How to Set Up a Parrot Cage - The Right Way

Big topic this week, and it’s one every bird owner (or future bird owner) needs to hear. A cage isn’t just a place to keep your bird, it’s essential for their safety, comfort, and overall well-being in captivity. In this episode, we’re breaking down what a proper cage setup really means, how to use it effectively in your home, and why it's far more than just a box with bars. At Parrot Stars, we take cages very seriously. In fact, we don’t allow any of our birds to go home until we’ve approved a suitable cage and essential supplies. If you ever visit us in-store, we’d love to help optimize your bird’s living space! As always, be kind to your Parrot and it will be kind to you!
