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?
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.

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.

I have a mystery! I have two African Greys.Â
But first, a bit of history.Â
Stephanie M. needs to know:
Hi. I am building a new house with a bird room (for a 30+-year-old female Moluccan cockatoo) located in the middle of the house (where all the excitement happens).
It will have a drain and water for easy cleaning, plus doors for nighttime.
It will also have appropriate lighting.
I will need to install wet-protected light fixtures (easiest is typical shower recessed 6″ fixtures that take standard Edison base bulbs).
That’s my question…if the room is 10’2″W x 5’6″D x 8′ 4″H, how many lights do I need?
Thanks for any advice you can lend
Jen M. seeks:
Hello! I’m looking for a homemade birdy bread recipe or parrot treat ball for my macaw and two umbrella Cockatoos.
Can you recommend a good recipe?
Hope you two are enjoying your new life in Indiana.
Best to you both!
Warmly,
Jen and the Flock
Jeanette H. queries: In addition to fresh fruits and veggies, what seed mixes, etc., do you recommend I provide for my 30-year-old Blue Front Amazon parrot, Willie? Dear Jeanette What…
Original question from Quora
William F. wants to know:
I have a question, is that appropriate?
If yes – I have had 2 cockatiels, m/f, for about 6 months.
They are about 2yrs old and happily paired.
A few months ago I even watched them having sex !!! (a shocker for me … :)) – but ….. no eggs, no little birds.
I do have a nesting box in the big cage, but neither bird has paid it the least attention.
