Pet Birds and Mites: My Birds have Red Mites 😬

- Опубликовано: 3 дек 2024
- Hi, red mites are the most common mites found on pet birds. In this video I talk about different types of mites and how to get rid of them. Do not use the 8 in 1 bird protector that hangs on the cage as it's very toxic to birds.

I am sorry your dealing with this but I wanted to tell you that this was a very informative video because you showed up close what they look like and where they hide. Thank you for showing your audience. I greatly appreciate it.
Glad I can help 😀
Hi Donna , I haven’t a clue because I only found out they took care of dogs and kitties.I took my neighbors canary to this place and I believe they were honestly just guessing as it was years and years ago.
@@marissadiaz2816 l
Raspberry was so well behaved. Just sitting and listening to you. So adorable!
Cute
Oh Donna! Thank you so much for sharing and don't feel mortified. It happens and you are helping and educating us on the complexities of owning birds. I wish more people would be open when it comes to experiences which are challenging. Those are the ones that help so much. Thank you
Great video, very informative. I'm going to give my 2 budgie cages a thorough cleaning; daily paper changes and wash down more often, like every 2 weeks instead of monthly. The days of taking my 4 budgies out to the lanai (enclosed, screened-in porch) have been over since a red tailed hawk started hanging out, but when I did take them outside, I would place their cages on a picnic table and while sitting in a chair with them, I would notice bugs crawling around on the table; I would occasionally get a bug bite as well. Glad to hear that you found the mites to be the source of Kingsley's problem.
Thank you for your generosity. It's much appreciated 😊. Keep your cages clean and take off the perches and check the ends.
Thankfully there are no dislikes but if there were it would be...
The mites
Btw I watch all your videos I love them all!!
I love bird videos. Always had budgies. Got this lot years 20 years later,more I think.
@@josephineedeeth.trowbridge8968 I agreeee. Bird videos are adorable (period).
😂😂 I don't think you meant it this way but my visual brain interpreted your comment as the mites themselves hitting the thumbs down button 🤣🤣 made me laugh 😂
Wow! Very informative. Now I'll be checking those screws for perches and toys. I do take my 2 cages outside where I pour boiling water over them after taking everything apart twice a yr. Thanks for the info. Raspberry was soo well behaved.
Oh my goodness! Im so sorry to hear about your birds! thanks for bringing our awareness to this.
This is so important to inform us..I cannot thank you enough.
unbelievable! thank you for sharing such an up close & hands on video. thank you for taking the time to film these extremely minute creatures and showing us an example of exactly what to look for. #priceless. thank you so much!
One of my budgies got some sort of mites last year right after I moved into a new apartment, I felt so bad for him!! Luckily I track my bird's molts very carefully so from the first day that he started to drop feathers, I immediately called my avian vet because I knew it wasn't a normal molt, I got an appointment within days. He ended up with a few little bald spots on his head. He had two shots, two weeks apart, I replaced all the perches and toys and did some thorough cage cleaning and he recovered fully with no issues since.
Now that's what I call a responsible bird owner
I know this must be embarrassing for you but I'm so glad you shared it with us we all need to know these things specially if we have birds thank you so much for sharing. I just got a budgie a couple of days ago from a pet store and it had what looked like a seed on it so I don't know if it was a Seed or something else. That's why I was looking for this information thanks again
I am so glad you made this video! So educational for bird parents. I am so sorry you are going through this. 💚
Thank you. Hope you are well.
It did help!! My new budgie has loose poop and I put a tub underneath her sleeping perch to catch a poop to take to vet. Guess what I found in the tub. It's really good of you to make this video, you must feel ashamed or embarrassed even though it can happen to anybody. It's just one of those things. I really appreciate you posting this 💜
Every bad thing has a good side, too. We got to hear the voice of Mr. Love of Pets! 😊 Stay safe!
Mr ?
@@chillywasthesimposter6482 yes 🥰
If the lady is Ms Love of Pets, naturally, Mr Love of Pets will be the husband.
Thank you for making bird owners aware of mites! Hope you get rid of them soon. Dang mites!
I know this is an old video. I'm not sure if this would help. But in warmer weather, I put my birds in an extra clean cage, and take their main cage , and toys, outside and steam clean everything with my steam cleaner. I have the steamfast floor cleaner, but it has attachments to hand hold and steam just about anything. This might kill mites that are hiding.
