Bird Cages, Parrot Cages

Feb 2012 There’s a range of bird cages and parrot cages to suit every home end every budget. Your first consideration, when purchasing either bird cages (for cockatiels, budgerigars etc) or parrot cages (larger structure designed specifically with strong-billed macaws in mind), is the size of the bird you want to put in there: after that, you need to think about the size of the room the bird (or parrot) cages are going to live in – and, of course, the type of bird you want the cages for. Parrot cages, for example, are unsuitable for very small birds – the parrot cages’ size is good, because it gives a small bird a lot of space to fly in, but the gaps between its bars (designed to give a much larger parrot a feeling of space) will let smaller birds escape.

Any reputable pet shop or supplier of pet equipment will give you proper advice on the right size for bird cages or parrot cages: what safe minimum to buy for whatever bird you are trying to house. As a rough guide (again, ensuring that your cage is bought with the correct kind of bird in mind): buying the biggest bird cages or parrot cages you can fit in the place set aside for your birds will ensure that you raise happier (and therefore more attractive) examples. An active parrot is a happy bird: buying cages that give it ample space to play is an insurance against the disfiguring effects of chronic boredom. Bored parrots tend to scrape themselves obsessively against the bars of their cages, a habit that leads to baldness, sores and pronounced mental instability. Buying bigger cages increases your chances of avoiding disturbing behaviour: prolonging the life of your bird considerably.

If you’re lucky enough to have a large outside space you can abandon the idea of bird cages or parrot cages in favour of an aviary. Aviaries are essentially huge bird cages – even the largest parrot will have plenty of room to manoeuvre, and you get the added bonus of being in the cages with your bird, should you wish to: knowing that bars are still preventing them from actually flying away. Bird cages that are big enough to keep people in sounds like a recipe for a happy parrot to me.
