hi

i went to my local petshop and it was 50% off everything to do with birds excludes cages

i bought 2 calci perches for $3.50each these are the big ones

a new water dispencer $4.00

and the best thing i have ever bought a bird bath $5.00 the one you hang on the cage it has a cover. i put it in when i got home my budgie got straight in there and got wet and it made no mess (thats nice for a change)

cam

50%? thats unusual for a pet shop to be selling stuff over 10% after all their usually to stuck up and money hungry to give a damn about the birds in the shop just as long as they make money

but anyways u picked up a nice bargain, im thinking of getting a proper bird bath to stand up away from the perch's and instead put seed in it and have a hanging water casket thingo

I have done that Matt. I use a bird bath for the seed. Birds have to fly down to it, and then fly back up to perches. No other animals can get to it.

 

I had hanging water dispensers, and the birds would get in there to swim, but a lot of droppings also ended up in there. This means that birds had greater potential to get sick.

 

I have swapped to the water dispensers that hang on the side of the aviary, that have the ball bearings and the birds get the water out. It is a lot better, and less illness occurs because of this.

 

 

 

in summer I also use one of these containers so the birds have an available bath

 

Yes! that bath You have in the cage is perfect for what i want for my seed, usually bunning's warehouse has good baths and such, except their a bit on the expensive side

I have my seed in the exact same bird bath . Works well doesn't it?
