Parakeet Cages

I have found that most of the small bird cages are really to small for a parakeet. Shopping around on the best price for a big cage, will make your birds happy, since it gives them room to flap their wings or maybe even fly some. I have a real big cage for 3 of my birds, and they love it, and I have it filled with toys.

When I bought my Parakeets I bought them for the wrong reason and really never thought much about big cages or other things to make these little birds happy. I bought them to breed them and sell the baby's. It wasn't long after taking care of these little birds, that I started seeing them as great pets, and wanted to give them a great home. I no longer want to breed them, since there are so many risk of the female or baby's dieing.

I think to many people might think like I use to and buy these pet Parakeets as breeding machines, and if that's your reason, make sure you have the funds to have your birds treated just in case something goes wrong.

Another thing I do, is let my Parakeets out for most of the day. They are out for around 8 hours a day playing on a bird playground in a spare room. I put a bowl of seeds and a dish full of water, and turn the radio on and let them play. They are no trouble and they enjoy it. After your birds get tamed down, let them out, so they can stretch their legs and flap their wings. Your birds will love you for it.
