Parrot Perch
Parrot Perch
A pole or rod, usually horizontal, that serves as a resting area for birds. Although bird perches may seem insignificant at the time of purchase they are of great importance. As parrots spend the majority time standing on their feet, comfortable perches allow them to stand comfortably. Perches should be selected based on the parrot’s size and type. The material chosen for a perch should be non-toxic as the birds are known to chew on them. Some perches are branches from tree.
Perch placement is also important. The perches should also be placed in proximity to food and water dishes so that the birds can easily access them. However, perches should not be placed directly over the other perch or food or water dish, in order to avoid contamination from the bird’s droppings. The easiest way to find out the best perch for your bird might be to experiment with different styles.
