Cheap hanging bird cages?

Jun 26, 2008 by Wolf-lover | Posted in Birds

My mom is alergic to birds and I want an outdoor bird but I have a cat so it would have to be a hanging cage. Any sugestions?
I rent a basement apartment and my cat is outdoors. I could possibly keep it upstairs or at ny dad's house.
The bird I want is a love dove.

i do not suggest that you have a bird at all.

this is not a proper environment for one.

outdoor birds are meant to be wild and domesticated birds are meant to be inside and protected from predators. if you cannot provide a proper home and a safe environment you should not get one at all.

birds require much education and knowledge and an avian vet for basic care. i highly suggest you do a LOT and I mean a LOT of reading up on all birds in general. you can also talk to an avian vet for free about this and I bet you he/she will tell you the same exact thing.

sorry.

The concept of foraging and parrot enrichment has been a source of great interest and news in the avicultural community.

Pet bird owners are being taught the importance of providing daily enrichment for their pet birds, and studies are showing how beneficial the act of foraging can be for a caged bird. Do you know, in the wild, many birds will actively forage for 3-8 hours per day? In our homes, our birds are provided with all they need, including a big bowl of food and water. The guesswork is completely taken out of the equation. Convenient for us, bad for them. So what can we do about it?

While there are many good foraging and enrichment sources out there, one thing they fail to mention is this: how time consuming these activities can be for the human. some of the more involved enrichment activities can take time and planning to be able to implement

and are not easily replicable once the bird has gotten through with it. Its not feasible for most working humans to be able to put their birds on a complete foraging system, much less consistently provide foraging enrichments on a daily basis.

So what is a bird owner to do?

The answer? Easier then it sounds- find simple foraging solutions that will entertain your bird, are easily replicable for you, and not put a strain on your budget.

Is this possible? Of course it is! The following are five simple, easy, and engaging foraging activates that fulfill those requirements.

1) Repeat after me.. a skewer is your best friend. Skewers such as the ones made available by  Jungle Talk are stainless steel wonders of the avian world. Simple in design, easy on the budget yet they can be used so many different ways! String your birds fresh fruit and veggies on this skewer and hang in the cage.

You can even drill nuts and dried fruits to assemble on the skewer. Outside of any food preparation, this toy takes little to no time

at all and can be refilled to put in the cage another day.
