Due to their beauty, sociability and intelligence, budgerigars have long become one of the most popular pets.
However, mistakes are sometimes made in caring for these birds that can harm their health and well-being.
1. Improper nutrition.
Birds should have a varied diet consisting of seeds, fruits, vegetables and greens. However, if the pet does not receive enough vitamins and minerals in its diet, this can lead to various diseases, such as fatty liver disease, feather problems, etc.
2. Lack of fresh water.
Budgies need clean, fresh water for drinking and bathing. Owners often forget to change the water in the container, which can lead to the proliferation of bacteria and other dangerous microorganisms.
3. Incorrect placement of the cage.
Parrots need enough space to move and develop, so the cage should be spacious and in a well-lit room, away from drafts and other sources of stress that can negatively affect the mental and physical health of the bird.
4. Insufficient feather care.
Feathers are an important part of your budgie's health, so make sure that trimming and cleaning of feathers is done correctly.
5. Lack of socialization.
Budgerigars are social birds that need interaction and attention from their owners. An unforgivable mistake for bird owners is to forget to give them time.
Finally, it should be noted that owners must take full responsibility for their pets and regularly communicate with veterinarians and other specialists to learn about the proper care and feeding of birds.
