Parrots must regularly receive fresh fruits and vegetables. A wavy parrot in the house - create comfortable conditions for the pennate pet

Most people acquire indoor birds, as they say, for the soul, so that they please be melodious songs, cheerbaling. Often, people are breeding birds for children, so that they have learned from childhood to take care of others, they felt responsible for a living being.

As mentioned above, the wavy parrots usually do not disappoint their owners, do not announce the house with extreme cries, these birds are very rarely difficult. But if it happens, then most often the fault of the people themselves. If you treat your pet with kindness and care, he will definitely pay a person to affection and good temper.

What you need to know by choosing a wavy parrot

By purchasing a feather friend, many people do not imagine that each bird has a special character, special habits (sometimes very peculiar). Some birds, for example, love to swim, others - no. Some parrots are very manual, stretching towards people, miss if you have to stay alone for a long time, others, on the contrary, are independent and do not like when they hold them for a long time.
It should be noted that the nature of the wavy parrots can change with age. The older the bird becomes, the more horn, it is done, heavier tolerates addiction to a new place, it takes the separation of separation with familiar people. But the parrot becomes smarter, he recognizes the characters of household and adapts to them, begins to understand perfectly what the owners are demanding from him.
Most home parrots get perfectly with other pets. There are even cases when the parrot is friendly with a cat. But still you should know that it is rather an exception to the rules. It often happens that birds die in claws of fluffy pets. Most dogs relate to parrots calmly and rarely manifests aggression, but it can happen and irreparable. The best neighbors for a wavy parrot are other unsubstantial birds, guinea pigs and decorative rabbits.

For cats, birds are prey, and instinct tells a small predator that the parrot can become the very game that he is so lacking in the apartment.

So that the parrot began to trust a person, it is necessary to spend a lot of time with him. Do not allow birds to miss or fall into indifference.
It is advisable to remember that wavy parrots - bird birds. Without societies, they can even get sick, especially if people pay little time to birds.
Parrots of monochrome and, attaching to a person, they feel almost comfortable. However, the owner must regularly play and chat with a parrot, having to hum and disperse the melodies, to show care. But even if the relationship between man and bird is beautiful, the parrot will still be required by society of other birds. Therefore, it is necessary to seriously think before deciding to buy one bird. Perhaps it is better to immediately buy a couple - male and female. This is especially appropriate if the owner spends a lot of time at work.
Along the parrots will be more fun, they will not raise. You can make two birds of one sex, but much more interesting to observe precisely for the "married couple." By the way, not always the pair can easily take place, it happens that the parrots do not like each other. It is difficult to understand the causes of such sympathies or antipathies, but still, when choosing individuals, this factor should be considered. If mutual understanding and love arises between the parrots, such a couple can give offspring.
Before bringing a bird to the house, you should think about what throughout her life will have to take care of her, remember her needs. It is necessary to think in advance who will remain with the pet if the owners have to go on vacation or on a business trip.
If there are children in the house, they must be prepared for the emergence of a new tenant. The child should not treat a living being as to the toy. In addition, if the initiator of the purchase of the parrot was a child, it should be remembered that the main care for the care is still falling on an adult. In fact, the necessary instructions will be needed to all households, they need to know what it is possible, and what it is impossible to feed the parrot when you can produce it from the cell, what feeding it is needed, what items can be in the cell, and which it is worth keeping away from the bird and etc. Besides, before bringing a pet to the house, it is necessary to make sure that no one in the house is allergic to bird fluff.
If the parrots are contained by pairs or groups, then they do not become hand to the end, although they calmly carry the proximity of the person. But if the chicks are quite early separated from the fellow and he does not remember them, then such a parrot begins to reach out for a person. When it is released from the cage, he will get on his shoulder or hand, being in a cage - strive to be closer to the owner. Such birds are especially easy to pronounce words and phrases, they themselves listen to the voice of a person. Some of the manual parrots are able to remember and reproduce more than 100 words.

