Hello

 

I am very excited as I have just installed a new avairy and was wondering what sort of perches you would recommend.

I have previously only had cages which come fully equipped.

Would dowel rods be okay or should we use native tree branches?

What's the best way to attach them to the sides of the avairy as it is has colourbond back and sides?

Hope you can help.

 

Thank you

 

Candice :question:

in my aviaries i use natural gum tree branch's as the branch's vary in sizes and the birds enjoy chewing on the bark

Thanks I will get some nice branches from my friend who has several Gums in his garden.Candice

you can use different size dowels, or gum tree branches or some bottlebrush branches with the leaves on it as they love to eat it. Having different sizes exercises there feet. Its great setting up a new avairy. Good luck with it and enjoy.

you also could use various widths of perches from bunnings i put in a old dead tree in my cage and the branches have various width, streching the foot muscles
