Your parakeet needs exercise for its physical health but also to keep your bird mentally stimulated. Your bird’s cage should be large enough to jump around from perch to perch and fly a bit. Provide your bird with toys and apparatus to encourage climbing and swinging. Make sure everything you put in your bird’s cage is bird-safe. Give your parakeet plenty to play with but don’t add so many items to your bird’s cage that it becomes difficult to move around. Mix up the assortment of toys in the cage to keep your bird’s interest. The best exercise for your bird is flying so plan on safe time out of the cage for flight. Secure the room before taking your bird out of the cage. Check all windows and doors. Supervise your parakeet at all times while it is out of the cage. Contact your veterinarian Doylestown, PA for more information.
