Creating a happy and enriching environment for your pet birds involves meeting their physical, mental, and social needs. Different species of birds have different needs but in general, here’s how to keep your birds happy.
Make sure your bird’s cage is large enough to fly/climb or jump around in the room. Most parrots-kinds of birds enjoy chewing toys and puzzles. So give them different kinds of toys and puzzles to see what kinds your birds prefer to play with. Make sure to free your bird out of the cage to feel good and happy and enjoy their freedom. Give the cage and perches a good wipe-down with unscented soap and water every week to keep it clean. Also, take out everything and clean the cage completely while disinfecting it at least once a month. Healthy interaction with your bird is a great way to keep your bird active and happy. Make sure that you have a good interaction with your pet birds and a happy and healthy relationship with them. Also, make sure that you’re watching your bird’s stress levels. Make sure to make them feel completely okay by checking him out at times. If you’re not entirely sure if they’re stressed, but you see some obvious signs, like screaming or plucking, then you have to consult a vet right away. This is an integral part of keeping your bird happy. At most times, a seed mix from a pet store isn’t enough. You have to incorporate formulated pellets, whole grains, and fruits & vegetables.
