I bought 2 of those snuggly tents but returned them after seeing the horror stories. They're busy lil buggars and catching a stray string hazard can be missed or never seen in time so I decided not to risk it. On another note, I have small rope perches outside of my Quaker cage just beside the door and that gives them something to step out on when they want to come out without them having to fly out or climb the wall. I adopted my Quakers over a yr and half ago and it's taken me a ton of patience because he was 9 and she was 3 and neither had been handled since they were babies so they were biting me every chance they got! The male will still bite me when he takes a notion that I need scolding.😒 and she will bite me when I'm filling or replacing their food bowls. They're Very territorial, especially over them vittles, Maw.😥😁 I love them sooo much tho, I often wonder what I did before they came into my life. My girl Coco is loving putty in my hands when she's away from the house but he still won't sit on my bare hand without biting my skin. I use a rag or a pillowcase folded up because he seems to have a little nervous issue to where he has to bite onto something to feel secure, which is what he does to whatever cloth I'm using. We're making progress tho and one day I hope to film and post videos with them soon. Good luck with your new feather babies🐦💘 ⚜

*IMPORTANT WARNING FOR PET BIRD OWNERS* : The food that we normally give to the canaries (and other companion birds) consisting of a "complete, balanced and top-quality seeds mixture" bought in pet stores or malls, makes the owners trust that their pet is well fed, but it's not so: indeed the birds health is at imminent and serious risk. The owners of canaries, parrots, cockatoos, budgies, cockatiels, etc., WE MUST PAY ATTENTION TO DOMESTIC BIRD BREEDERS AND VETS and keep in mind that although we feed them with such a typical seeds mixture, our birds are very likely in danger of suffering an unexpected, painful and practically inevitable PREMATURE DEATH BY FATTY LIVER DISEASE. Canaries, for example, will surely die at 4 - 7 years of age of the more than 14 that they can live. It's sad that pet birds are fated to die early and painfully in so many cases. You have to warn people to avoid it! This deadly disease is very common in pet birds but owners usually don’t know or detect it in time. And we can’t imagine that *THE CAUSE IS IN THE FOOD ITSELF* that we provide to our birds, in which such *a typical mixture contains low-fat seeds such as canary seed together with other VERY fatty seeds such as niger, hemp or nabine and, in addition, the birds usually prefer to eat the fatty seeds* so that their REAL DIET is unbalanced by excessive fat, gradually causes the fatty infiltration of the liver and in a few years causes fatty liver hepatitis and PREMATURE DEATH to pet birds. *Also the breeding paste and its pigments and the sunflower seeds can attack the liver* if they are taken too much or for too long. It's a cruel disease that progresses silently and, when its unexpected symptoms begin, they are easily confused with other ailments so the owners usually postpone the visit to the vet at a time already critical for the life of the bird (besides that not all vets are trained to recognize this elusive and misleading disease, even to administer lipotropic and regenerative liver protectors in curative doses, just in case it's that and not a supposed blow). It's a process of slow and asymptomatic progression, but when their visible symptoms begin (acute phase) the disease accelerates. *SYMPTOMS OF THE ACUTE PHASE OF FATTY LIVER DISEASE* : First, emotional decay or progressive lack of interest, hard belly (in many cases, with a dark spot with a half-moon shape on the belly, which seems a "tumor", to see it you have to wet your fingers to remove the down), falls from the sticks of the cage that seem for "errors of calculation" and then lameness (that make believe that they are by the previous falls, but both symptoms are due to that it hurts the liver), lack of flight and singing, the bird fluffs up his feathers or bends more or less slowly; Then, within a few weeks or a few days, heavy breathing with open beak, remaining lying on the floor of the cage near the food, sudden spasms from time to time (which make people believe that the bird is "epileptic" but it are twinges of pain of diseased liver), abundant greenish stools (caused by biliverdin which if it's not fasting, it means hepatic harm), then black and watery (from hepatic hemorrhages), then a strange purplish color of skin and beak, an excessive appetite and the final "improvement" of a few days (in the last phase, the already degenerated liver becomes deflated by what the bird seems to ameliorate), after which it suddenly dies among seizures (which may seem a heart infarct). For the first symptoms the liver has already degenerated to 80% and only an urgent (and accurate) vet action can save your bird and revert the liver situation. If you simply feed your bird with the loose seeds mixture (even if you give it fresh fruits, vegetables and let it exercise, for example by letting it out of the cage at home), right now your pet's liver is degenerating, and neither you nor your bird know. *Without liver protectors, it's almost certain that your bird will die early and in many cases you won’t be able to determine its real cause* . Hepatic lipidosis it's not only deadly by itself when the visible symptoms begin (sometimes even it does not warn at all until few moments before the death). Even before the acute phase it predisposes