Parrots are quickly mastered in a new place

Those who wish to acquire a parrot, but not having the experience of its content, should not immediately choose themselves in the pets of a crude wavy parrot. Caring for this type is complicated by the high demandingness of such birds to feed and content. Especially difficult to breed these parrots, which is why they are still small in Russia. Among the crochet birds, unfortunately, there are many individuals with deviations from the norm. First of all, such deviations are reflected on the behavior of the parrots. They have psychosis and seizures that are repeated more often during the nesting period. The diseases of the nervous system is not the only problem with which the owner may encounter. Often, such parrots are reduced immunity, they can easily be cold or picked up infection.
If you are going to acquire parrots, putting them the purpose of their further breeding, then it is worth it to choose from individuals, and to their content with full responsibility. It is advisable to buy birds from an experienced breeder.
Previously, it is necessary to stock information about the features and disadvantages of the selected subgroup. As mentioned above, not all varieties of wavy parrots easily multiply in captivity. Therefore, first of all, you need to set real goals.
Well, if the owner first wants to have a funny interlocutor? It is believed that it is better to "act" in males. It is not entirely true, and many female are eagerly engaged in "chatter".
Another nuance should be taken into account: females love to torment and peck a variety of objects. This is a natural female parrot instinct in nature, because it must hollow out and equip the hollow for the nest. But whatever sex and varieties of the parrot you do not start, do not forget that this is a very sociable bird, it will require attention and active participation of the owner in her life.

Acquisition of the wavy parrot

When the question about the acquisition of a wavy parrot is resolved and all the nuances are agreed with households, an important point remains - the place of acquiring the future pet. Now in many pet stores there are all sorts of varieties of parrots, as well as cells and other affiliation for bird care. Trade with wavy parrots and breeders. They have even preferable to buy a bird, as it is possible to look at the parents of the chosen young parrot. Addresses and breeders' telephones can be found in veterinarians, in clubs, in animal shelters.

In the choice of a parrot, first of all, it is recommended to rely on feelings. You will probably do not regret the choice made.

When buying is not worth a hurry. Initially, it is recommended to watch parrots for sale. Perhaps some of them will immediately like you with your cheerful, playful character, maybe it will attract the attention of an unusually beautiful coloring plumage or, intercepting a curious view of the birds, you will understand that this is your future pet. However, something still should be considered when buying, for example, the parrot age. It is best to acquire a very young bird. The most suitable age is 5-6 weeks. It is at this age that the parrots are very quickly getting used to man and a new surrounding. And, of course, the bird should be healthy, then she can make great to get out in a new house and long delight you with their fun.
The young parrot recognize is easy, it must have big black eyes-buttons that have no white rainbow shells. In addition, it is worth paying attention to the wavy strip, which stretches through the entire Parrot's head to the wisch.
A healthy bird is impossible to confuse with a fallen individual. She looks great, the plumage is glad, it fits tightly to the body and completely imposed. Feathers near Cloaka are not blicked, nothing should flow from the eyes and nostrils.
The paws should be without damage and sores, horny scales - to form a flat surface.
It is worth considering the fines of the bird carefully: all your fingers should be available.
The correct location of the parrot fingers should be like this: two directed back, two - ahead. Claws should not be damaged or "reversed."
Healthy Parrot RAVE and ENERGY, he rejoices life, zadorly jumps, wounded, chirbing. If the bird is indifferently and motionlessly sits in the corner of the cell, the plumage is standing on her, the eyes are covered, and the beak is hiding in the feathers on the back, then the likelihood is not very healthy.
In general, up to 6 months of age, the parrot is considered young, so do not fear to take the bird over 6 weeks. Parrots older than 3 months are more beautiful and brighter, unlike very young individuals. The latter plumage is less contrasting and rather dull, the tail is short, the eyes visually seem more. Somewhere in 5 months a healthy parrot can already reach the size of 17-19 cm.
At all young birds (under 50 days) there should be a small black smear on the beak. Over time, he will disappear by himself, in adult parrots it is not.

