If you’ve ever watched your bird devour a millet spray, you'd know that millet is basically bird candy. So it's time we answer the age old question. How much spray millet is too much?
Limited amounts of grains and seeds like spray millet can be a beneficial addition to your pet bird’s diet. However, it’s difficult to make broad statements regarding the amount any one bird should eat. The right amount depends on factors such as species, activity level, and pre-existing health concerns.
Birds and Parrots can be notoriously picky eaters, which can make transitioning them to a new diet a bit of a challenge.
At Exotic Wings, we’ve helped countless bird owners navigate this process successfully. We’re sharing our go-to transition method, along with a few extra tips and tricks to make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible!
Is a high quality bird cage really worth the extra cost? A bird’s cage is more than just a home; it’s their Sanctuary. At Exotic Wings & Pet Things, we offer only top-quality cages that are designed with safety, comfort, and enrichment in mind.
If you've ever tried to adopt or purchase a bird you’ve probably come across the phrase “prior bird experience required.” But what exactly does that mean?
Let’s take a look at what it really means, and why it matters.
Wing clipping is one of the most debated and divisive subjects in aviculture. Here you will find facts on the subject and some commonly made misconceptions on the topic.
As living costs continue to rise across Canada, managing expenses becomes crucial for every household, including those with beloved pets. Finding ways to shop smarter for your pet supplies can make a significant difference in your budget without compromising your pets usual diet and routine. The staff here at Exotic Wings have brainstormed a few tips and tricks you can use to shop smarter, not harder.
Naturally, in the wild, birds take care of their own grooming needs as they forage and climb. Unlike these birds in the wild, your bird gets a free ride wherever they may wish as they perch on your fingers and shoulder. As much as your bird thinks they live in the jungle, they may just need a little bit of help from you and our team here at Exotic Wings in order to stay healthy and happy!
