African Grey Parrot Housing

One of the most important aspect when deciding to purchase an African Grey Parrot, is the environment it will live in. First you must ensure your parrot feels safe and comfortable within its living space. There are many colors, shapes and sizes of bird cages available today, Below are several helpful hints to help you decide which bird cage is suitable for both your parrot and your house.

• Where will it be stored - The best place to put a cage is somewhere away from drafts and in an area which people will visit often.
• Wing Span - Your African Grey parrot must be able to easily spread its wings
• Shape of the cage - Generally, round/oval cages are usually the best, however custom cages can be made to suit your needs.

A good bird cage can cost a good amount of money, however considering African Grey parrots can live up to 50 years old, it is definitely a worthy investment.