Black smear on the beak of a young parrot

The young birds of claws on the paws are much shorter than an adult parrot. A parrot, which is more than 2.5 months, is distinguished by a yellow or white plumage on his head. This feature is characteristic of green and blue birds. At all young individuals "beads" (small points on the neck and head) are expressed in neuro, they only become noticeable after molting.
In order to determine the floor of the wavy parrot, just look at the bird's flaw.
The male should have bright blue, the female - brown or grayish-white. However, in young individuals it is somewhat more complicated, up to 3 months of the flange of the female leather-white with blue, and the males - pale purple. White parrots have the same flaw and males, and in females, most often brown or grayish-white. When buying a white parrot, it is better to rely on the help of a professional, he will most define the floor of the birds you like.
If the parrots are purchased for breeding, it is advisable to buy birds from an experienced breeder. The birds should not be a hereditary predisposition to diseases, nervous pathologies, defects in behavior. If you are interested in a full healthy offspring of parrots, then first of all their parents should be. From birds with pathologies, most likely, there will be the same chicks. Before buying a breeder-breeder, a pedigree will probably tell a pedigree of one or another bird. It should not be purchased for reproduction of related individuals, offspring from such pairs will be less viable and weak.

How to prepare a cell for a parrot

Before bringing a parrot home, you need to decide where the cell with a bird will stand. The cell for the parrot is its home, living space, so it is not worthwhile to invade the personal quartes of the Petat. At first, the parrot will come to himself, it is in the cell that it is limited to the stress associated with the change in the situation. And in the future, the bird will rest here, eat, sleep. Therefore, so that the bird felt in a cage as at home, it is impossible to transfer it from one place to another.

It doesn't matter how the floor will be the bird, the main thing is that you really like it. After all, she will have to live with you for many years.

It is best to place a cage with a parrot in the living room, so it will have the opportunity to communicate more with households.
It is desirable to establish a cage in the corner, on the bedside table or securely attached to the shelf wall. The height must be chosen so that the bird can see people in the room. Usually, the parrots really like to observe what the family members are busy. Do not place other shelves over the cell or anything else, birds are scared if something rustles them over their heads. As mentioned above, the parrots do not like drafts, so it is important to place a cage so that it does not blow it. A suitable place can be defined using a burning candle. Usually the flame fluctuates even with a weak air flow. You can not put a cage with a parrot opposite the window, because in the summer in this place too hot, and in the winter it is cold. It is undesirable to put a cell with a feathered pet in the kitchen - this is a dangerous place for a curious and restless bird. Chemicals that are often used are very harmful to birds. And then, the kitchen, as a rule, is often ventilated, so the drafts cannot be avoided.
Do not place a cage with a parrot in the children's room. First, children spend a lot of time outside the room: they are in school, then in the section, they just walk in the yard or leave somewhere on vacation. Alone, the parrot will be sad. And if the child is still small, then the bird can bother him with his twitter and tweet.
And of course, a completely unsuitable place for the cell is a corridor. Here drags are constantly walking, the doors are clapped, in the corridor not daily light. The parrot will not feel comfortably and comfortably and can even get sick.
Many owners are asked if it is worth making a cell with parrots to the balcony. This can be done if there is a suitable weather on the street, there is no strong cold or heat, rain or wind. But in any case, the cell with a bird should not be constantly on the balcony. Birds can be taken out on fresh air, if the apartment is a stuff or, for example, something burned on the stove. At the same time it is necessary to check whether the cell is closed well, otherwise the parrot can fly out of it and get lost.Buying a cage, it is worth keeping in mind that it should be for the bird that is the house, and not a prison. The cell must be spacious so that the bird can stick to jump, straighten the wings, pat them. Even if you assume that the pet will not sit most of the time locked up, you still will certainly have cases when guests will come to your house or it will be necessary to thoroughly remove in the apartment.
The cage must be purchased in advance so that the parrot bought immediately began to get used to it. If you acquire a suspension cell, then immediately it is worth buying a special stand for it. It is usually done from metal and has a heavy base. The cell is suspended for the hook in its top. If the base of the cell is fastened from above the bolt, it should be regularly checked, the stand and fasteners have weakened. It is also necessary to monitor the condition of the clamps that the bottom of the cells are fixed, sometimes toasting the rod simply fall off. So that this does not happen, you can grab the cage with a rubber band - the wider, the better.
Ideal cell dimensions - 100 x 50 x 80 cm. The cell itself must be metallic, parrot cells nibble and quickly lead to disrepair. But barbell inside the cell should still be wooden, no more than 14-20 mm thick. The parrot should not stick the pranch's feet completely. The bottom of the cells for birds is most often done from plastics.

