Are your indoor aviaries suitable for outdoor use?
Any articles on letting amazon have outdoor time in summer?
We live in SIL.
Seemed like last time I put him out he had some allergies around his eyes.

How do I keep my bird’s dander down?
Should I put a humidifier or air purifiers, in my birds’ room

My bird is a plucker and your recent article about lighting is something I’d like to try.
I’m not sure what full-spectrum light to purchase as he has a cage that has a solid play top.

Hello Catherine- wondering if you can help, maybe a suggestion, we know you can’t make a diagnosis.
We have a young (1 yr) female budgie that suddenly (overnight) became wobbly, has a hard time perching, tucks her head in her wing, and has lost interest in all budgies in the flight (12) even a best buddy.
Birds act out at the most instinctual level – they are not playing games.
The original Quora question was:
“What does it mean if your pet bird hides under a table/chair?”
Drugs like Lupron, Haldol, and Prozac were designed and tested by the FDA on humans.
Zero long-term testing of these drugs has been performed on any bird ~ ever.
The next time a veterinarian tells you “these are safe for your bird.”
Your response should be “please provide the data that backs up your statement.”
Joey L asks:
My Cockatiel, Woody, turned 25 this year.
Is that good for a cockatiel and why do you think he is still going strong?
Hello,
My male Amazon parrot who I’ve had for 30 years goes out of his way to attack my wife but not myself even though I grab him with gloved hands when he misbehaves.

I put money down on a conure that’s going to be coming home in two months.
I’ve been hearing not to put it in the room that you’re not going to be in regularly, but I have a small living room in my apartment and already have three chatty budgies.

Hi Mitch,
Seymour was picking on the left side lip of my stainless steel sink the other day and I think she removed the caulk.
As of last night, I have water leaking out of the area whenever I turn the water on more than a tiny stream.
