLIA/CAP-accredited lab near you ·
Pre-test considerations
No fasting required, and timing does not matter. Antihistamines do not interfere with blood IgE testing, so you do not need to stop them beforehand. Share your symptom and exposure history, since the result is interpreted against it.

What this test is for
Finch feathers are a source of indoor allergen exposure for people who keep these birds or spend time around aviaries, and the dander and proteins they shed can trigger sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, and asthma symptoms. This test measures IgE antibodies to finch feathers, the antibody class that drives immediate allergic reactions. A positive result means sensitization, not a confirmed allergy: a true allergy requires symptoms that track with exposure, so the result is read against your reaction history.

Frequently asked questions
View all FAQsHow does pricing work?
Every test shows the member price next to the standard non-member price, so you can see what membership saves you. The member price is our cost — covering the lab and what it takes to run the service — never a profit on the test itself; Mito makes its money on the $9 membership, not on marking up your tests. Membership is $9/mo, and you still pay the lab’s order fee. Prices are itemized before you pay, with no hidden fees.
Where do I get tested?
Choose a partner lab (Quest, Labcorp, or BioReference) at checkout. If your cart spans multiple tests, we consolidate the whole order onto a single lab so you only make one visit.
Is this eligible for HSA/FSA?
Yes. This test is HSA/FSA eligible, and you can pay with your HSA/FSA card at checkout.
When will I get my results?
Your results post to your dashboard once your lab completes them, then a clinician reviews them and your full analysis and personalized action plan (with clear next steps) follow. Turnaround varies by test: specialty assays and at-home kits take longer, and each test shows its expected turnaround before you buy.
Do I need a doctor’s order?
No. Mito provides the lab order for you, so you can book and get tested without a separate doctor visit.