Optimal diameter of barbecue

Do not neglect swings for birds, parrots willingly spend time on them. In the cage, there must be a box with sand, necessary birds for dust baths. Cups for feed and water is best fixed so that the parrots could not turn them. Typically, two small containers are put in the cell - one for grain, another for water.
By the way, the parrots love strands in the form of branches of trees, that is, with the bark - they like to peck them, climb them.
Sometimes the rings for birds are placed in the cage. Parrots are swinging on them, like on a swing. It should be known that a small cell is permissible only if the bird will spend most of the time outside it. That is, the "playground" for wavy parrots is necessary if the cell is not spacious enough. Especially one must not contain a couple of parrots in a cramped cell, it is suitable only for the placement of birds, but not for nesting.

Prandie made from tree branch

In any case, in the cage, the parrot will not be able to fly, for this he needs a spacious room. Flying pets are needed, it is a great gymnastics that increases the poultry tone.
By the way, if you purchase a parrot with a rings on the foot, then a surround paw must often inspect. The fact is that the ring can graze the finiteness of the birds. In addition, the parrot can catch for something and damage the paw. More often owners shoot a ring to avoid trouble. However, it should not be thrown out. On the contrary, it is recommended to carefully store it, as it is a document confirming the origin of the parrot.
In general, you should prepare everything in advance that the future pet will be necessary. Start standing with a stern mixture, it must be like that the bird is already used to. Most often parrots eat grain millet. It is very nutritious and gives the body of parrots the necessary substances. Perfectly, if the cage will be the fresh twigs of the cereal, for sure it will be appreciated. More details about the nutrition of wavy parrots will be described below.
In addition, the parrots are needed and pebbles for sharpening beak. They are best to buy in specialized stores. Do not assemble them on the street or beach yourself. The fact is that the stones that are offered in pet stores contain the minerals necessary to strengthen bone tissue and the plumage of wavy parrots.
Bathing for bathing is better to locate with Laza to the cage. Typically, the bottom of the bath is rough, so that the parrot does not slip.

You can hang in the cage inverted up the bottom of the bottle, parrots usually quickly learn to drink from it, besides, water in it retains freshness.

Can be placed in a cage and a container with mineral additives, for example with charcoal. However, some owners simply sprinkle them, it will protect the bird from diarrhea. But professionals try to teach the parrots to eat the necessary amount of charcoal and other minerals. In an additional feeder, we can put vegetables and fruits, as well as sprouted grains of cereals.

Often the mirror or bells suspend in a cage with parrots. These toys are needed by a parrot on those hours when it will be forced to stay alone.
Do not forget about the sand. Parrot it is necessary to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It can be poured into a separate feeder or straight into the cell pallet.
Naturally, the cage must be cleaned regularly. There are several types of cleaning. For example, daily remove crumbs and trash that are located on the bottom of the cell. No need to forget about the dirt that attached the cells, it should be deleted as it appears. It is also necessary to fit the dust, the pallet must be wiped with a wet sponge. Daily you should wash and the parrot feeder and change the litter in the cage. Especially it is necessary to ensure that the mucus is not formed on the wall of the drinker, since all sorts of microbes are multiplied, which cause diseases. Washing dishes wipe with a cloth.
Monthly in the cell should be carried out by general cleaning. After ordinary cleaning, the cage is wiping with a damp sponge or napkin. You can moisten a sponge into a chamomile or wormwood - it is wonderful and harmless disinfection of a bird dwelling. After such a wet cleaning, the cell should be wired dry.
Once in 3 months, the cell should be washed with a warm soda solution (on 1 rods 3 h. Spoons), then wipe dry, and then rinse with a solution of chamomile or wormwood and wipe well.
All of these events will help to avoid development in a cell of harmful microorganisms and insects. As you know, they are a peddler of serious diseases.

