If you’re thinking of bringing in a new bird, it’s best to quarantine him for a few days to let him get used to his new home. This will help prevent him from being bullied by the established pair.

Cage Size

The size of your bird’s cage is one of the most important decisions you will make.

You want a cage that is large enough for your parakeet to fly around in, but not so large that it becomes a hazard. In the wild, parakeets are agile maneuverers, and if they hit their wings against the bars of their cage, they can injure themselves.

Plus, their feathers are vascularized, so any contact with the metal will cause them to bleed. For these reasons, we recommend a cage that is at least one wingpan deep by one and a half or two wingspans long.

Your cage should also have plenty of space for perches, food and water bowls, toys and cuttlebones.

It should be made of a sturdy, bird-safe material such as stainless
