Karen P. asks,
I have a 28-year-old blue and gold macaw.
We have had her for 18 years.
She has been bare-chested most of her life.
Her big perch is in the family room, which is quite large with a cathedral ceiling.
It is hard to keep her warm.
In response to our Nov 4th 2019 Birdie Brunch

I agree that birds will land on any perch in the wild, but caged life is different, they have to sit on the same perch all day so it needs to be comfortable, I do gymnastics and pole so I know how uncomfortable and painful it is when the pole is too wide I can’t work with it.Â
Hi Mitch
I’ve been enjoying your emails for some time now.
I have an umbrella and a citron cockatoo.
We’ve been searching for two manzanita branches and just haven’t found the perfect ones yet.
Would you be able to direct me in the right direction to find a good and safe branch for them?
Hi, Mitch,
I spoke to you about my parakeet’s diet and you were going to send me some helpful info. Thanks! Steve (more…)

Hello
I read your blog of refurbishing cages.Â
I have an old California Cage that I LOVE. it is rusting, I am looking to have it sandblasted and powder coated.
Sue asks
I got two Lovebirds.
What kind of Christmas Tree & decorations can I put up?
No tiny lights I’m thinking.
And for house plants, no amaryllis, holly, or poinsettias.

Hello.
I have two Sulcata tortoises aka African spurred tortoise (approx 80 lbs each) which I recently took in when their owner could no longer care for them.

Re: Ringnecks, Keto, and all that.
Dear Mitch,
I hope that all is well with you, yours and Keto.
I’ve watched the videos and showed them to others a few times now.
I think that I might have found a good breeder who handles the babies so they’re not terrified in their new home.
Lori Seaton asks: Like the new format. I have asthma. Dr. Suggest that I get rid of our 2 birds… LOl not going to happen.
I had all the problems before we got the birds. What kind of air cleaner is best. We rent our apartment. Thank You.
