Born in captivity and therefore well adapted to live at home. Keeping these birds in an apartment is not difficult, they are hardy and unpretentious.

The light part of the room is most suitable for keeping parrots. However, the cage should not be placed very close to the window, so that there is no draft, which these birds are very afraid of, and also near heating appliances. The cage should be placed at the height of human growth or slightly lower. So it is more convenient to get out of it and watch your pet. In the room where the birds are, you can not smoke, cigarette smoke is harmful to birds.

For most types of parrots great importance has a daylight hours, which should be 15-16 hours a day. IN short days autumn and winter, you need to turn on additional electric lighting. For a room with an area of ​​​​15-18 square meters. m requires an illumination of 100-150 W, then the parrots will feel great and have time to eat daily allowance stern. In general, the more light, especially sunlight, the better the feathered pets feel.

The cage for keeping your parrot or for a couple should be large enough so that the occupants can fly a little in it. Its dimensions can be estimated as follows: it must be at least 5 times longer than the bird itself, for example, with a parrot body length of 18–20 cm, the cage must be at least 90–100 cm in length, the corresponding width and be at least 60, and preferably 80 cm. Only cells of this size can be considered as appropriate this species birds.


Standard cages with bars around the perimeter have both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, there is a lot of light in such a cage and the parrot in it has the ability to climb the transverse bars. A bird living in an apartment with people appreciates a great view. But on the other hand, the inhabitant of such a cage is accessible to drafts and does not have a reliable, quiet corner where he could retire if he wishes. But this is easily helped by darkening some part of the cage with plants or a curtain.

We should not forget that the cage door must have a reliable lock so that the parrot in the cage cannot open or break it, because a parrot in an apartment without supervision can do a lot of trouble, and it can suffer for many reasons. As constipation on the cage door, many owners use small locks with a key, metal carbines or powerful springs, which the bird is not able to wring out.

Caring for parrots consists of daily cleaning in the cage. It is necessary to remove debris, scrape off adhering dirt and litter from the sides, brush off dust and rubbish with a soft brush. Having pulled out the pallet, wipe it with a damp cloth, replace the litter. Washing bird dishes hot water with the addition of soda or special solutions for washing dishes, then wiped dry. Feeders for grain mixtures are thoroughly cleaned of food debris, wiped with a clean cloth, filled with a daily feed rate and put in place. Wet feeders and drinkers are washed daily with hot water, and automatic drinkers are rinsed.


Cages should be completely cleaned at least once a week. The retractable tray is covered with clean river sand with a layer of 1.5-2 cm. It is better to pre-ignite it in the oven or rinse it with a solution of potassium permanganate and dry it. If it is not possible to change the sand frequently, the bottom of the cage can be covered with paper, but in this case the sand should be in a special feeder. Parrots use it as a gastrolith - for grinding roughage in the stomach. Sand should not be fine - this only clogs the stomach, not fulfilling its main function. It is better to use hygroscopic paper, such as newsprint, but you need to change it at least 2-3 times a week, otherwise mites or blood-sucking insects can start in it. It is also necessary to monitor the cleanliness of the perches, which are quickly contaminated with a layer of manure or feed.


But cage care alone is not enough, parrots need communication. By nature, they are pack creatures. They should not be kept isolated, they should feel like part of the family. In addition, the more time they spend outside the cage, the easier it will be to communicate with them. Of course, not everyone has the opportunity to keep a bird near him all day. In this case, let the bird out of the cage as soon as you get home. Wake up a little earlier in the morning to spend some time with your pet. Do not keep your parrot in the bedroom, where he will see you for a few minutes in the morning and an hour in the evening before going to bed. From boredom, a bird can start having problems, parrots begin to pluck feathers on themselves, sometimes fall into a deep depression.

For the same purpose, when keeping parrots, it is useful to place toys in a cage. You can make a swing yourself, a ring made of wood or light tin with a diameter of 5-6 cm, for small species, for example, hang on a thread from the ceiling rod of the cage, instead of a ring, you can strengthen the swinging perch. A bell with or without a mirror can be purchased at a pet store. As for the mirror, here the opinions of the owners of budgerigars are divided. Some believe that the mirror has a bad effect on the "psyche" of the bird, as it stimulates the sexual reflex. However, this is not always justified, in any case, you can experiment - if you notice that the mirror has a bad effect on the bird, then you can remove it. During learning to "talk" it is desirable that the bird does not have foreign objects in the cage. However, most "talking" birds give out their vocabulary repertoire in front of a mirror.


Caring for a parrot also includes feeding it, proper nutrition is its guarantee. The basis of nutrition and feeding of such pets is a grain mixture, consisting of about 70% - millet, different types, 10% - oats, 20% - mixtures usually include canary seed, hemp, flaxseed, some wheat, etc. Millet should be of different types: red, white, black, yellow. For these birds, it is not recommended to give seeds and nuts, the fact is that such food is very fatty for them. But grain feeds alone do not have a complete set of all nutrients necessary for the normal functioning of parrots. Therefore, from time to time it is necessary to give the birds additional and mineral feeds, but in smaller quantities than grains.