Taming the wavy parrot

So, the parrot is purchased and brought to a new place of residence. The cell must be fully prepared, it must have everything you need for a new tenant - feeder, drinking bowl, bathing, petrolers, cookware with charcoal and sand. In addition, it is worth placing in a cage and such a useful additive as the broken egg shell. All this is necessary a bird for a full life and good digestion.
If there are other animals or birds in the house, the parrot first must be held on quarantine. Its duration is 2-3 weeks. Throughout this time, the parrot must be in a separate cell, and only after the complete confidence appears in the fact that it is healthy, it can be attached to a cage to another parrot.
The first days in a new place are very important for the bird, so the owner must especially accurately relate to it. All the actions of the host must be thought out, the parrot should not experience stress. The relationship from the very beginning should be built so that the parrot trusted you, was not afraid and did not rush with your appearance. The bird should see in man, especially in the owner, his patron.
When the parrot brought home, no need to pull the bird from a portable cell with hands. To additionally do not scare a pet, it is better to move the portable cage close to the new dwelling of the parrot. The bird will independently move to his home. You can cover a portable cell to cover with a dark cloth, then the parrot will go into the illuminated cell.

You should not immediately release a parrot from a cell or try to stroke it. First, the bird needs to be mastered with new living conditions.

In the first days, the cell must be installed so that it is at the level of your eyes. Poppuga will gradually get used to the appearance of the new owner. As already mentioned, the location of the cell should be thought out in advance. It must be in a lit place, but not under the right rays of the sun. Do not place the heating devices next to the cell.
Better in the first days to protect the new pet from the injury factors that can be elevated or scared a bird. You can not loudly include music, knocking the hammer or use the electric drill next to the cage.
It should not be frightened if the digestion opens up at first the parrot or he will have no appetite. As a rule, all these troubles are associated with stress, usually parrots are very nervous during transportation. After a few days, the parrots tend to take food.
At first, the owner will help to communicate with the parrot and a gentle voice and affectionate tone. The parrot will begin to get used to the owner when he starts talking to him.

Talk with a bird when you remove the cage or give it food. Be sure to call a parrot by nickname - more often you say it, the faster the parrot will begin to respond to it.
In the first few weeks, it is necessary to watch the parrot more carefully, for his behavior, health status. Forward signs that the parrot feels no matter, see easy: the bird loses appetite, often drinks water, she is laid, drove, often sitting, with lowered, with lowered Wings. In this case, the faster you refer to the veterinarian, the better, you may have an infectious disease in your pet.
To establish relationships with a bird, you need to make it to be attached to you, began to trust and experience joy at your approximation. But this has to be achieved gradually, day after day. You should be prepared for the fact that you will need an excerpt and patience.
First of all, the parrot should be tamed. The magician should not be afraid of your hand, staggered from it and rushing around the cage. To do the parrot should be gradually gradually. Consider what feed most prefers your pet. Perhaps he likes seeds or pieces of bread, maybe green grass. Offer him a treat with my hands. Do not stretch your hand with a treat sharply, to do it slowly and carefully, all the time gently talking to the pet. More than probably, the parrot first will not accept delicacy. It is necessary to show perseverance, do not remove the hand, wait a few minutes. All this time you have to talk to the bird, pronouncing her nickname.

If the process of taming is not very fast, it is impossible to raise the voice: Parrot will immediately feel your negative attitude.

If the first time did not manage to dispel the fears of the parrot, you can repeat the experience in a few hours. The best time to establish contact is evening, while the lighting should not be bright. You can try to stretch your empty palm without feed to the bird, but then the hand should be close to the feeder. In the end, the parrot will understand that the hand of man does not harm him and fear should not be afraid.
Do not torfer events. Stretching his hand into the cage, do not move with your fingers or try to stroke the pet.
Sharp movements can scare it and spoil all the results achieved.
During the taming of the wavy parrot, minimize all the depressing or frightening bird exposure. We must handle the bird as soft as possible and affectionately. While the parrot is not accustomed to the owner, it is not necessary to produce it from the cell. It is available for the owners who do not have any needs to drive the bird into a cage forcibly. Having hungry, the parrot himself returns there.

