Playtime Recommendations
Interacting with your bird is every bit as important as providing an interesting environment. The secret to keeping your bird happy is the frequency of attention, not the duration. A few minutes of attention several times daily works wonders to relieve stress. Mental growth comes from engaging in a variety of life experiences. Experiment to discover the types of toys your bird finds the most interesting and challenging. Keep in mind that no matter which toys you provide, and regardless of how intriguing, your bird will eventually tire of them. It is important not to place too many toys in the cage at once, which may over-stimulate your bird and cause stress. It's better to choose a select few and to rotate them every few days.

Tips to Encourage Foraging

Foraging, the collective activity during which your bird searches for and locates food, is an essential part of natural bird behavior. Encourage foraging with these simple tips.

Prevent Feather Picking

Feather picking, or plucking, can be a very serious problem for your pet bird. It's important to visit your veterinarian and help to keep your bird active to prevent boredom. Learn more >

Tips for a Stress-Free Environment

If your bird is under constant stress, it may lead to fatigue, illness, weight loss, a weakened immune system, deteriorated plumage, or more. Protect your precious pet from the negative effects of stress.

Keep Bird Toys and Accessories Clean

Even in the cleanest cage, unclean toys and accessories increase the likelihood of transmitting harmful bacteria and disease. We recommend you clean toys and accessories weekly, right along with your cage-cleaning regimen.
