• Quaker parrots can be housed in any cage that features 1/2” bar spacing, but also need enough surface area to extend their wings.
• They should have several perches, preferably made of different materials – wood, rope, etc. with varying diameters.
• Provide a water cup, seed cup, and fresh food cup as well as a cuttlebone.
• Toys from each category should be provided: destructible, communication, enrichment, and exercise

Safety

• Birds have much more sensitive respiratory systems than humans. Certain airborne toxins that are relatively safe for humans can cause illness or even death in our feathered friends.
• Overheated non-stick surfaces containing Teflon, such as those found on cookware, drip pans, irons, and self-cleaning ovens, can emit odorless fumes that are rapidly fatal to birds.
• Other sources of toxic fumes include spray pesticides, paints and sealants, rug cleaners, wood smoke, air fresheners, incense, scented candles, hair sprays, perfumes, cleaning products, and burning plastics.
• Be aware that in general, anything that gives off strong fumes or smoke is a potential hazard to your pet.
