Most birds sleep 4 to 5 hours a day. Birds will go to sleep after the sun sets. Birds awaken when the sun rises in the morning.

When do birds sleep?

most birds sleep from 8 to 10 hours. well it depends, usually they sleep as long as you do. Sometimes birds sleep 8 hours but how many minutes. He may not be getting enough sleep if he is just "napping" with one eye open. Does he do this only during the day, or all night, too? "So how much sleep does your bird need? If you take a look at the hours of light on a typical day, you can get a rough estimate of your bird's sleep needs. This can even change seasonally. There are longer hours of light during the Summer, for example. However, even during the longest days, there are usually about 10 or more hours of darkness each night... The best thing to do is figure out an average for the year in that part of the world where your parrot originated. Most parrots come from countries near or below the Equator. On average, you will have around 11 hours of darkness in these parts of the world. Parrots in the wild start settling in for the night at dusk and begin to come alive in the morning at first light. Therefore, if your pet is kept awake by the bright changing lights of your television set until 11 pm, then gets up at 7 am while you get ready for work, your bird is probably not getting enough sleep."
