Best 5 Pet Birds

the owner of this blog is alo promoting a game called singstar for ps2 with microphes and a finches information booklet ==================================================================== Ever wonder what kind of pet birds are the best for you? Here are five introductions to five pet birds that would make a great companion for you and your family: 1. Parakeets, known as budgies or budgerigars, are arguably the most popular pet parrots. They make for a great choice as they are friendly with children when tamed and caring for them are relatively simple and easy. Keep in mind however that they are quite the social kind and require frequent interaction. It's probably a good idea to purchase two of these feathered darlings as you can get much joy watching them interact with each other. They live about 12 to 20 years with your tender loving care. 2. Cockatiels, are medium sized parrots who claim Australia as their home country. What's delightful about these feathered creatures are that they can learn to talk and sing. Like Parakeets, they can be good with children but tend to be more clam. With their lively orange spots on their cheeks, you would be hard pressed to not show your affection towards these birds. Cockatiels can live up to 15 to 30 or more years. 3. Sun Conures, are another medium sized parrots that display colorful array of feathers. Like Cockatiels they can learn to talk and sing but tend to accompany their tricks also with a large shriek to signal others of dangers or to show that they are unhappy. Of the five parrots introduced here, they are hands down most colorful and majestic to observe. 4. Parrotlets, may be small in size but pack a jolt of energy. Like the rest of the parrots, they possess high level of intelligence and carry an attitude much like their bigger cousins.Unlike Sun Conures, they're well behaved in terms of volume level which makes them quite ideal for apartment dwellers. 5. African greys, are by far the most difficult of the five to maintain and care for but definitely among the most rewarding. With some dedication and love, these winged buddies can learn numerous amount of words and sounds. As they are highly intelligent, they tend to bore easily and so will require plenty of attention. They can live as long as 100 years or more! It is recommended that when you do decide to welcome these beautiful creatures to your homes, you obtain a young, hand-fed birds that will be easy to train and tame. With proper care and love, these pet birds will fast become adoring companions in your life.

Lonely Finches are Unhealthy Finches

Nearly all the members of the animal kingdom (save for a few special species) are social animals.

 

Finches are no exception; these birds need the companionship not only of the human owner but of other birds as well (preferably, another bird from the same species). So when you are ready to buy from a breeder or a pet shop, we highly recommend that you purchase at least two finches.

 

If you can, purchase two healthy male and female finches so you can also breed the birds later on. Avian offspring will easily come if the cage or aviary is constructed well and you are able to provide good lighting, adequate heat, and a healthy combination of seeds and live food items.

 

If you buy a single finch and place that animal in a small cage, the finch will experience stress and loneliness. You will not be able to fully enjoy the company of this exotic bird because it is pining for the companionship of its own species.

 

Often, finches can get used to other species of birds just so it can have someone to interact with inside the artificial habitat. Species like zebra finches are not picky with companions; as long as there are other birds in the cage or aviary, the zebra finch is relatively happy. So when you are buying a finch, always ask for at least two of each species.

How Ready Is Your Home For A Finch?

Raising finches can be one of the most rewarding experiences in the world. A well-loved and healthy finch can become a constant, caring companion. Though finches cannot be as tame as other pet birds like parrots, these birds can be taught to eat from your hands and perch on your shoulder.  Finches are also shy by nature and do not nip people’s fingers if they have adapted well to their life with new owners.

 

But the big question here is, are you ready to take care of these exotic birds? Here are some guiding questions to help you determine your level of preparedness:

 

  1. Are you ok with the fact that finches, even in a caged setting, will still show facets of finches in the wild? As we have mentioned earlier, finches are not as tame as other pet birds like canaries.

 

  1. Do you have space at home for a large cage or mini-aviary? Finches cannot be placed in small cages or purchased singly without a male of female companion. If you are going to take care of finches, you need to have adequate space for their own home.

 

  1. Are you prepared to clean their cage or aviary on a daily basis? Finches are very active birds and can make a real mess in their cage in a short period of time. Any mess inside the cage should be cleaned to prevent diseases from spreading.

 

  1. Do you have the extra budget to buy special food, vitamin supplements and medicine for your finches, if need be? Finches need a combination of natural foods like seeds and live food (larvae) to be healthy.

Caring For Your Kittens

There is no doubt that kittens are absolutely adorable but they also require proper handling and care, especially in the early days to avoid both cat health problems and cat behavior problems. Whilst they are not really difficult to look after, they require certain attention to specific areas. This article examines some of the things that you need to take note of before getting a kitten.

Visit to the Vet

Before bringing your kitten home or immediately thereafter, make sure that you schedule a visit to the vet. It is important to check your kitten for major as well as minor cat health problems and also discuss with your vet its vaccination schedule. This will ensure a healthy cat in the long run.

Creating a Place for the Kitten

Similar to any new member of your family, kittens too require their own space in your home. It is important that this chosen place is comfortable, fun and safe for the kitten. Shopping for a bed for your kitten to sleep on or toys to play with is equally important when bringing home your new pet. Apart from ensuring that they enjoy their surroundings, new toys should be able to keep them occupied and not encourage them to attack your expensive and precious furniture.

Feeding Your Kitten

Kittens eat solid food at about four weeks of age and hence you can start with ready made cat food that is available over the counter. Make sure that all the necessary ingredients for good health and growth are in the chosen cat food. You can supplement her diet at times with minced meat or fish or even chicken but it is important to understand that this does not give kittens all the nutrition it requires.

House Training Your Kitten

Kittens are often litter trained by their mothers but in rare cases when you get one that is not, it is important to start litter training immediately. Signs such as sudden panic, vocal outburst, digging in bed or paper display the need to go to toilet and should be carefully considered when litter training. Praising your kitten for using the litter box correctly will help in training your kitten faster.

While these are just a small selection of things that you need to do to get involved in caring for your kittens, we hope that it's a good starting point for new cat owners. Remember that you will have to cat proof your home before bringing home any kittens so as to minimize any damage to your furniture. Good luck!