I don't think it would be safe to steam clean the cage indoors.
One way to efficiently kill mites on things like rope perches and nets would be to put in the dryer on high for an hour.-- Without the need to wash in water first. This should kill the mites and the eggs if the setting is hot. perches can be soaked in dishwater and then dried in the oven.
Donna, I understand how you feel.
I'm pretty sure my conure has mites.
He's been to the vet last week and I'm bringing him in tomorrow for testing and hopefully a solution.
All the research I've done and continue to research, your video, and the great information you've provided have been extremely helpful!
Thank you.
I've been so sad, weepy, and distraught.
I'll follow you now.
Hi, glad my video was helpful. Have you taken everything out of the cage and look for mite droppings? Red mites usually hide on the sleep perch. If you don't see anything then there are other types of mites.
I hope you figure it out and get proper treatment. Thanks for the follow
Thank you that was very interesting , especially on where to check on cage for mites , I will check my cages and perches in the morning :) nicely done Donna
OMGoodness, I’m so sorry you had to deal with that - I can only imagine how huge of a job that was! The sad thing is that this can totally happen to anyone. Thanks for sharing what the mites look like - great footage!
Your welcome! I don't see anymore. I keep looking
Did anyone get itchy after watching this???
Yes!! Appreciate the video very much
Thank you for making this video. Years ago I bought a second hand Bird cage, thought I had cleaned it well but apparently not because it came with red mites. They infected all my birds, I had to move my birds to a friends and have my apartment fumigated. I felt so ashamed! But really, its just a hazard of keeping birds 🧡
Luckily I never had mites. It sucks that you had to go through this. I cannot go without mentioning how Raspberry is so well behaved while sitting and listening to you!! 😍😍
My Budgies had red mites once. I washed the cage and my budgies every day. They were gone in 5-6 days. But I can't imagine you having to wash all of your cages an bathe all your birds properly. So the spray might be the best bet for you
How did you wash your budgies? With water and something else?
Did you wash them with water only?
I think you will have to bin the wooden perches because your seeing them on the metal clasp but they actually hide in the crevices of the wood. They can hide and survive on plastic and hard surfaces but not for long if disinfected but any wooden perches or rope perches they will be living inside the wood and rope. Even if you submerge the wooden perch in bleach they are so tiny some still survive.
i'm very sorry to hear this, I hope you can get rid of them quickly! best of luck😁🦜🦜🐦🦉🦚🦩
Oh...poor you! This is horrible!
Thank you for posting this video.
I was actually thinking of buying an outdoor aviary for my birds this summer, but this made me decide not to get one.
Good luck getting rid of the mites!
Yeah don’t, wild birds and nests is where they come from. I dealt with the issue and very hard to get rid of. I purchased my birds and I think they had them, but only a few. Can only tell and see them when there’s an infestation. Happens to every bird owner, I wasn’t even aware they existed until seeing it, takes a month to get rid of.
Please tell us again, what vet says about WHY suddenly mites appear and How Often they return and cause all this cleaning work over again!
Watch the video again!
She said she took the birds outside.
I decided long ago that i wasnt taking my birds outside bc of wild birds. Im glad that i did.
I'd be inclined to just put a bare minimum in the cage; one perch, food, water for a couple of weeks. Much easier cleaning. I wonder how long they live without feeding - after a few weeks of that, moving out the birds and clean stuff, so any mites hiding in the room die off. With all those birds and lovely cages I can imagine it's a bit of a unmatched battle - only a few mites would need to survive to keep the infestation on-going. I wish you luck in battling them - hopefully none of your other birds are as affected as Kingsley.
Thank you for such an informative video! Please don't be ashamed. This is a natural problem that can occur even with the cleanest and best of caregivers. Unfortunately with Global warming I think we are going to see more and more problems with parasites. Thanks again. Now I know what to look for!
I am so so sorry you have to go through this bad situation. It must be so so stressful for you. I wish i could help you. I understand the way you feel. so helpless. Thank God you have help from the vet.
What is your opinion about Diatomaceous Earth Powder?
What a beautiful little bird. My goodness, beautiful beautiful beautiful
Hey Donna, don’t be ashamed. My finches had them, and I bought iverlux and spray to get rid of them. The lady I bought it offline from said it’s a big problem in Ontario, which is where I’m also from. Happens to everyone, I didn’t even know there was such a thing. Takes a month to get rid of. Everyone gets them from what I’ve heard. Very hard to see them unless there’s an infestation. They can come from wild birds near your house or air conditioners if there’s nests.
thank you for all this great info!
