Ling Writes:
Hi, I want to improve my Bird’s lighting, which is currently 2 screw-in compact full-spectrum bulbs.
I like the look and description of the Full Spectrum Economy Daylight Bulb with Clamp Light & Timer.
A couple of questions….can I hang it from the ceiling over her cage?

I’m having a heck of a time trying to decide.
This little parrot didn’t have a great home life when I bought her last July. She has since had a full vet workup in Aug.
Cam M. is seeking:
Hi! I’m looking at getting a cage from you guys, Indoor Aviary Flight Cage for Small Birds by Prevue F040 Black, and we already have our two boy budgies, and I was wondering if this cage has any smaller openings?
Where we could attach their out of cage feeder and bath container?
Mary H. needs advice:
Can you recommend a shallow parakeet feeder bowl?
The one I have is 2 1/4 ” deep and the birds have to lean all the way in to eat.
Also, I can’t tell when the food is gone and just hulls left.
I tried an ‘auto feeder’ but the seed doesn’t feed down properly.
Thank you very much
Gloria W. would like to know:
My female 3 yr old bird seems afraid of heights.
I have bought her 3 different cages as she’s aged and the latest is maybe 20 long 18 wide and 30 high.
Would a flight cage for finches be ok for her?
Susan S. is concerned about supplements for her green cheek conure:
I have a green cheek conure named Jax.
He will be 8 years old in December.
He was acting lethargic and ill.
I purchased Nekton-S multi-vitamin and put it in his drinking water.
Linda C. is curious:
I have a 25-year-old Hahns macaw.
I feed him a mix of Pretty Bird medium select pellets and Doctor Foster and Smith cockatiel seed.
I also have a separate side dish that has Tropimix formula for small parrots in his cage.
In addition, I give him fresh veggies, eggs, grapes, etc. twice a day.
Joyce D. is seeking:
I’m looking for a cagemate for my female budgie after the recent loss of her male partner.
One likely young bird has had the long feathers on his sides clipped by Petsmart.
Stacey W. relates:
Hi! I have a beautiful 2 1/2-year-old caique named Sir Herbert (Herbie for short).
And he has been exhibiting increasingly excessive scratching over the past months.

Hi Mitch,
In response to the comment about travel cages, I have found a solution.
My Senegal parrot (Gonzo) did not like to hang out in a smaller cage.
So I got her a reasonably-sized cage that I can use for her travel or if she needs to stay with someone.
I can drive with it and strap the cage into a seat belt.
I set it up in another room and left the cage door open. She has started playing inside it and seems to like it.
Now, with COVID-19, I am working from home, and need it to be quiet when I’m on the phone.
