Many people keep single or pairs of birds in cages. They are easy to tame and get used to their surroundings and the people who look after them.
Many of the parrot type family, budgies etc being allowed out with their owners as would a cat or dog.
What about aviary birds? Over the years I have had a variety of small birds in two large aviaries I had in the UK.
A colony of budgies can give hours of pleasure, if one is not worried about showing the birds allowing them to colony breed, picking their own partners, can produce beautifully coloured birds and a ready market is always available from private buyers or selling them to local pet stores for cash or food.
Canaries, finches, lovebirds, cockatiels the list is endless and the enjoyment they give just as long.
Do you keep an aviary?
What birds do you keep?
Did you build it or was it store bought?