If, despite the long persuasion and all efforts, the bird shakes from the outstretched hand, you can apply the following reception: make a pet rolling a little, do not feed it for 15-6 hours, and after this time, again offer him food with my hands. Leaving the parrot without food, do not forget to leave water in a cage, the pet should not feel thirst.
After a month of taming, the parrot will break nervous and fear of your hand. He will feel free to move to the palm with feed, as soon as the owner will stretch it.
When the skills are fixed, you can leave the cell door open. Wavy parrots are extremely inquisitive birds, they will gladly begin to survey the world, which lies outside the cell.
It is not necessary to feed and drink the bird out of the cell, so it will quickly enjoy that food and water for her are only in one place-in its home. It is impossible to lock the cage when the pet is beyond its borders. You can remove the feeder from the cell for a long time, the parrot should always be able to return to the cage and find food and water in it.
Before publishing a parrot from a cell, you need to take care of its safety. It is worthwhile to inspect the room, remove all items that may cause the bird harm. The windows are better to close with curtains or tulle so that the parrot does not break about the glass. If the cat lives in the house, even if it is raised and calm, it is still better to remove it for a while (close in another room).
Releaseing a parrot from the cell, do not create additional noise sources: do not turn on the vacuum cleaner or a hairdryer. The product should be mastered in the new territory, it is understood that it does not threaten the danger.
You can learn a parrot on the team to sit on your hand when it flies around the room. In this case, the bird is also involved with the help of her beloved feed. If the owner puts such a goal in front of him, the following rule should be followed: there may be food in the parrot feeder. This should not be something particularly beloved by a bird, but at the same time the owner should offer a pet any delicacy during training. To do this, you need to know the tastes of your bird. A more or less tamed parrot is usually no longer afraid of the Hand Hands and soon begins to sit on it.
Often, parrots on their own initiative begin to sit on the shoulders, head or hand of households. Usually, the birds are already quite trusted by a person, they are not afraid of him, so they seek to communicate and contact with the owner. In this case, you can stroke the bird, give her some kind of delicacy, gently talk to her. It is very good when the trusting relationship between the owner and the parrot is established, and both seek to support them and draw together to each other.

Feeding

As mentioned above, in the natural habitat, the nutrition of wavy parrots depends on natural conditions. During the rainy season, it is abundant, the birds do not need water and stern. But when the drought begins, the birds have to be hard. Plants dry under the merciless sun, the reservoirs dry out. Birds are often dying in large quantities from the lack of feed and water. At this time, the parrots are bypass with a small amount of food, only strong and healthy individuals survive.
A homely wavy parrot, of course, does not live in such extreme conditions. A person provides it with everything necessary, so homemade wavy parrots live much longer.
However, in order for the pet to be healthy and lived for a long time, the owner of the wavy parrot should be informed, how to properly feed his pet, what a diet should be, which can not be given to birds. It should also be aware of what additives need his favorite.

No need to overflow a wavy parrot

Feed the parrot is required 2 times a day. The basis of feed for these birds is the grain mixture. With the grain of birds, most of the necessary nutrients are obtained. All other products included in the Parrik menu can be viewed as adding to the main diet.
As mentioned above, the main food for them is millet grains, but you can pour into the feeder and wheat barrier. It is advisable to give birds untreated grains, as the husk does not allow the air to penetrate the grain, and therefore, it does not allow fats that are very useful for parrots. Oats also contains a lot of vitamins and amino acids, it is an ideal addition to Mysost. If you provide your pet with a mixture of millet and oats (in the ratio of about 3: 1), this will be quite enough for its full-fledged life.
Wavy parrots love sunflower seeds, and not in vain. It is known that the seeds of this culture contain a large number of plant fats. The body of the parrots is well absorbing such fats. But still do not forget that the excess of oily substances is also harmful to the body of the bird, as well as their disadvantage. The parrot may have a violation of exchange mechanisms, therefore, even if the bird prefers seeds to all other grains, it is worth limiting it in this stern.
In addition to ordinary grain, parrots are recommended to give both a sprouted, which is the source of vitamin E. Therefore, during the nesting period or in winter, the sprouted grain perfectly fills the lack of this vitamin.

