Adequate Avian Activity

Main Index / Birds / Prevention and Wellness

In appropriate species, opportunities may be provided for exercise in the form of supervised freedom from the cage. Pet birds are intelligent, active animals whose psychological needs should be addressed. Locate the cage near family activity in the home. Toys provide diversion, as do a variety of foods. Seeds pushed into an apple or orange presents a bird with entertainment, challenge, and food all at the same time. Use your own imagination, keeping within safe parameters, and provide entertainment for your pet birds.
