If you have a pet bird or are planning on getting one then you need to read this article. DealDash gives you 3 tips for owning a pet bird.

Birds are magnificent creatures. They are fun to play with and are (fairly) low maintenance. You don’t have to walk them or run after them, and they can do some amazing tricks. Although birds are low maintenance, it is best to take good care of your bird. A pet bird needs to have a friendly environment. You have probably thought about getting a bird before, but you don’t know how to take care of them. Here are 3 tips to take care of a bird, from DealDash.

Buy a Cage

Buying the right bird cage for your bird is important. Bird cages come in many different sizes, but it is important to get the largest one. You have to make sure that the bird does not easily escape through the gaps, and has plenty of room to stretch. DealDash occasionally has bird cages up for auction. They are high-quality and would make a wonderful home for your new pet.

Keep the Cage and the Bird Clean

A bird is known to naturally clean itself, but adding a bird bath to the cage will not hurt. It is also important to clean out the cage properly. You should clean out the cage every 2 to 4 days, or if the cage is starting to get dirty.

Luckily, modern cages make cleaning a breeze. Take out the food and water dishes and give them a good scrubbing. After that, you just need to change the substrate at the bottom of the cage. You should give the cage a very thorough cleaning occasionally as well, including wiping down each individual bar as well as cleaning and disinfecting all bird toys. 

Keep Your Birds Healthy and on a Balanced Diet

You should feed your bird the right food depending on their species.  A lot of pet stores sell bird food based on the species. It is also important to keep your bird healthy by giving them bird toys and watching for any illnesses.
