What kind of environment does a parrot need?

Parrot environment A person who really loves birds and cares about life in a humanistic sense, you should consider their safety before buying your birds. First of all, you should know what kind of bird you want to buy, what it is called, what it eats, where the original species is produced, what is its living habits, and what is its geographical environment and climate? Because when the bird arrives home, the closer the environment you provide is to the place of origin, the safer the bird will be and the faster it can adapt to your home environment. Then we can live happily and reproduce. For parrots, peony (including white-eyed cephalopods: brown head, mask and peach face without eyes) is native to south-central Africa; Black wind and small tiger skin are produced in Australia; The horizontal spot and the Pacific Ocean are found in some islands in South America and the Pacific Ocean, basically between the Tropic of Cancer; Feng Xuan is produced in Australia. The climate of the producing area is basically hot, either tropical continental climate, tropical grassland climate, tropical desert climate, tropical rain forest climate and so on. One of the characteristics of these local geography is that the temperature is relatively high, either wet or dry, or a year is divided into dry season and rainy season. No matter what the climate is, the beginning and end of the rainy season every year is a good time for birds to breed. The climate is warm, the humidity is moderate and the food is sufficient. Similarly, in China, the turn of spring and summer and autumn are the peak seasons for bird breeding. Then your bird should pay attention to providing an environment close to this climate. If it is too wet, it should be kept indoors; if it is too cold, it should be kept indoors. Basically, the temperature below 10 degrees should not be placed outdoors. Breeding birds should not only pay attention to the low temperature, but also pay attention to the excessive temperature difference. For example, in Guangdong in spring, the temperature can reach more than 20 degrees Celsius during the day, but it is only about 10 degrees at night. Although it is quite good compared with the north, the temperature difference between day and night is as high as 10 degrees. This temperature generally doesn't matter to parrots, but it is a great threat to birds that lay eggs and brood. The temperature difference is too great, and birds have poor adaptability, so it is still difficult to protect themselves, let alone breed. Therefore, although the diet is adequate and the environment is quiet, the parent birds will abandon their nests. I talked about the big environment before, and then I talked about the small environment. To raise a good bird, besides eating and drinking well, the environment should be quiet. Too noisy environment gives birds a sense of insecurity. The bird is in a state of impatience and anxiety. It is always on the alert and cannot grow and reproduce well. Therefore, birds in breeding season should pay special attention to a quiet environment and put it in a place where few people disturb it at home. If the conditions are limited, it is best to cover it with dark cloth or green plants. Food: Parrots mainly eat grains with shells. On the one hand, their mouths are bombarded. On the other hand, chaff is rich in vitamins, which is beneficial to resist diseases. Vegetables and fruits are also necessary, but avoid stones, pears and spinach. According to some bird friends, eating these things will cause diarrhea, or some stones are poisonous. Vegetables and fruits must be washed clean. A small amount of pesticide residue may be harmless to people, but it is enough to kill birds weighing only a few tens to more than one hundred grams. That's how many lessons happened. Water: Parrots in the wild often drink muddy water, but they are still alive and well, so some bird friends think parrots are slick and easy to raise, so they give water to tap water. Actually, it's all wet. If you are careful, you will find that tap water contains chlorine, bleaching powder and other chemicals used for disinfection. People who drink these things directly may have diarrhea, not to mention the smaller birds and animals, the smaller the lethal dose to toxic chemicals. Drinking tap water may not kill people, but it will have a bad influence on the health of birds and may be unfavorable to laying eggs. The safe way is to leave the tap water overnight or the next day, or expose it to the sun and give it to the birds, or simply cool the water. The water should be fresh, and there should be no feces. Escherichia coli, fungi and chlamydia are the biggest causes of bird death. Cage cleaning: it is necessary to clean up the feces in time, especially the feces on the telephone poles. Feces will ferment and produce many bacteria, viruses and parasites. Birds' claws can scratch all parts of their bodies, leading to infection. Disinfection: Generally, it is not necessary to disinfect the cage after cleaning, but it needs to be exposed to the sun, hot water and places where potassium permanganate is easy to spray after a period of time, and even washing with laundry soap is a good simple disinfection method. The environment is quiet and suitable, the temperature is suitable, and the food is nutritious. Birds have a sense of security, will be lively, and will have the desire to breed. Birds are naturally raised. It is not difficult for beginners to raise birds. What is difficult is love, care and patience.
