Housing your bird is an important part of maintaining your feathered companion's health and happiness! While bigger is always better, the AAV (Association of Avian Veterinarians) has set forth guidelines for the minimum cage size you should be using based on your species. Below is the chart for quick reference, separated by species. We here at PEAC strive to have the biggest and best enclosures and aviaries for our fosters and personal birdies.

The Parrot Education & Adoption Center along with other bird rescue organizations are a vital part of parrot rehabilitation and rehoming process for birds that are relinquished to shelters and rescues. Most organizations, like PEAC, are inundated with requests to take in parrots but the real question is, "Why are so many parrots relinquished to rescues?" Here are the top 5 reasons: 1. Many bird owners don’t realize how long parrots can live! Some birds can live 60 - 75 yea...rs, depending on the species. 2. Parrot owners are uneducated about normal bird behavior. PEAC offers educational classes that review what you can expect from a parrot in your home. 3. Parrots are purchased on a whim - there are many individuals and places selling parrots to make a profit, where they end up or how they are treated isn't a priority. 4. Parrots owners are willing to purchase birds but not provide veterinary care. Finding a properly trained avian vet can be costly and may require a bit of a drive to get to. 5. Parrot owners don’t recognize a birds puberty and sexual frustration. Just like humans, birds can become hormonal and react in unexpected behaviors. We love parrots and we're sure you do too! Let's do our part to make sure we have healthy, happy and long term relationships with our birds. A special thank you to Robert Seymour for this beautiful artwork!