Useful and nutritious food for parrots - fresh grated carrots (not squeezed), mixed with semolina or white breadcrumbs. It is prepared quite simply. Grated carrots are mixed with crushed white breadcrumbs or semolina in such a ratio that, when mixed, it does not stick to the fingers. Grated carrots are indispensable in winter and spring, when there is little greenery. Green food, which is a source of vitamins and mineral salts for your pets, can be given to birds in unlimited quantities. They also love apples, dandelion leaves, wood lice, lettuce, cabbage. Dandelion leaves, for example, are consumed fresh in finely chopped form from early spring to late autumn.

In winter, you can sow oats, millet, canary seed, young shoots in boxes, which are readily eaten by birds. This is done as follows: earth is poured into two boxes 40x10x8 cm, placed on the windowsill so that there is more light for the growth of greenery. Sowing is carried out first in one box, and after 7-10 days, when the young shoots will have a height of 10-12 cm, and in the second. Greens are collected from the first box in parts (as many as needed per day), chopped and mixed with additional feed or set to be fed separately. As the greenery in the first box is consumed, it grows in the second, and the first is sown again. It turns out the so-called green conveyor until the very spring, when the first greenery appears.

For a normal life and good health? How to properly care for this bird?

Budgerigars need fresh air, a clean cage, good quality food and light. At the same time, when choosing a place in an apartment to install a cage, it is worth considering that parrots are afraid of drafts and do not tolerate stuffiness. You need to place the cage at the level of human growth, away from heating devices, a computer and a TV. The light day of a parrot should be 15-16 hours, which means that at night they need to turn on the light. Optimum temperature air for budgerigars is 18-20C.

The feathered cage should always be clean. General cleaning is done once a month. During this cleaning, the cage is thoroughly cleaned of all dirt and washed. For disinfection, the cage must be washed with soapy water, then rinsed well in clean water and rinse with a decoction of chamomile. The usual cleaning of the cage is done once a week, unless there is any reason to do it more often. The feeder and drinker must be kept clean and washed daily with detergent.

Since all birds have a fairly fast metabolism, even a short fast can lead to the death of a bird. That's why proper feeding plays very important role in caring for them. Considering that both hunger and overeating are dangerous for parrots, you need to give them enough food so that they eat up, but at the same time they do not choose tidbits from what they receive, but eat everything. Over time, you will be able to know quite well the amount of food your pet needs and stick to this norm.

The main food for parrots is a grain mixture. You can buy this mixture at any pet store. However, this is not enough to fully provide the bird's body with everything necessary. It is also necessary to give mineral feed, and additional feed in the form of cereals, boiled eggs, white bread, cottage cheese.

Cottage cheese is given to parrots in a dry form; egg finely chopped and mixed with semolina or crushed crackers, fresh carrots are rubbed on a fine grater, and also mixed with semolina.

Greens play an important role in the nutrition of parrots - this is a source of vitamins and minerals. Of all the available greens, parrots especially prefer apples, lettuce, dandelion leaves and cabbage. At the same time, in no case should parrots be given parsley - for them it is poison. It is necessary to constantly monitor the purity of the water in the drinking bowl, it must be changed every day.

Like all birds, parrots are subject to molting. The first molt in budgerigars occurs at the age of 4-6 months. If the molt is too intense, it is necessary to feed the parrot with eggshells, canary seed, give more greenery - all this contributes to a faster growth of plumage. Soda baths will also help in this case. To do this, a teaspoon of soda is diluted in a liter of water and the bird is carefully immersed in water, while trying not to wet her head.

Budgerigars love to bathe, so you can put a bath in the cage, or sometimes give the birds the opportunity to rummage through the wet grass, previously placed in a spacious bowl.

Parrots are always pecking at something. To meet this need, twigs must be placed in the cage deciduous trees. In addition, solid food and twigs help the parrot wear down its rapidly growing beak. And to improve digestion, there should always be clean sand in the cage (it is sieved and changed daily).

It is necessary to select the perches in the cage correctly and in size. If the perch for the parrot is too thin or, conversely, too thick, this contributes to the rapid growth of nails that are too long, which will have to be shortened. For this, it is better to purchase special tweezers in advance.

Parrot, you need to properly equip the cage. It should have at least two strong perches, a drinking bowl, a feeder and a bathing container. Hang special rings on which the feathered pet will swing.

The cage with the bird should be located away from the sun and drafts. Keep the parrot away from the computer, provide an opportunity for your pet to hide from bright rays in the shade.

It is desirable that the feeder and drinker be made of porcelain or glass. It is better to defend the water first so that the chlorine evaporates, then just pour it into the drinker. Water needs to be changed daily warm time years, twice a day. In spring and autumn, it is recommended to add three drops of fresh lemon juice to the drinker, which helps to strengthen the feather cover and disinfects the water. Every day, wash the drinker and feeder with hot water with food, wipe dry.

Nutrition should be balanced, so several feeders should be placed in the cage (for grain, fresh fruits and vegetables). One adult is enough per day for two teaspoons of a grain mixture, which consists mainly of oats, millet, canary seed, sunflower seeds. You can give feathered cereals cooked in water, salad, fresh herbs, cottage cheese, germinated cereals. To satisfy the body of a bird in protein, give your pet a finely chopped chicken egg. To ensure a good digestion process, the parrot needs clean sand without various impurities.

Parrots enliven our home, filling it with melodious and joyful sounds. According to Darwin, by their presence, birds improve the mood and well-being of a person, give emotional pleasure. Budgerigars are less demanding on the conditions of care and feeding than their large counterparts (zhako, cockatoo).
