Exercise

Recent research has shown that a lack of exercise is a primary factor in the development of diseases. especially atherosclerosis. This appears to be a condition that is present in all captive parrots to some degree and worsens with age.

There are a few ways a family can ensure that a pet bird has access to exercise:

a??? Free-flying would be the ultimate exercise. but there are potential associated risks. such as escape or encountering household dangers

a??? Housing in a large enough enclosure to allow free flight

a??? Placing a harness or leash on the bird and have it tethered to an outdoor line under constant observation

a??? Placing a ladder inside the enclosure to encourage movement

a??? Providing safe environmental enrichment activities

a??? Offering daily time for the bird to move around outside the enclosure with supervision