the bird to suffer infections, as it weakens the immune system. Obese pet birds have an higher risk of many other diseases, like arthritis, heart disease and cancer. Obesity in birds it's not so apparent but it's more dangerous than in other animals like mammals. So in addition to giving to the birds lipotropic and detox / regenerating hepatic protectors preventively and routinely, breeders usually make their own mixtures with low fat seeds. *PREVENTION AND/OR TREATMENT* : The time to act is NOW that your bird doesn’t have yet the visible symptoms. It's necessary to ACTIVELY PREVENT THE LIVER DEGENERATION. Fortunately it's easy to do it: *It's very advisable to substitute progressively (within some weeks, as per the instructions of the manufacturer) the mixture of loose seeds for some pellets compound food of seeds, fruits and vegetables (preferably those that already include liver protectors), because this prevents the bird from filtering and eating mostly the fatty seeds (but without insisting if the bird does not get accustomed to eating pellets because he could die for starvation within a few days)* . *And, whatever the diet, it's CRUCIAL to add to the drinking water or to the food a LIPOTROPIC LIVER PROTECTOR that includes carnitine and / or choline, betaine, methionine, etc., (and it's very convenient to add a DETOX / REGENERATING LIVER PROTECTOR with thistle milk, boldo, artichoke extract)* . Liver protectors are not medicine but cheap food supplements manufactured by pet bird vet laboratories that remove the fat from the liver, clean it and favor its recovery. It's essential to add them to the pet birds diet to conserve their liver. It's something that professionals as breeders and vets know, but we the owners usually don't know. It are appearing in the market compound feed for pet birds that don’t include fatty seeds and that already include several liver protectors. *But the vast majority of owners still confidently feed their birds with the typical mixture of loose seeds with little fat and other very fatty seeds... And their birds continue dying for hepatic lipidosis in a large number of cases (likely, in most cases)* . Now we know that, as fatty liver disease develops from the daily food itself, it’s most likely THE FIRST CAUSE OF DEATH OF PET BIRDS, and more so as the bird ages. Webs on FLD: www.beautyofbirds.com/liverdisease.html Liver disease is a slow, on-going progressive disease where the liver tissue is replaced with fat. When the liver disease has progressed, the bird may suddenly appear ill. www.lovinghands.com/forms/Hepatic%20Lipidosis%20-%20Fatty%20Liver%20Disease.pdf One of the sadder diseases many avian vets see is that of hepatic lipidosis or fatty liver disease. It's sad in a number of ways since often the birds are very ill, life-threateningly so, or possibly having died suddenly. Often the owners have been unaware of the dangers of feeding their beloved pet the seeds, peanuts, or other fatty foods the bird obviously loves to eat. These are truly cases of "loving your bird to death". Any bird can fall victim to fatty liver disease. www.researchgate.net/publication/46105643_Treating_liver_disease_in_the_avian_patient Dietary deficiencies of lipotrophic factors such as choline, biotin, and methionine may decrease the transport of lipids from the liver. www.veterinaria.org/revistas/redvet/n111110B/111004B.pdf The clinical manifestations of hepatic diseases in ornamental birds are much more frequent than people could imagine and in many cases they are not appreciated, progress in a silent way and when they are evident, vet action may (usually) arrive late. Most any avian symptomatology should be considered as if it was a pathology that could be serious, and not allow the disease to develop because then it will probably be too late. We must closely investigate the symptoms, take preventive measures that don’t harm (such as giving liver and intestinal protectors according to the leaflet) ask for advice from vets, breeders, etc. and procure the most appropriate treatment RAPIDLY, but without rushing in the treatment or with the doses in such small animals. If the days go by and the bird doesn’t improve, it's necessary to continue investigating and, if necessary, change the medication in an informed and contrasted manner. Doing nothing or stopping research usually ends up with the bird dead, but acting without being sure of what is done and in what dose, it likely ends the same way. It's necessary to obtain and confirm the sufficient vet experience and have the serenity to determine in each case whether it's convenient to hasten to do and / or administer what medicine and in what dose, or if it’s better not to do and let the situation evolve without medicating for the time being, or according to the medication that has already been administered. A limp in a bird is not always an injury caused by a blow, but the symptom of a disease of some organ (usually the liver or an intestinal disease) that needs to be discovered and treated ASAP. When in doubt, change diet to one with the lowest fat possible (only birdseed, or with other low-fat seeds such as millet, chia, fresh fruits and vegetables) and administer lipotropic and regenerating liver protectors in curative doses immediately... although nothing could foresee a fatal outcome. There are also food supplements protectors of the intestinal mucosa and stimulants of the immune system. In doses according to the leaflets do not cause damage, it will surely save the life of your bird (if it's not too late), and will keep them with a basic wellness.

