If you own a pet bird you may already know the importance of having a bird cage cover. Putting a cage cover over your bird is a sign that it's time for bed. It lets them know to be quiet for the night and it helps in keeping them on a set schedule. Another good thing about a bird cage cover is how it will also keep them from singing away at 4:30 in the morning. Birds tend to wake up a little earlier than I do.
There are some important points to keep in mind when using bird cage cover:
- While you can put something like a pillow case over your bird cage, you would be better off getting a cage cover that is made for your cage.
- Don't use a bird cage cover to punish your favorite parrot or cockatiel. Doing so can actually lead to its in effectiveness at night.
- Use the cage cover at the same time each night if at all possible. It may come as a surprise to some, but birds need a schedule just like we do in order to lead a happy, healthy life.
You can find bird cage covers in many pet supply stores as well as on the internet. Prices will depend on the size of your bird cage as well as the type of material used. Another option is to make your own custom cage cover for your bird. You could pick out a material that matches the decor in your home to give it a nicer touch. Just be sure to get a fabric that is washable.
As you can see, adding a bird cage cover is important for your bird. And hopefully these tips can help give you some great ideas for your own cage.
