Cage Parakeet
Buy a Spacious Parrot Cage for your Pet Parrots
If you prefer a round parrot cage, you would do well to know your parrot doesn’t like it. There must be some corners in the cage so that the bird can feel comfortable and safe. Make sure you keep enough bird toys in the cage, so that the parrot can stay active and stress free. The general rule of thumb is, larger the cage, happier the parrot.
A small parrot doesn’t Mean a Small Parrot Cage
Even small Parakeets should be provided a large parrot cage, which should be at least 18 inches wide, 14 inches deep and 22 inches high. This is only the minimum requirement and you can build as large a cage as you want. The bird should at least be able to fly around a little, flap wings and hop between the perches. These activities would ensure that your parrot is happy, stress free and healthy.
Larger Parrots should also have Some Space
For larger parrots, a parrot cage should be at least 40 inches wide because their wings are larger than that of Parakeets. The parrot cage should be so high that the parrot’s tail doesn’t touch the bottom of the cage when it is sitting on any of the perches. You must have some space over the head of a parrot so that you can hang some bird toys. The bird feels suffocated when there is not much space (or toys) within the parrot cage. Parrots prefer their cage to be square, rectangular or hexagonal in shape. Corners are very necessary so that birds can have some sense of direction. There is no point of reference within a rounded parrot cage so it’s difficult for the parrot to know the direction it is standing in. Lack of sense of direction makes the bird confused and restless. Birds prefer horizontal bars compared to vertical bars since horizontal ones also serve as extra perches.
Parrots shouldn’t Miss Their Home
When parrots are in the jungle, their life is full of activity and flying from one tree to another comes naturally to them. The owner’s aim should be to make sure the parrots miss their original home as little as possible. That’s why you need to hang extra bird toys and ensure that the parrot’s life is full of activity even within the parrot cage. Parrots should be given the opportunity to interact with their owner as much as possible and they should be able to feel a part of their owner’s body (such as finger or face) from within the cage.
Change the bird toys frequently
If the same toy is left hanging near the parrots for a long time, they get bored easily. A practical solution may be to use some home made bird toys so that they can be changed frequently. Leather toys should be avoided because they become sticky due to nectar they are fed with.
Powder Coating for Parrot Cage
If you are getting the parrot cage painted, you should go for powder coating rather than conventional way of painting. There should be no sharp articles within the parrot cage since birds are vulnerable to them. Popular parrot cage materials are wrought iron, stainless steel, wire, bamboo, plastic and wood. Cages made from wood, plastic and bamboo are not likely to last very long whereas those made of metals tend to last longer. Therefore, if you see a parrot cage as a long-term investment you should go for metal cages. You should, however, avoid lead and zinc because both these metals are harmful for the birds.
