How to choose a birdcage

1. What is the birdcage made of?

Bird cages are usually made of wire, metal or stainless steel. Over time, some cages may rust or lose their surface finish, so if you want something that can be used for many years, please choose stainless steel.

2. Precautions for bird cage purchase

The size of a birdcage can be determined according to the size and activity characteristics of birds. For example, the cages of exotic and thrush birds are more demanding. The cages of yellowbirds and tits can be shorter; Larks, crested larks and larks like to jump. In order to make them fly, the cage should be as high as 1 meter. Generally speaking, a bird must have a territory of at least 40 square centimeters. In addition, the spacing of cage wires should be such that birds can move freely and their heads can't get out.

For birds that eat soft food, such as thrush and myna, it is best to have a double bottom. It's just that there's a dung board below. Because these bird droppings are thin and soft, it is easy to pollute the feet of birds, and the double bottom is convenient for frequent cleaning.

Birds that eat grain, such as yellowbird, should have a back cover to prevent chaff from leaking out.

Birds in Larnaco like sand bathing, and the bottom of the cage can be sprinkled with sand. There is a "singing platform" shaped like a sugarcane mushroom in the middle, and the drinking water tank is placed outside the cage to prevent the water from wetting the sand.

Bird cage placement position

1, avoid direct sunlight.

Although many kinds of parrots are native to tropical areas, birds are prone to heatstroke. Therefore, in warm weather, don't put the birdcage directly in front of the window with direct sunlight, or in the garden without shade and ventilation.

2. Maintain normal heat dissipation

Avoid hanging the birdcage near the heater, because if the bird can't radiate heat normally, it will affect its molting. Bird cages for birds and soft-billed birds are ideal in bedrooms with little interference.

3. Placement position of birdcage

Put it away from the kitchen. In addition to food hygiene considerations, the health of birds may also be endangered.

(1) Birds are particularly sensitive to toxic gases. Their bodies will quickly absorb toxic gases, and pet birds will die if they inhale PTFE gas generated by overheating of non-stick pans.

(2) In case the bird escapes from the cage, it is still in danger of being scalded or burned. The unique high and low temperatures in the kitchen can also stimulate birds and lead to irregular molting.

4. Pay attention to the height of the birdcage

The birdcage can be placed in the corner, so that the birds can see everything around them, and they can retreat behind the birdcage without worrying about people approaching behind them. The height of the birdcage from the ground is also very important, and it is ideal to put it slightly below the line of sight.

5. Keep children away.

Bird cages can be hung on solid shelves or furniture. Because if there are children at home, they may move shelves around and hurt birds or themselves.

How to wash the birdcage

1. The excrement bearing plate and perch of birdcage should be washed with water every day. If there is feces on the bottom of the cage, soak the cage in a shallow basin and clean it with a bird brush. Soak in warm soapy water every 3 to 5 days.

2, water should be poured out every day, wash the scale in the cylinder. If there are traces of feces in the crying mouth, they should also be removed.

Food cans don't need to be cleaned every day, but they can be cleaned once a week. The trough for feeding eggs and rice should be cleaned every three days. The trough for feeding powder should be cleaned every day.

4. The river sand laid at the bottom of lark and lark birdcage should be screened every other day to remove feces, and the clean river sand that has been dried or dried should be replaced frequently.

What if the ornamental birds don't enter the nest?

1, unfamiliar environment, need to be familiar with, put the bird in the nest in the wild environment and similar things to attract it in.

2, with fear, you can put food in the nest, attract it to eat, get familiar with it, and reduce the harassment to people in other situations.

In addition, the passage for birds is too small for them to get in, or the space is too small for them to stay in.
