When placing perches in your bird's cage, try to vary the heights slightly so your bird has different "levels" in its cage. Vary the diameters slighty, too, so your bird can exercise its feet by sitting on a perch of recommended size part of the itme and on one that's slightly larger than the recommended diameter the rest of the time. Recommended perch diameters are as follows: 3/8 inch for finches and canaries, 1/2 inch for budgies, 5/8 inch for cockatiels, 3/4 inch for conures, 1 inch for Amazons and other medium sized parrots and 2 inches for the cockatoos and macaws. Don't place perches over food and water dishes because birds can and will eliminate in them. Finally, place on perch higher than the rest for a nighttime sleeping roost. Parrots like to sleep on the highest point they can find to perch, so please provide this security to your pet bird. |