What a pain, prayers to ya girl! Keep us posted.
Another good tip is instead of Vaseline use coconut oil! It safe for birds.
Yes! Thank you!
Thanks Donna for your most informative video, I saw your video yesterday April 24 , but when I went to leave a comment I tried to delete an add and lost you.I wanted to say that years ago my neighbor had a little female canary and this poor little bird had red mites and in those days there weren’t any avaian vets and this regular vet just told her to put hydrogen peroxide on this canary, sadly this little girl passed away when if there had been avaian vets and people like yourself this little canary could have been helped. Thanks 😊 again.
Awh, poor canary 😞. I wonder why they said to put hydrogen peroxide on the bird.
What a big job. Thankfully I have only one bird. Now I know what to look for. Thank you.
So sorry You and your birds are having to deal with the mites..
Good luck with getting rid of them love your channel
My vet suggested a few drops of neem oil in a spray bottle. My finches were not happy about being handled and sprayed. I mixed up another sprayer about 1 to 16 and used that on their cages, dishes, and toys after washing everything with dish soap and water. The cages and toys were totally dismantled. I also used it on the table that holds the cages.
So far I am optimistic. The birds are doing much better. I also have a bottle of Scalex which contains pyrethrins. That's my backup plan, I'm hoping the neem oil solves the problem.
We let a pair of purple finches nest in a wreath on our front door. I was taking pictures with my iPad. I think that's how they got in.
That's a really great parakeet you've got there. Mine will sit with me for a while, but they usually find something better to do.
Hi, did the neen oil cure your birds?
@@Karinalarasart Yes, but it wasn't pleasant for any of us. I made 2 different solutions... I think the one I sprayed directly on the birds was 3 drops per quart of water, it needs to be very very diluted. It doesn't take much, you don't have to soak them and I would try to keep it out of their eyes and air holes.
I made up a slightly stronger batch to spray down the cage and wipe it down daily... but you don't want that to get on the birds!
It was a difficult job and I had to tear down all the bird cages to basic parts and clean them thoroughly as part of the process. But it did work, and the birds are happy and healthy as can be. There was a residual smell of neem oil in the bird cage area for a while but it goes away.
@@wjniemi that’s great they got better!😊thanks for your reply
Thank you very much!!!! Will do it today! Vera
Another great vid...I never thought to check the perches...I checked them immediately after watching your vid...I think lm good and free of mites or lice...I use a lice and mite product called Bird Bath but l don"t spray it directly on my birds but at the bottom of and around the cages...Thanks again...Iv"e always tore down...cleaned and put the 3 cages back up once every 2 weeks with daily spot cleaning...
Oh my gosh.. glad somebody finally made a video about mites!
I don't have birds , i have to cats. The neighborhood in live in has chickens. Plus the many wild birds out there. 2019 i had an infestation of mites. I knew it,but could not prove it. My cats and i felt extremy itchy . So uncomfortable!. Nobody i knew believed me. The pest control i had come out didnt either. I seemed crazy. But my cats wouldnt come in the house , even to eat and thats when i found i couldnt lay in my bed or sit on the couch .. without feeling worse. I could not see them , but felt them everywhere on me! So even tho pest control came out and sprayed, because they didnt believe me, they didnt kill them. They need the right type of chemical to kill mites. It was awful.
It was 2 1/2 years later when i finally got pictures of them in my house. There were mostly in the cats beds . But even tho i show them the pictures, they are not treating my yard and house for them properly. With all the chickens around, and some would come to my house because their coop was need of repair. The most horrific experience ever. I tried to get the local news to do a story but it hasn't happened yet. I am so glad you did this video. I wouldn't wish this on anybody , it has been so hard to take care of. This will help many people who do not know
I love your channel and videos! I love birds! I am thinking about getting two Fishers Lovebirds. I have been doing lots of research on them and have been watching your videos for advice! Do you have any cage recomindations for two lovebirds? Also, I love Sprinkles! :)
Hi, I have this cage for my one Lovebird. I am sure it's okay for two amzn.to/35veFuC if you let them out often. Bigger is always better. These cages are nice, I have 4 of them amzn.to/3aZjEVo
@@Loveofpets Thank you! I really like the second one. :) Thanks again!!! Love your vids!
