Is there a type of bird cage for parakeets. We have two that are in a basic counter top cage but I wanted to get a bigger one. I was told not to get one with dome top. Is this correct?
Hello! You absolutely can get a dome top cage! The bigger the better for birds, as exercise is very important to their physical and psychological health. The major thing to consider if the bar spacing. You don’t want the parakeets to be able to get their heads through the bars, so stick with 1/4-1/2 inch spacing to be safe. Some big cages have wider spacing, around 1 inch and this may be too wide for your birds. Also, make sure the cage is high quality powder coated and not exposed metal, as zinc and lead exposure can be an issue with wrought iron or hand made cages. Good luck!

Hi, let's say I have bought another female, baby, cockatiel. What do I do afterwards? Do I immediately get them to meet each other? Do I run a few checks on the new parrot? Get them another cage or...? Please tell me everything I need to know about g
That's a lot of questions! When getting a new bird, it is best to keep them in a separate cage for a few weeks (quarantine) to make sure they do not spread any illness to each other. Once the new bird checks out safe, you can keep them near each other to get used to hearing/seeing each other, and then gradually introduce them, whether on a shared play pen, or in a cage that is large enough to comfortably house both. Make sure you have extra food and water dishes, toys, perches, etc so that they cannot fight over these resources or become territorial. Each bird will have different markings depending on the type of coloration the bird is (there are different varieties of markings) so this will greatly depend on if you purchase a bird with similar markings or not.

Where is the best place for me to put my bird cage?
Hello. Jumbo will benefit from being where the action is. The living room or family room is often a great place for your bird since they will feel a part of the family and get to spend more time with you there. If space is an issue in the living room, the cage could be put in a bedroom or office and a smaller play stand can be set up in the living room. That way, the bird has a quiet room for sleep but can be on the play stand for more interaction through the day. I would avoid putting a cage in the kitchen because of the bird dangers that exist there. Hot stove tops, Teflon pans, etc all can be extremely harmful or fatal for birds. Wherever you locate the cage, make sure it’s free of drafts and that other family pets can’t access the cage or pose harm to Jumbo. Good luck!

I am looking for a new pet and would love a bird. What bird breed do you recommend that would be most loyal, dog-like, enjoy being played with, social, etc?
Thanks for reaching out. Choosing a smaller of the parrot species if probably the best. Cockatiels, budgieregars are lovebirds can be great companions, are intelligent and fairly easy to care for. Longevity should be considered, as cockatiels can easily live into their 20s, and possibly longer. Hand-reared parrots tend to be more socialized towards humans, but can also lack the some bird-like traits. Do a little research, visit some pet stores. Good luck.

My lovebird is new and young, got him yesterday and I think he’s like 24 weeks or so old, he has been sitting at the bottom of the cage, sleeping a lot, even throughout the day, is this just where he is nervous or is he sick?
Thanks for reaching out about Blitz. Even though moving to a new home is very stressful, this seems more than stress. Concerns over an underlying disease needs to be considered and a veterinary visit is highly recommended. Providing heat support for now might give some comfort. Place a towel on bottom of cage for perching. Provide food and water within reach. Good luck.
