Parrots can be the most amazing pets to own.
They are very intelligent animals and fantastic to have as pets.
However when you have a parrot it is a good idea to know all about parrot care, or you could end up with a problem parrot on your hands.
When you first get your parrot first things first is getting the ideal Parrot cage.
This is not something you just go oh that looks good I will have it.
You really need to make sure it fits in with your lifestyle, you decor and most important it suits your parrot.
You also need to make sure that you are fully equipped with the knowledge to train him/her and make them into a member of your family - but this can be easier said than done.
First lets' look at getting the perfect cage.
Buy a spacious cage, it should have enough room for your parrot to fly.
They really love flying and you can also buy Parrot T-stands and Parrot Playgrounds so your parrot can have a little fun in its life.
You must consider where you will be placing your cages, you can get big ones, small ones, corner ones.
So really think before you buy as to what size.
You should also make sure the spaces between the bars are adequate size for your bird not too big and not too small.
You do not want your parrot to be able to get out, nor do you want your parrot to get stuck between the bars.
I must say most cages have great spacing but just check the cheaper models as they can have larger spacing or flimsy bars that the parrot can just break.
I told you they are intelligent animals.
Your cage should be made from stainless steel as this will not brake, rust or bend.
Try to avoid cages that have painted bars, powder coating is fine but just normal paint is not as your parrot will just chip away at it and it can be toxic.
