Bird Room Supplies - 3 Essentials for a healthy Bird Room

Making a bird room a happy haven for you and your feathered game pet can be fun and exciting. But beyond the basics of fresh food and water, each bird room must have the following 3 things to insure a happy, healthy bird.


Adequate housing-Do your research first. Some birds enjoy living together in pairs or groups, do better living alone. Some are social with other species, and some are not. Be sure to find out from a breeder or veterinarian what type of housing is best for your bird and create a space to suit your birds needs. Know what your bird will require before you buy it will save heartbreak later.


Oversize the space you provide for your bird so they have enough room to spread their wings without hitting and possibly damage their wings. The larger the cabinet the better it is for your pet.


Toys for emotional and physical health-Like people, birds can get bored. They need toys to stimulate their interest. Chewed perches Cuttlefish bone all keep beaks and feet healthy as can greatly increase their lifespan and will make your pet a happy member of the family. Toys should be rotated regularly to avoid boredom. And old items can become unsafe, shall immediately be replaced.


Keep the color and texture in mind when purchasing toys. Colorful, objects will not only stimulate your pet, but will create a visually pleasing space for you as a bird-keeper also. 
Clean Air-every bird room should have a high efficiency particulate arresting (or HEPA) air purifier to clean air.