Please get rid of that tent. That isn’t good for captive birds. Any dark space for a parrot and possibly even shredable things like cardboard boxes that can be made into nests is not good! It will lead to breeding behavior and aggression. Not good at all. Not to mention the fibers will get trapped in their crop and potentially kill them. I’m sure you learned more about parrots in the last 4 yrs as more information on parrot care has come out, so I will just say this anyways. Also don’t pet them below their neck, they will get the wrong impression, think of you as a mate( Quaker’s mate for life) and will become stressed that you can’t help them achieve babies like they want. They’ll become aggressive to you or others in the home and also ear shattering loud.

I love how you care so much for your birdies! Unfortunately there are quite a few things in this cage that are unsafe. As others have said, the happy hut is dangerous. I personally have had a bird die in one before. They can chew them apart and get there legs caught and can also swallow some of the strings that can cause crop compactions and death. A wooden nesting box is much safer but can incorage aggression. Unfortunately the rope perches are also unsafe for the same reasons as the happy hut. Any fabric toys are unsafe for birds. The filing perch is also unsafe as it can cause stomach upsets if ingested and can irritate their feet causing bumble foot. A good alternative is natural bird safe branches. They will do just as good a job and are completely safe. That's for reading! Good luck with your beautiful birdies

Heat lamps also aren’t really needed for birds lmao. Unless you live in a really cold area or you don’t have heat in your house it’s not necessary.

Which he has done. I'm not sure if it's good for him to be so protective of it.. But I love him and can't help but get him another one because he loves it so much!

Is there anyway how you can tell how old they are ? I brought one the lady said that it's 6 months old and I think it's older ?

Good for you. Most people have cages bigger than that for their birds. My cockatiel’s cage is probably a good size for an African grey. My blue crowned conure has a size good for a macaw. It just depends

At my local bird store there are 2 gray quakers that have this dreadful squeak that they scream out when anyone goes within 5 feet of their cage.

Can someone recommended a safe bird bed for my Quaker? I tried the sea grass one and he hated it. I bought him a fuzzy one and he loves it but chews on it. What else do you use and where can I buy it. Thank you for your help!

I did just notice that the link for the flat perches comes with one round wooden perch, and one flat perch. The one that I ordered had two of the flat perches, although I guess it doesn't hurt to have a variety of natural perches. I bought a pack of two so I can just replace the current one when it gets old and gross. Just FYI!

Do need to keep lock type things for your reptile cages? I wanted to get some type of bird (havnt decided what yet) but since they are smart i was wondering if they could open any of my reptile cages.

So far they haven't figured out how to open any, but they do land on top sometimes. I try and supervise all their time outside the cage regardless

I love your videos, i watch them everytime. Im from Argentina and that kind of quaker parrots are very common in the area where i live, i see them every time i go outside, flying or hanging out in giant trees. Try to give them a bigger cage (i know its complicated because of the space) to let them fly a little bit. Just an opinion. Keep going with your channel! Despite of this i love it

I try and give them a good amount of time outside the cage every day and talk to them every time I'm in the room, but my goal is to have them in an outdoor flight cage within a few years.

Great, good luck with that! Your little ones look very social too! They are very pretty. You’re doing an amazing job with all your animals, i wish i had at least a half of them but its very complocated in my country to keep exotic animals. Thanks for your answer daniel!
