Once you've got your parrot, it will become your immediate family member for a long time, so if you are ever care about your parrot, you should be very sure that your parrot gets the best living conditions you could get.
Seeing how his bird cage will be his home for the most part of his life (unfortunately, leaving even the best trained parrots fly freely through the house poses a real danger to them, or is a potential risk for them to run away), hence choosing the appropriate parrot cages is a very important task
The first criteria of choosing the appropriate parrot cages should obviously be the bird cage's size.The parrot cages' size is advisable to be directly proportional to the parrot size. By sticking a large macaw in a smaller cage will not only make your parrot uncomfortable, but it will in fact affect its health and mood in a negative way, for more obvious reasons.
However, this doesn't say that smaller birds is necessary to have small cages either. In fact, the larger the cage, the happier the parrot will be! Of course, you might not be able to fit the largest bird cages due to your house's decorations , you can try finding a small room that has ample space for a parrot cage, placing it there would be much better rather than on “traditional”, smaller places.
And even if you are able to get the largest of parrot cages from market, I want you to remember that it is still a CAGE. Give your parrot the freedom to fly (around the house, make sure that all windows or doors are well closed or else it might escape through them) will do heaps of good for his liveliness, mood and health. Try keeping an eye for discounts on parrot cages too because this will certainly save you a hell of a money.
Make sure when you're choosing the appropriate parrot cages, the parrot cages' shape is something you'll need to keep in mind. You might have noticed that most traditional cages have a cylindrical shape, having a greater height than their length.
It is very bad for your parrot, since it's unable to fly around (they can't fly straight up or straight down, can they?).
Vertical cages have an edge of advantage, because they allow the parrot to climb up and down on the bars, which offers a better compensation to the fact that they can't exercise otherwise.
The materials from which the bars and cage door are made of is also one of the main consideration when you're choosing the appropriate parrot cages. Some bird cages are made of poor plastics or toxic metals and since most parrots have the bad habit of chewing everything surrounding them, the negative effects these cages could cause are pretty obvious. Moreover, quality material bird cages also reflect better for your overall home decoration.
Although these are the one of the main parameters you should focus on whenever you're choosing a parrot cage, you might want to pay more attention to further details, how easily are parrot cages maintained (it depends alot on the material used for the cage), the ability to attach perches and accessories directly to the cage, its bar spacing (you should make sure that your parrot won't get caught between the bars in case they are too tight) and having a secure door.
Most importantly, you should always think from your parrot's point of view when choosing the appropriate parrot cages, asking yourself what would make him more comfortable and happy. But make sure you also don't put a hole on your wallet when you choosing the appropriate parrot cages, it's best you do a research on the best offers on parrot cages for sale in the market before anything else!
