aviary

Hello! I’m looking for some pigeons for 2 of my little sister’s aviary! They are 9 and 4. We are looking to get some fantails or any fancy breed! Even mixed breed pigeons would be great! We aren’t looking to spend a lot of money on birds and or shipping as we got scammed $97 from trying to buy...

Do you use bird netting to protect your chickens from hawks? I’d like to cover my entire yard and have been watching some videos. I’ll attach one here: If you can offer advice or share photos of your netting, I’d be really grateful!!

My husband and I want to build an aviary for our Muscovies. The plan is a 50ft x 50ft around 7ft tall. But we’re still in the learning stages on building stuff. Any advice on materials, tutorial videos and/or best mesh to enclose it? We want this thing to be huge. Also any advice or pointers...

Hi everyone! I'm building a pheasant enclosure and am wondering what everybody uses as roofing material, and what predator proofing measures you have taken! I'm in the UK so there aren't as many predators as there are in places like the US but I'm definitely not taking any chances. I will be...

Hi everyone! This is my first post here. I have decided to get into keeping Coturnix quail for their eggs. I've decided to go with an aviary style enclosure, because from my research, a wire-bottom cage can harm their feet, and a hutch ceiling is too low. I also like being able to observe the...

Immediately after finishing construction on the aviary, I started designing an expansion. It started small, just a brooder or a breeding pen. But then "quail math" struck—I realized it's not a matter of if I'll get more quail, but when. The more I thought about it, the more inadequate the...

I'm going to the Pennsylvania Aviculture Society Tailgate later this September! I am so excited to get involved and am looking to possibly get a few more birds! :D I'm wondering what species can live with pheasants that are perhaps lower to the ground or higher. Does that make any sense...

Hello. I live in a rural part of Chile, though I am not Chilean. I have a large aviary that I built for my pet peacock two years go. Since then my aviary has expanded, I acquired a few more birds, including a girl pea and some lovely chickens. Last week I was gifted a pair of canaries, both...

Can a single dove (like a diamond, cape, or ringneck) live with a single male canary? What about a single pigeon living with a aungle male canary? I know canaries are solitary birds but people keep them in aviaries just fine. Would the dove or pigeon be sad it didn't have a friend of the same...

Hey! I’ve been keeping cots but I was thinking about getting a pair of buttons. Has anyone built an armour style aviary? Would this be ideal for buttons? I just want a pretty display cage for them, plus it could be way more ventilated than an aquarium. This project will probably be a while off...

hey there, one of my females has been very broody for a month and finally yesterday 3 chicks were hatched. I separated the mother and chicks from the other quails immediately but I just wanted opinions on whether leaving the chicks with the mother is a safe thing to do? She is constntly sitting...

I'm looking to get 3-4 quail to start with and currently in the planning stages for my outdoor aviary. I'd like to do a natural setting for them and would like to get an opinion on the type of flooring for them. What would be the easiest to maintain? Should I just put the aviary on dirt and...

So I'm building a coop for my 10 Bobwhite Quail. (2 Males, 8 Females) I've had Bobs before and decided I missed their sweetness, so here I am. I'm just wondering if my dimensions are big enough, because I just heard about Boinking, and I don't want to lose any birds from it. My old quail would...

I have a big aviary (30x30x30ft) that i would like to house peacocks and male pheasants. Is it possible to house all those males and not have angry birds? Side note: there will be no females at all.

I bought a pair of gouldian finches from a very well know avairy shop with 5 stars and always good reviews. After 2 days i came out and saw one of the finches dead on the ground. The shop gave me anothet gouldian as a refund, and now just then i see the older finch i got dead to. No other of my...

I currently have a pair of king quails, 2 pairs of zeba finches, 1 of diamond doves and a pair of Gouldian Finches. I'm wondering what other birds and quails i can add into my avairy that get along with the birds that are already in there (other species of finches to), thanks.

Im going to get a pair of Japanese Quails to put in my aviary. I've been told by some people that these quails have lost the instinct to incubate their own eggs while others have said that they do sit on them?

I currently have 2 pairs of zebra finches, 1 pair of diamond doves and king quail in my aviary. I would like to have 1 pair each of budgies and cockatiels in there too but i dont know if its safe?

Ive got a new aviary and found out and cant fit it into my backyard. Therefore i have to put it on my concrete floored carport. Im getting finches, doves, canaries and quails in it. What type of flooring would be best put in there for them?

Im moving next week and im getting a new aviary and more birds. I want to get a mixture of species but i dont know who's okay with who. I want to get some quails, budgies, a couple of diamond doves, and the zebra finches i already have.
