Hello everyone,,
I'm considering getting a bird soon. I know a bit but I still have a lot of research to do. Right now my biggest question is this:
I live in an RV trailer in my mom's yard and the bathroom is not hooked up, so that's where the cage is going to be. It's plenty room for a cage, but I need to know if they make cages that I can take apart and set up again as the door itself is small. If not I can probably keep the bird in my mom's house as she seemed pretty okay web design services los angeles with that idea and we have a lot more room in there, but I'd prefer to keep it in my house because I'm awake while she is sleeping and the bird and I will wake her during cleaning and etc. I won't be able to remove the cage once it's set up in the bathroom but I'll be able to put it in the shower for cleaning, just won't be able to use the shower itself. So, is this possible? Can you recommend me some brands? Also I'm looking at birds in the cockatiel-conure size range, and I'm leaning toward a tiel since I'm a new bird keeper. I should also note that I intend to let the bird have freedom while I'm awake and home (~2 hours every night and all day on thurs, sun and mon). Tips about keeping mess up as much as possible and keeping the bird from chewing my computer wires would be helpful as well. Wondering if bird diapers are a good idea or not. Thanks!
edit: Also bird species recommendations would be really helpful! I'm a huge fan of eclectus parrots but that's a plan for the future, not immediately, but maybe you could give me some ideas for easier and smaller birds that are similar appearance wise? I'm looking for something that will be interactive and maybe talkative.
edit 2: since my space is still pretty small and will be mostly taken up by the cage I will measure it in a bit and give you guys the measurements so you can help me better.
