"Here we will show you Allister's cage. A bird will need a cage in the house to keep them safe. He has a perch on top of his cage. He is allowed out and can wander around his cage and outside. He has a window outside his cage. He likes to be able to talk to the birds that are outside and it gives him a good view and some fresh air that is coming through. In his cage he's got a food bowl, a water bowl and an extra treat bowl in the back. His water bowl needs a changing so my assistant CR will go and do that for us and come back with freshwater. Birds do like to dunk their food and treats into their water bowl so it needs to be changed at least once a day, sometimes two or three depending on what they are eating and dunking in the bowl. Their food bowl will usually just be fed once a day with other treats as far as fresh fruits and vegetables, pasta, meat, things like that on a regular basis as well. There is paper in the bottom of the cage and a slide out tray so that can be changed on a regular basis as well. That needs to be changed as you can see at least once a day. And it's important to do that, you don't want any material building up in their and causing illness for the bird. My assistant has returned with freshwater for Allister. Thank you. And also it is important that birds have lots of stimulation. I mentioned he's by the window, he also has lots of different toys. This size parrot likes to chew on wood which is why you don't want him running loose around your house without supervision. They will eat anything that is wooden and try to chew on just about anything so we do try to supply him with different materials for toys."
