Re: Caged birds
The ones that are bred in captivity are doomed to life in pet shops or aviaries? People who buy and look after those birds usually improve the lot of such a bird, not make it worse. It can be said that birds should not bred in captivity but since they are, what do you think might happen to them unless somebody buys them. Wrung necks in some cases most likely.Re: Caged birds
Re: Caged birds
I don't have any caged birds but have done in the past. They were budgies. I think we enjoyed each others company pretty well. I've noticed much the same thing with other people and their pet birds. Most let them fly around the room.Re: Caged birds
An aunt had a canary and a couple of budgerigars. I used to help clean their cages when staying while they perched on the furniture or lampshade. She had them for some years. The canary was always singing and the two budgies could imitate loads from the radio. Loved to watch them out of the cages.Re: Caged birds
If you have a pet bird and let it fly around the room, they like to return to their cage. It's where all their creature comforts are such as food, water, grit, and suitable perches for sleeping. When they are not in it, they often like to sit on top of it. You can leave food elsewhere but it will still want to go back to the cage. Leave the cage door open and it won't always want to come out. The cage is not necessarily the bad place it is thought to be.Re: Caged birds