The sprouted grain can be found in any pet store, and it is possible to get on your own, extinguishing the usual grains of millet and oats.

Sprouted grain should be given to wavy parrots not more than once a day, best in the morning. Do not pour it into the feeder in large quantities, in warmth it quickly comes into disrepair. However, in a cool place, the sprouted grain is usually stored for a long time, not more than 3-4 days.
If most of the grains sprout, you can feed them to birds, but it should be thoroughly rinsed with food. When grains germinate, they become a valuable source of vitamins E and B2.

The basis of the diet of the parrots is grain

Parrots must regularly receive fresh fruits and vegetables.

With proper feeding, parrots are active

Political nutrition is especially necessary during the breeding period of parrots

Wooden feeder

If in the diet of the parrot lacks vitamin B6., the bird is dramatically losing weight, it starts the violations of the engine device. Already with an insignificant lack of this vitamin in adult birds, reproductive activities are noticeably reduced, and the chicks are poorly hatched from eggs.

Parrot, it is necessary to equip the cage correctly. It should have no less than two barriers from strong, drivingker, feeder and bathing container. Hang special rings on which the feathers will be swollen. The bottom of the cell must be retractable, so it will be easier for you to clean it (clean the cell is necessary daily, wash - once a week). A cell with a bird should be located on the sun and drafts. Keep the parrot away from the computer, refer to the pet the opportunity to hide from bright rays into the shadow.

It is desirable that the feeder and dressing bowl be made of porcelain or glass. Water is better to preliminarily defend the chlorine, then just pour it into the drinking. You need to change the water daily, in the warm season - twice a day. In the spring and autumn it is recommended to add three drops of fresh lemon juice into the drinking, which helps to strengthen the feathers and disinfect water. Every day, wash the drinking and the feeder with hot water with food, wipe dry.

Power must be balanced, so several feeders should be put in a cage (for grain, fresh fruits and vegetables). One adult is enough per day of two teaspoons of a grain mixture, which consists mainly of oats, millet, canary seed, sunflower seeds. You can give feathery porridge, cooked on water, salad, fresh greens, cottage cheese, gentle cereals. To satisfy the body's body in Squirrel, let's pet a petty chicken egg. To ensure a good process of digestion, a parrot requires clean sand without different impurities.

Watch how the wavy parrots frolish is a pleasure. To ensure comfortable living conditions and secure pets from diseases, the owners of birds must know how to care for the parrot. In addition to the competent arrangement of cells and balanced nutrition, the wavy for full development requires communication with family members.

The first days in a new place a wavy parrot adapts to an unfamiliar habitat for it and living conditions. It is very important that he can be cozy and comfortable. New, proper nutrition, gradually establishing contact with pet - the owner must take care of all these nuances in advance.

Choosing a suitable cell size

The optimal option is the cells of the medium size. Too large and spacious designs slow down the taming of the parrots, and small - limit the possibilities of their movement. It is preferable to choose the products of the rectangular shape, since in a round pet can not retire if desired, because of which it will feel uncomfortable. The recommended size for the content of one bird is 35x35 cm, for two - 65x55 cm.

What should be the bottom of the design

For ease of cleaning, the bottom must be retractable. Some breeders prefer to use fillers, others strongly do not recommend this and are limited to the underlying paper with the subsequent daily shift. It is impossible to use newspapers as a litter, as they contain a dangerous substance for a parrot. Some cells instead of solid are equipped with a lattice bottom. For a parrot, this option is not suitable, as it can injure the paws.

What should a pet dwelling be equipped

The parrot in the cell must necessarily stand a drinking bowl with clean water and feeder with branches that you need to blow away every day from the peeled skins. For comfortable movement, the parrot is installed two wooden jersoes at different levels. At the very top, a swing is attached under the cell dome. Bells, multicolored bright beads and all kinds of rattles are very respect from the wavy toys. These items will not let the baby be bored in the absence of owners. If you put the mirror, then the parrot will spend a lot of time for conversations and communication with his new friend. On the one hand, it will not allow him to get bored, on the other, he can move away from man.
