Bird Behavior

It depends on the conditions when they were unprotected. All you can do is try. Keep the temperature above 80 and less than 100 degrees F. USE A THERMOMETER! Gently turn the eggs every day. Heat lamps are dangerous, as they can build too much heat quickly. A light bulb in a reflector is safer.

as the air inside the car cannot escape from a closed atmosphere the cool air inside the car is condensed in the form of water vapour in the spectacles.

The following information was found on ZebraFinch.info. It helped me with my pair of little Zebra Finches.

1. You will first need a couple of finches old enough to breed - that's after 3 months old, but you must wait until they are nine months old first.

2. They can't breed if you don't give them greens. They will eat chickweed and dandelion leaves.

3. They will also need a nesting site and nesting material to build the nest with. Pick a suitable nest box and purchase it from the internet or a pet store. The nesting sites come in all shapes and sizes. There's the Swallow nest (called that because swallows make nests looking like this) which is like a bowl, and a Nest Box, which is often placed in gardens for wild birds. They provide warmth and shelter to the eggs, but the finches need to squeeze through to get inside the box. These are actually more often used for budgies. Then you have a Wicker Nest, a nest made from hay-like materials that has a roof crafted over the top. If you want you can replace a dirty Wicker Nest as long as there is no eggs in it so you can remove any droppings from it. They provide shelter and warmth and well as comfort and easy access, but they can get dirty and don't give much room for chicks, but most clutches should never have too many birds so that they won't fit it the Wicker Nest. Once you have a nesting site for use you need material so the male of the pair can craft a nest. Give him wool and material sold for this purpose in pet stores. Also give him the softer pieces of material you can buy from pet shops that will keep the birds inside the nesting site, including mother, chicks and eggs, nice and warm - wool you use for wild birds is good for this. Let him use whatever he thinks is best from the variety you offer, often he will use alot of everything. Give rolled or cut up newspaper, clean hay (must be CLEAN), and the odd few handfulls of wool. Then stuff them in something the birds can pull the material out of and watch them begin.

4. Now, the eggs arrive. When the nest is done, the birds are in good condition and the greens are not rare in your bird's diet, the female will enter the nest. She will lay eggs in the nest. Then watch your birds keep the eggs warm by sitting on them. They will hatch if they are kept warm.

5. The next event in the timeline is that the eggs begin to crack open and from within them you will hear "Chireep! Churreep! Fweecheep, meecheep, eep, cheepeep..." and notice the baby finches.

6. The little finches will soon grow their feathers. Their first feathers will not tell you their gender as it takes time for them to get their markings, as the males and females feather patterns and markings are different. When they hatch they are creamy white-ish with a little black mark underneath each eye - unless they have the mutation Pure White from a parent. This is a cute and normal happening in finch breeding and so are other mutations, but this one will overrun all other mutations. To see mutations and what they look like see the Finch Design page on Zebrafinch.info that allows you to click on a mutation and the finches on the left will change to suit the appearance you have clicked.

7. Eventually the young finches will leave their nest. They can now explore around their home and get to know the other finches in their environment.

8. Eventually the little finches will also begin feeding themselves and other finches. They can now drink their water and eat anything nutritious for them as they become older and explore the area and investigate other finches. They are now young zebra finches just beneath adult age capible of getting what they need on their own and interacting with the other finches in the manor they do.

9. Take the nest away now unless you want another clutch of little finches. Don't breed the same pair more than 2-3 times a year, as it is bad for their health to breed to much. I'd wait until next year before breeding them again. If you really want more finches, try a different pair. Remove the breeding stuff until the next time your finches will breed.

Pigeons and doves make cooing sounds, varying by species.

i have had experience with sebra finches (they are very easy) and all you really do is put some damp bread, fresh lettuse and egg and biscuit mix which is available at good pet stores. zebra finches look after their babys very well and will until they are independent

No, they will not. They don't have an attachment to you to miss you.

On the contrary, some birds, particularly those in the parrot family, form very strong attachments to their owners. Many birds in the parrot family bond strongly, and while most such pets will be fine for a period of time if their owners go on holiday, some will fret, resorting to behaviour such as plucking out their feathers.

If you plan to go on a holiday, ensure that your pet bird will have plenty of company while you are away. This will minimise fretting and self-destructive behaviour.

It's generally safest to remove a wasp nest in a bird box during late evening or early morning when wasps are less active. Wait until late fall or early winter when wasps have died off or left the nest for the season. Always wear protective clothing and consider using a professional pest control service for safety. Avoid removing the nest during the warmer months when wasps are active and can become aggressive.

Cockatiels could fight for numerous reasons. It could be breeding season and they are fighting over a mate. They could fight over a particular nestbox or could be attempting to chase another bird away from their territory during breeding. A male may want to mate or preen a hen that isn't interested or vice versa. They also can fight because of jealousy if one bird is getting more attention than another. They could be overcrowded in their living space and need more room. The reasons are endless

Cockatiels are like any living creature. They do not always get along for various reasons and sometimes fights occur. Usually however they are nothing more than a lot of noise and wing displaying and neither bird gets physically harmed. If one does however get injured then the offenders will need to be separated into different cages.

= Breeding Season: April to September Eggs usually one egg Incubation: 28 days =

Usually after a preening session. Its done to shake off any remaining dirt or particles from the session.

not that sure but the internet is always helpful. www.allaboutmacaws.com might help. check it out.

Yes, it is possible to discourage egg laying in conures, but it often requires a combination of environmental changes and behavioral modifications. Strategies include reducing breeding stimuli like nesting materials, adjusting lighting to mimic shorter days, and ensuring the bird has plenty of mental and physical stimulation. Consult with an avian veterinarian for tailored advice and approaches to manage your conure's egg-laying behavior effectively.

Your budgie is trying to exercise. He cannot fly properly, but if he grips the cage and flaps his wings, he is getting some of the exercise he craves.

Just because the bird seems to want to fly, do not allow it to. A budgie on the loose in a house is a recipe for disaster for the bird.

Birds don't really control when or where they poop - they just, as Nike would say, do it. So if they are sitting on food bowl, that's where they'll 'go.' It's not uncommon for a parakeet to perch itself on the edge of its food bowl.

humming bird, geese, robens, buserds,

well when you would buy your pet budgie you would ask the pet shop keeper he/she should tell u all the details of ur budgie and should give u like a little receipt with all the info on your pet! x

Head bobbing is a completely normal behaviour. They're happy, content, and want attention.

I gave my budgie a small piece of dried chive and he loved it! Most greens are okaay for budgies but id double check.

If your budgies are used to being indoors, and if you do not live in a warm climate, they should not be moved to an aviary. Cold winters are deadly for budgies.
