PETS · SPECIES GUIDE

Birds

Balanced feeding, flock behavior, flight and cage safety, sleep, enrichment, air quality, and household hazards.

Three essentials

Prioritize flight-safe space, social interaction, sleep, balanced food, and varied foraging.
Keep birds away from smoke, aerosols, overheated nonstick cookware fumes, and unsafe metals.
Reduced appetite, tail bobbing, sitting fluffed, or breathing changes warrant avian-veterinary advice.
