Important Parakeet Care Tips
1. Avoid Drafts
Be careful to avoid subjecting your pet parakeet to drafts or extreme temperature changes.
2. Don't accidently let your parakeet starve to death
Your parakeet's food dish may appear full but may not have any food in it. The parakeet eats the nut inside the seeds not the shell so many times the feed bowl will appear full when in fact it is only the shells from the seeds
3. Dirty water can cause illness and death
You should wash your parakeet's food and water dishes daily and make sure that there is no soap residue in them. Parakeet's need fresh water every day to survive. Bacteria laden water can make them sick and die.
4. Sand perch cover's can prevent crippling
Parakeet's need a place to file their toe nail's otherwise these nail's have a tendency to grow in a circle around the perch which will cripple your parakeet.
5. Cuttle bones are more than just a way to file your parakeet's beak
Parakeet's need a cuttle bone to file their beak but cuttle bone's also provide minerals that your parakeet needs
6. Don't let your parakeet get depressed.
You need to provide swings, mirror's, and other toy's to keep your parakeet entertained while you are away.