My cockatiel heard your voice at the beginning of the video & he got very excited and chirpy & a minute later, my budgie chimed in. I think they love your videos as much as I do! :D I hope Kingsley recovers from the mites & no one else catches them!
Thank you for letting us see it.
Thank you so much for this video. It's informative. My budgie has been scratching since the end of august but i couldn't see any red mites and when i googled for budgie mites i only found birds with that deformed nose or beak so I thought if he doesn't have that, maybe he's just scratching because he's changing feathers. But now his eyelids started to look like he has dandruff (the skin flakes) and i've asked a few vets in my city and they all said they're not specialised in birds so I didn't know what to do. I had no idea there's more than one type of mites in birds, so now I think he might have the skin or feathers ones...? Maybe they're smaller than the red ones and that's why I didn't see them. I also can't imagine where he got them because I never take him outside and i also don't have contact with other birds or animals. Since his infestation is probably not that high yet, i was thinking I might use some olive or coconut oil on his feet and nose and see if it helps him and see if i can find something in a pet shop that gets rid of parasites but is milder than ivermectin. But at least now thanks to your video, I at least know what to look for and have a general idea, so thank you!💙🦜
Did the coconut oil work? Or any other thing you mentioned?
@@Karinalarasart Hi there! No, it turns out he didn't have mites, it was due to lack of protein in his diet. I started to feed him boiled egg and worms and he's doing better now, but it's really hard to convince him to eat something other than seeds. The coconut oil only hydrated the skin on his feet in my case.
@@monio.9444 thanks for your reply, that’s great he’s doing better❤️
Also, for years i was spraying rubbing alcohol on every part of the carpet or fabric on the furniture and bed everyday and vacuum vacuum vacuumed all the time . Everyday and sometimes a couple times a day. Depending how itchy i felt. It made it stop. It was worse in spring and fall. After finding out it was mites, the right chemical really helped. But certain pest cobtrol people, just do not believe me!
So sorry for this I hope you can get rid of this very soon
Hi Donna great video, Im also a Canadian in BC. Ive had mites in my chickens, it is nasty and not easy to get rid of. I love your Bourkes. I am building an indoor aviary in a little cabin here on my property. I have a question , what breeds of birds would get along with Bourkes? thanks Hey!
Hi, If the aviary is huge you can try Cockatiels, Linnies, Canaries and possibly budgies if you don't plan to breed them. If you will be breeding any of them then it's best to keep separate as they will fight and be aggressive during breeding season.
Wow you are working hard to get rid of all the mites . So you think it came from the bird's outside?
Can the Bird mites effect my house ??
ware do mites come from do they like warm weather?
Thank you so much for sharing with us! Soo helpful!
Thank you for the best info❤️
hello I am writing this message to you from Belgium, I have just discovered red mites in the cages of my parakeets, I have already cleaned the cages and treated my birds with an adequate product, also treat the cages with products.. is what should I be afraid of having red mites all over the living room? how did it go for you? did you manage to get rid of it? I'm desperate.. thanks in advance
Hi. I did lots of cleaning and spraying for mites. I washed the walls and baseboards very often. I kept checking the end of their perches, especially their sleep perch.
I cleaned weekly as if there are eggs they would hatch.
@@Loveofpets Thank you very much for your answer!
Love from Pet's Earth❤️❤️
Hello i love your videos can u do an update on your moustache parakeet and how you and your husband interact with the senegal parrot and what its like having a moustache parakeet. Furthermore can you talk more about bird medication and preventive medication
I will do my best
Can you do a video on
Hand-fed birds vs tamed birds!?
How do they get mites? Do they develop even if they clean cages
Thanks for the important info😊
Wonderful information, thanks
Hi, thank you for you perfect explanation, I someone don't have mite or lice, what is the preventive thing we have to do additional to the cleaning? specially for baby nest for canary? thank you.
