Canaries are THE BEST birds to have, they are hardy yet delicate to engage with, beautiful and sing amazingly. I had canaries when I was 6 , now 40 years later I have a new pair and they had babies... easiest birds... but I feed them very well, seeds, veg, lettuce. I also have zebra finches who are cute and hardy as well and 2 budgies who are definitely high maintenance...Canaries dont care about toys but mine fly around freely most days.

I always get a tall cage - it is beautiful and allows them exercise and flight!! Ad you do not want a parrot cage as they just showed in this video You do not want the bars to far apart... they love the egg mixtures that you can purchase from pet stores.

Compared to parakeets, canaries are surprisingly expensive, the pet store near me sells them for 150 dollars, and petsmarts sells them for 149

Great video. It is worth adding that canaries need cleanliness not only in the cage but also in the place where they stay. However, I have a question. I see in the video that you have some canaries. Have they had any accidents or injuries, and if so, what type and what were the consequences? Thank you in advance for your answer. Once again - great movie 😍🥰😍

Canaries are awesome pets... especially if you do not have allot of time for cleaning feeding and constant attention! The are loving and great pets... the love to be talked to and you can slowly get their trust to let them step up and be touched. You do not want to let any bird fly free in the house as one day for sure they will fly into a window and break their necks... I have owned many birds large and small...
@Chel10sea6 ай бұрын
I disagree, birds are meant to be free and fly. They shouldn’t be kept as pets in the first place, but if we do have them as pets, it is best to allow them the freedom to fly and exercise. Birds are intelligent and they will learn quickly not to fly into a window if that does happen. In the wild there are many, many dangers and animals learn to survive. They are perfectly capable of doing the same in a closed environment.
@Chel10sea6 ай бұрын
Just my two cents. I let my bird have free rein of the house. He hates being in his cage.

In my country, border canary is called Belgian canary (canário belga), fancy canary is Spanish canary.

I used to have a canary many years ago. He was only a look at pet always didn’t like to be handled and was scared of us when we cleaned his cage. He did sing around us though no problem. We had him for about 7 years and just found him dead in his cage. Not sure if that’s their lifespan or not? I ended up getting a Bearded Dragon shortly afterwards a way more sociable pet than a canary!

I'm caring for a baby house finch that's nest was attacked by a crow. This bird survived and is ok but the other baby birds got killed. My neighbor rescued him and she works gave him to me when he was 12 days old. This is day 33 and baby bird is doing well. At first I was feeding him every hour or two for 15 hours a day and keeping him warm and clean in a little box inside a small cage. I think he is about 33 days old today. A week ago I put him in a large budgie cage with seeds and greens which he pecks at and eats a little of-but he still wants to be fed. So I still feed him 7-8 times day. People on FB said I should have taken it to a bird rehabber. I know it is illegal to keep him but I am afraid he will not survive if I release him now. Can I buy a society finch from the pet store so this wild house finch can have a friend? Another you tuber hold me that a canary is better companion for this wild hand raised house finch than a society finch. What do you think? You say canaries are solitary birds so I am confused.

I have a male canary that I rescued, I'm afraid he will think of me as his mate so I consider buying another bird for him but I read so many story that things can go bad when u introduced second bird. So I'm in dilemma.
@sellery636911 ай бұрын
Why are you afraid the canary will think of you as his mate? What are the bad stories? I had a single małe, but he was very unhappy being alone, so that he developed a compulsive behaviour of constantly pecking his ring. I had to take him to a vet to remove it and i bought him a female. It was good for him, they kept together, but then you have to face an issue of chicks. Every canary has a different character, but they are sociable, so should not be left alone, not for most of the time.
