We’re going to start out with one of our favorite product lines Lixit. Do you really need a water bottle? Birds being the messy creatures that they are will poop in their water dishes regardless of placement.

This means the stray food, the poop, and other contaminants which carry bacteria get ingested by your bird. One of the easiest ways to overcome these problems is to install a Lixit water bottle in your birdcage.

Lixit water bottles enable you to introduce water simply for bathing and avoid having to change your bird’s drinking water throughout the day in order to keep it clean.

Try this:

1.WASTEFUL.. Buy $30 worth of groceries and throw $24 worth in the trash as soon as you arrive home. Do this several times a month. Parrots require fresh food in addition to pellets (not seeds) and are wasteful eaters. If you can’t afford the wastefulness of a parrot, you can’t afford the parrot.

Foraging Toys for Two Very Large Moluccan Cockatoos

I’m looking for foraging toys for my two very large Moluccan cockatoos. All the ones on your website seem to be for much smaller birds. Please let me know if you haven’t appropriate toys.

Dear Lea

I know Moluccan cockatoos, they are very strong. It can be very difficult to find good toys for them.

"Flying South" Bird Travel Carrier

“Flying South” Bird Travel Carrier

This product is no longer available as of 9/12/2010

Hello,

Just to share a cautionary story, I have had several of these carriers but they do wear out. Last week, the large zipper opened while we were out and my parrot inside dropped 180 degrees backwards and upside down. No harm done but for those who are on a bike in traffic or have noticed some wear on these zippers, a couple large safety pins or some other reinforcement is my recommendation.

Kind regards,

Suzanne and “Errol”

Why Does My Bird Hate Bird Toys?

How the heck should I know? Birds like people have their own likes & dislikes but with birds, it can get a little more complicated. Did you know that even the time of day can affect how your bird accepts items in its cage?

Seeking a Play Stand for My Macaw Parrot

Click here for more info on this parrot play stand

The AE5-2828 is a great Macaw stand because we were told by many Macaw owners it’s a great Macaw bird play stand. Our responsibility is to the birds, “we took them out of the sky and it’s our obligation to provide the best care possible” our mission statement.

The dowel perch may be a tad small for Macaws feet but I wouldn’t dwell on it. We’re told by many AE5-2828 buyers “the only place he stands is on the side of it” on cold tubular steel having a smaller diameter than either of the perch we recommend introducing toys and or food to the ring area in an attempt to bring him to the center.