Cleaning is best and check the ends of perches and everything that attached to the cage as that's were they will hide. Also when getting new birds it's best to quarantine and check for mites or any health issue before introducing them to your current birds. Check the nest often as they like nests and they will suck blood from the babies. Change the bedding in the nest every few days if you can.
i know its out of context but i dont know what else to do.. my budgie is about 10 years old and he always vomits on his water and chews for a long time when he eats. i even went to the avian vet with him but the medication the vet suggested made him worse and she also suggested that i separate him with my other budgie, which made him upset so much that he was way way worse, he was about to die. i know budgies are social animals so whatever the reason i couldn't leave him alone without a companion to die unhappy. it's been like 9 months since this happened, he is still generally moody. one time he is happy one time he gets sleepy and fluffy. i dont know what to feed him with other than greens(daily) and eggs sometimes. the vet said the instinct to wanting to have a baby is making him sick. but without a companion he gets more upset so my hands are tied.
I have a question can the lovebird with the white ring around its eye breed with one that doesn’t?
Yes they can breed if aloud to but it's best not to let them breed together to keep the species separate. Breeding them together may cause health issues.
Love of Pets do there both go well in a cage together I may be getting one ☺️
Thank you so much for this. Will clean everything asap.
i only have one cage and one budgie, but i think she may have mights as had claened the cage today and put now white sheeting on the floor and have seen litle red/black specs on the floor after she was pruning, plus she has been dropping fethers for about a month now. i not sure where she got them from as she had no signs when we got her three months ago. How am i going to clean the cage as she is not tamed yet either so has not come out the cage yet.
Hi. Wet a paper towel and place on the black specs. If the paper towel turns red then you know it's red mites. You will have to catch your bird in a towel to put in a carrier cage while washing her cage.
5 years ago I had a birds nest on my balcony. When the birds flew away, within 20 minutes there was something crawling on my head. I had the apartment fumigated times. I carried mites to my car on my clothing. I had it fumigated 4 times. I finally left the car out in below 0 F for 4 nights. That were gone. Now 5 years later I still have small crystal like things come out of my skin. I’ve had people over and no bites. I have pictures of the sores. It has been a nightmare. I’m always itchy. They say bird mites don’t live on humans. I have found black specks everywhere. All over my kitchen counter. I’m beginning to think I’ll have this till I die.
Are you ok
Move! My God please don't suffer!
They are living in my skin. I can't get rid of it. I've tried everything and there's no cure because apparently they don't live on humans. I have news for them. They do. There are none in my house. People come to visit and get no bites. I'm stuck in this nightmare
gottabesandi ok just nuts with theitch and the thought of these icks in my skin
@@Vosygren Try Ivermectin. If a doctor won't help, I know some people buy horse Ivermectin online as it's the same thing. I've seen videos on here about the correct dose.
That was so interesting, I have never seen that in my cage but I am now wondering if these tiny dots come out of a night and settle on my iPad while watching RUclips could I actually have mites in my bedroom pleSE reply
It's possible but they mainly stay close to birds and hide in the ends of the perches and feed on the bird during the night. They are not known to fees off of people
Hello . I would like to have direct connection with you . Because I have some birds but in my country , vet. have little knowledge for birds diseases .
can you wash perches in the dishwasher with vinegar.
Thank you for this info. I am going to inspect my 2 budgie cages.
Glad it was helpful!
If we give them a bath with neem leaves + dettol mixed in water will it work??
Hi, I don't have experience using these products so not sure.
I wonder if feeding them oregano would help? I know it's good for chickens?
I have never heard of this. You can certainly give it a try but feed in moderation
Eww ewww ewww ewww! poor birds! Thank goodness you spotted them! Nasty little things! I seen mites before, mostly the red velvet ones. Man thoes ones you had were tiny! Sounds like there the same as bed bugs, just smaller and for birds. Hope you got them all. Maybe now Kingsly can get his skin issue to heal up. I bet your birds will be sleeping a lot better now with the mites gone. Shame you had to suffer mites, but thanks for the education on them.
How would I treat my home for red mites
I have 2 Indian Ringneck parrot. They are so quiet now and always scratching and plucking feather. What should I do?
Thank you so much.
