I live in North-central texas, which is about 105 degrees in the summer and usually 40-60 degrees in winter. (fahrenheit) This is a huge problem because I am planning on building aviaries for macaws, african greys, cockatoos, amazons, parakeets, cockatiels, conures, and doves. I don't know what...
Hello all! I have a small farm with a lot of rescues on it! From cats to goats to lovebirds and even 1 little, adorable, hognose snake!
I finally finished building the Peacock Palace, next project is Ducks Digs which will be beside our little pond! In the meantime, I have been talking to my...
This thread is for all caged birds and parrots!!!! I think there might already be one but it’s long dead and we were starting to hijack the dog thread so I figured I’d make a new one so we can continue the discussion here :lau
I used to have parakeets (budgies) but had to rehome them last year...

So I'm thinking about building this Aviary, but I'm wondering if I'd need an inside one for them? During winter it can get between 27 and 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Would I need an inside enclosure for them or just put out small shelthers for them inside the aviary?
(Picture isnt mine, but this is...

To start, I love parrots. I am from Australia, the land of parrots and have grown up seeing wild cockatoos and lorikeets. I now have parrots of my own, all natives; cockatiels, a budgie, princess parrots, a bourke's parrot and currently three crazy galahs I'm fostering. I love having them and...
Before I start, please understand I do not want to cause debates. I am not poking fingers at people or trying to make parrot owners feel bad for keeping parrots (I am a parrot owner myself). I want people to share their opinions kindly as I feel the parrot community is divided enough and doesn't...
Hi guys! I was just curious because our family is thinking of getting another parrot since our last 2 keets passed away of old age a few years back and we're thinking of getting a parrotlet. But due to our location there are literally ZERO parrot breeders :'c and looking online I noticed those...

Hey everyone,
I have five budgies and really need to train them but I can't find anything online for "How to train five budgies who won't even come near you."
One of them is about 5 months, two are about 3 months, and two are about 1 month. One of my one month year olds has recently had a leg...
Hi, just wondering about keep species of parrots (budgies, cockatiels, parrotlets, macaws, etc.) outdoors. If this is possible what are the best types/species for this setup?
A book about a man and his wife falling in love with over a dozen animals in their marriage. They adopt parrots, ducks, turkeys, cats, rabbits, doves, and more! I found that this book was a real page turner!
Hi everybody!
My name is Kate and I have been into animal husbandry for years. My love of birds started with my first budgie, Freddy, and then I adopted several more feathered friends. Right now our family consists my quaker parrot Ozzy, my lovebird Chirpy, and my green cheek conure Agrippa...
