Birds ?
Love em
Have 2 budgies
My advice ?
Dont get a bird
#i just spent an hour and a half cleaning their cages and my legs HURT#they are MENACES and they WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS#and they make SUCH A MESS#but i would literally die for my birds#whenever i see a bug and i wanna go hide downstairs my first thought is#what if it gets near the birds i dont want that thing near my birds#if you do get a bird do research#be prepared BEFORE going to get one#birds need BIG BIG cages to fly and frolick#they need toys that you swap and move around every so often#my birds like mirrors so maybe one of those#make sure they get fruits and vegetables eating only seeds is unhealthy#if your bird wont eat fruit/veggies get pellets that have the vitamins#they need a cuttlebone to keep their beak from getting too long#and you can use sandpapery feeling things to put on perchs so their claws get manicured too#birds are loud and they will fly dont yell at them for doing it#seriously dont clip your birds wings its very stressful#if you do too much its essentially like declawing a cat#you can do a little bit if you REALLY need to#but if they arent in any harm from flying then leave their wings alone#im very anti-clipping but will excuse it if its for the birds safety#also dont touch the birds wings or backs to pet them#that will arouse them#if you wanna pet the bird give gentle scritchies on the head#and you can also gently touch their bellies#mostly to urge them to step on your finger#some birds dont wanna be touched and thats fine#you can be close by; talk to it; give treats; that kinda stuff to bond#speaking of treats id probably give them millet like once a week#and obviously after doing something stressful or to train them to do something