Hi, I have a question about parakeets, I see you have a good experience with them. My son got me a bird cage for my bday cause he knew I want parrots. My husband got me 3, (don’t know why 3, not just 2). I have them for 4 weeks now and 2 of them are getting more comfortable to sit on my finger for a treat. Your opinion: when I should try to get them out of cage? My dream is AG but that will never happen, so, please, help me with your advice. Thank you. Vera
Hi, they can come out right away. Budgies are smart and once they know where their cage is they will go back in. I use millet spray to get them to go back in the cage and I guide them in with a long bird perch or bird ladder. But usually they go in when I say bedtime or they go in by themselves
I have find two yesterday night
Do the features grow back
Hi. Yes feathers will grow back unless they have beak and feather disease or other diseases or illnesses
The red ones sounds like 'chiggers'. But a general rule would be don't let your birds walk in the grass or on trees outdoors. They will pick up mites left behind by wild birds. Also it put them at a higher risk of getting west nile disease. I wouldn't recommend using branches you have found outdoors unless they have been boiled.
About what are u talking at 12:13? Is it about antibacterial spray that can cause organ failure or cancer?
Hi. It's a round metal disk with product inside. You hang it on the cage. It's supposed to kill lice and mites but it kills your bird instead.
I believe it's not sold in many Pet stores any more.
Thank you very much for your videos 😊💖
Hi!! I think I could use your help! I just saved a bird (apparently some type of barn swallow according to google). She couldn’t fly and I just saw she has a live fly inside her fur, and it’s been impossible to get it out! Any ideas??
I have never had mite problems except for one time. I had a society finch named Charlie he was ten years old when he died and I found him dead in his nest and he was covered with mites crawling all over his body. I never saw mites on him before , I couldn't believe it. So guess he had them all along and after he died the mites left his body?
He probably had mites already.
@@Loveofpets Yeah probably and I didn't even know . Poor little guy
thanks so much for this video!
You're speaking of the humans getting bit with the licensing mites yes my body is full of red drops and very irritated itchy
I have a parrot he is suffering from mites since last 6months😭🙏😭external parasites
He cant evn sleep
Plsss help and suggest some medicines
I wanted to find a youtuber who knows a lot about parrots, but hasn’t got so many comments that mine would get lost, so I found you and went to this video to ask something important. My cockatiel’s tail is shivering a little bit. I know tail bobbing can be a sign of a sick bird, but my bird’s tail isn’t bobbing, just shivering. My birds usually shiver but I’ve never noticed the tail doing that before, but they might have been shaking their tail a little without me noticing. I’m not sure. Can this be a sign of sickness? There are no other symptoms (except maybe sneezing, but that doesn’t happen too often, and I assume it’s just because of dust, or dry environment)
He could be scared or nervous. How old is he and how long have you had him. Did you change anything in his cage or location of his cage or anything new in his environment? Any new people in your house or new pets? He could also have a fever but may be nervous. If he continues its worth a visit to a avian vet.
Is it a possibility that the millet may have been the source of contamination in your flock?
It's possible. Mites can be in the pet stores and go into the food boxes etc. I check all boxes now like a hawk 😃
What is the best medicine for nebulizer? My veterinarian recommended HIPRALONA ENRO-S Enrofloxacin. Is this a good medicine? Is it not harmful to the budgie?
If your vet recommended this medication then it's what's best for your bird. I have used this medication in the past.
@@Loveofpets I had a bird once before and the medicine I gave it made it worse. That's why I'm scared and asking. Thank you .
@@Loveofpets is there any natural cure for Respiratory infection?
Not that I am aware of.
I have bird mites. What did you do to get shut of your mite s please.
Regular cleaning done regularly !!
That's cute!
Vetafarm Avian Insect Liquidator doesn't seem to be working for me. Mites just swim in it :) A breeder told them they changed their formula and it is not affective anymore. Any ideas?
Hi, I have never heard of this problem before. Did the bottle have a safety seal on it. I have heard of employees using it and replacing it with water. Other then that you should contact the company.
Plz would u help me plz i have kakariki female shes 8 months and her eyes has a cloudy spot on since she was 4 months years old i used many antibiotics for her many brands but its getting worse iam afraid she gets blind 😭😭 what to do plz help i appreciate it
I really really need some help I've been asking bets online and I understand they need to get paid but that's what they want the money first but then I have emergency to help these birds and then they're asking for the vet at 200 something for each and I'm trying to find something cheaper and I also need a homebody to Benjy's if somebody can take them off my hands I don't know that was not right to put in my front door but I brought them into care of taking care of them but I cannot have them do you have any suggestions what to do
Hi, contact a rescue, animal services or humane society to take them in
I know this is really late but can you please make a video on if I should get my bird a friend because I am looking into it but there is not that many good videos on it and I really don’t know what to do.
I will try my best to make a video like that
