Safe Savings

  • A cage can also be a cost-saving tool, but there are a few points of contention here: you may have trouble finding safe materials, and it also makes sense to try to build a cage yourself only for medium and large species of parrots. That is, if we are talking about aviaries for birds. How to build an aviary you will read in оваа член.
  • Walking platform. A parrot play area is a must in every room where a bird lives. In addition to being a legitimate entertainment area for birds, having a playground will save your furniture and household items from the parrot’s excessive curiosity.

You can make this corner yourself using branches and bars (taking into account the type of your parrot), for fastening you need to buy ropes made from natural fibers: sesal, hemp, construction ties and other devices.

  • Cage accessories. A wide variety of things can be toys for a parrot: from baby rattles, bottle caps, large beads, balls, balls, to home-made chewing puzzles from young twigs of permitted trees. What can be toys for a parrot you will read in оваа член.

All entertaining elements should be selected taking into account the type of parrot, since the beak of these birds is quite a powerful tool and what is good and safe for a budgerigar may not be the same for a gray or macaw.

  • Бања. Sometimes it is not possible to buy a bird bath or a cage, and the size of the parrot does not fit standard industrial baths at all. For budgerigars, plates, bowls, lettuce, a spray bottle, or a real shower will come to your rescue. For larger species, choose larger and heavier dishes, the stability of an impromptu bath is very important.
  • Lighting. For the health of parrots, the length of daylight hours is very important. In the absence of special ламба an ordinary 40 W lamp can be suitable for a bird – it will especially help out in the autumn-winter period, when the rays of the sun very rarely look into the windows of apartments and it can be dark all day long.
