The easiest bird to take care of is a parrot. All they do is eat and speak.
Its fairly unlikely but birds know just as much as you teach them.
It is very common and natural for female birds to lay eggs at regular intervals even when they are not in the presence if a male. Removing the nest may help in slowing down egg production, but many birds will do this. I myself had female zebra finches that laid an egg at least every two weeks, and of course they never hatched because the eggs were infertile.
The northern mockingbird was named the state bird in 1927.
depends on the bird. :S
-----------------------
small birds (budgies, finches, canaries etc.): 5-15 years
small-medium birds (cockatiels, lineolated parakeets): 1-20 years
medium birds (pionus, conures, Quakers, lories): 25-40 years
medium-large birds (example: African grey, some amazons): 30-50 years
large birds (large amazons, large cockatoos, large macaws): 50-80 years
I think a bird because a bird is a nice animal but a bunny can grow sharp clause but a bird can peck but they do not have by they I mean parakeets
It your parakeet lays two eggs on the botton of the cage, you might as well just leave them alone. By know you should have a nest in the cage. it is a big box in the cage with a whole in it. we got one a couple days ago cause my bird laid 4 eggs!!!! i know it is crazy. Well, good luck with your parakeet!!! Essa
yes you can its even healthy for them and should be part of there diet especially if its whole grain bread
Caged birds with lice or mites will scratch a lot. Whether or not your parrot has lice or mites, it is wise to get a mite spray from the pet shop and spray it every couple of days. The spray does no harm if used properly.
Yes, the Carolina parakeet is extinct. Carolina parakeets were the only species of parrot native to the United States of America. These birds went extinct in the wild in 1904 and then in captivity in 1918. They went extinct because of deforestation and because farmers killed flocks who came and ate their crops. They were also frequently hunted for the use of their feathers in fashion. They also would flock back to places where dead or dying birds were, making hunting easier. Ornithologist Noel F. Snyder speculated that the final cause of their extinction was poultry disease, but no proof has ever been found backing up the claim.
A Bee Hummingbird is a species of hummingbird, being the smallest hummingbird or even bird in the world. A hummingbird is merely a name of a type of bird with certain characteristics that set it apart from other birds like hawks, herons, songbirds and ducks.
Your pet parakeet thrives quite nicely on a properly balanced diet of fruits, vegetables pellets and seeds. However, every so often that birdie boy of yours feels like a nut. When he does, shell out a nutty treat from this nutritious list of parakeet favorites.
The Almond
The almond is one of the most nutritionally dense nuts available. Rich in vitamin E, minerals and antioxidants, the noble almond is loaded with more protein than eggs and scores relatively low in saturated fat content. You'll need to crack the shell of this nut slightly for your feathered friend, and then stand back as your boy starts digging out the nutritious nut meat hidden inside.
The Pistachio
This nut is as fun for your bird to eat as it is for you to say. The task of removing this nutritious, delicately-flavored nut from its shell will keep your busy boy occupied for hours on end. High in antioxidants, protein, carbohydrates and fiber, and low in calories, pistachios in moderate rations will help to keep your fine feathered friend lean, healthy and happy.
The Walnut
Loaded with heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, vitamin E, and omega 3 fatty acids, the walnut is a healthy treat your parakeet will be wild about. This is a tough nut to crack, so shell and chop up the walnut for your bird before serving. However, bird friend beware, this tasty, high-energy seed of the walnut tree contains some crazy calories, so easy does it on the portions.
The Pecan
Another tough nut to crack, the pecan must be opened and diced before your bird can enjoy it. Naturally low in sodium, high in protein and unsaturated fats, the pecan has no cholesterol, and is a good source of nutrients, like calcium, iron and magnesium. This nutty treat also is a good source of oleic acid, a fatty acid that can help to keep your parakeet pal's skin and feathers healthy and vibrant.
I hope that helped!
Most use for counterbalance while running, because Allosaurus, for example, lean a little forward. Some, like Ankylosaurus and Diplodocus use it for defense!
Good luck.
Not when it's older than a youngster. Young budgies have black eyes and they are less muscular than adult budgies. But when budgie is about six months old, it looks and behaves like adult, and it's age is impossible to define. Colour doesn't matter.
No, birds do not eat bean they have a diet of eating seeds and corn definitely not beans, although some birds eat mixed beans.
Pet birds enjoy a bath in a warm room and it helps them to keep clean and clear of mites. Just be sure the bathwater is clean, warm (not hot or cold) and shallow enough that the bird will not drown in it.
It depends on what is meant by "second largest", and whether this refers to height or weight.
The emu is the second-tallest bird, averaging 1.6 to 2 metres in height. Its nearest rival is the Southern Cassowary which averages 1.5 to 2 metres. Next to the emu, it looks distinctly shorter and stockier. The Southern Cassowary, however, tends to be heavier. Emus range between 30 and 45kg in weight, whilst the Southern Cassowary averages 50-60 kg.
Not a thing. Penguins do not live in the Arctic. Penguins are found in the Southern Hemisphere.
Actually, What helps a bird fly is the structure of their bones. Their bones are hollow which helps the bird because it is not too heavy. Feathers work by stearing the bird and for the wind to pick it up i
I've heard the best time to start training budgies to talk is 4 months. although they can talk it does not mean they will talk (they will if they feel like it). good luck!
lettuce may be fine, but it has no nutrients in it, it is better to give them other greens. Broccoli, carrots, yams, spinach and a good basic seed mix. Do not feed chocolate or avocados, they are highly allergic to these things. Dont forget the Grit either.
yes! when the eggs are hatched the male will help the female feed the babies.
Yes. There is no problem with a cockatoo having pomegranate, as long as it is in small amounts.
