This question comes from the Google My Business community.

Unfortunately Google sets character limitations in the answer box and I felt compelled to provide a well rounded solution.

Thus you found your way to our excellent blog on nothing but pet birds and captive bird care.

we do not have regular screening up because we were afraid it would keep out the UV Light.

We don’t generally interact with mainstream bird rescue organizations.

The last bird club/rescue meeting I spoke at began with a police presence called by the current president trying to forcibly remove the former president, who wouldn’t leave.

The next 15 minutes resulted in parliamentary maneuvers so legal action could be brought against the former bird rescue president.

We’ve seen that a lot over the years.

Which is why we mainly work with private rescues and bird rescue initiatives.

Barbara Writes,

I love the new format so much, Mitch.

And I have a question regarding the video of the cockatoo and sun conure. How do you know when it’s safe to let them be together like that?

Is it unsafe to have a cockatoo in your home and a macaw, Given that many macaws are susceptible to asthma? Following up, is there any sort of test a macaw could have done to identify asthma?

Macaw Asthma aka Macaw Respiratory Hypersensitivity disease is found in several species of macaws but is especially prevalent with blue and gold macaws.

Hello,

I love your birdie brunch and read it first thing every Sunday. Thank you!

I hope you can help me.

I have an 8 yr. old white-bellied Caique.

Conrad has owned me since he was 3 months old.

I am also a strong proponent of flighted birds (seems to me they were made that way), so Conrad is fully-flighted.

What size cage is the minimum size for one small budgie?

The experts have all sorts of rules on proper cage sizing.

“It needs to be this size and shape in height”.

At first I thought to myself “this’ll be fun.”

Once I started the project it was a bit more difficult than I forecasted.

I originally started with 9 YouTube channels but some favorites needed to be included not simply based upon numbers.

For those who are not following on us Facebook or our YouTube channel, you’ll note that we are ramping up our use of Fid-eo to better communicate caged bird care.

Were not going to start with bird bites because we’ll be talking about several first-aid challenges you may face having a bird or two in your home for several decades.

Everyone likes to think of themselves as being prepared for disaster and certainly life’s cuts and scrapes.

I’ve personally sutured a dog in a garage (after 5 minutes of training by my vet) 🙂
