Fresh Daily!

When it comes to pet or aviary birds there is one word of advice that I believe is more important than any other!

Yes, if I could only say one thing to a new parrot owner regarding the bird's care it could be done in one word!

That one word? It is DAILY

Ask me anything about bird care and I can answer with that word!

How often does the bird need fresh water or a water change? DAILY I would say.

How often should i replenish the cockatiel pellets? Again, my answer would be DAILY!

How do I know when my bird's wings need a trim? Check them DAILY! It only takes a tiny amount of growth on one or two feathers for your bird to get enough 'lift' to fly clean away out the door!

DAILY covers most bird care questions. For more answers about bird care visit my page on the Pet Directory website.
