I feel bad for the bird in the blue cage because it is obvious that poor bird was an impulse buy. The owner didn't do enough research and that makes me really sad. Of course, I have a small cage for my budgie, but that is just temporary because we are going to move her in with our other budgie that has a much bigger cage. I hate people that are willing to buy a living, breathing animal and don't take care of it! Your birds are very lucky and obviously loved greatly. I love my two budgies with all my heart, Mango and Cookie, everyone should take care of there birds.

[@vanessasolano5281]

Super Chickens, same here, my dad and I where given a cockatiel pair when our neighbors moved. They gave them to us in the night and when we got the cage I was horrified. It barely had any flying space and was one of those cages that where thinner but taller with a round top, only one perch and one toy. As soon as the sun rose the next morning my dad and I went to a local pet store and got them a way better cage and toys. They have loved it ever since and loving being on top of the cage where we set up a playground and love to fly around our house.

[@Random-xq4by]

Yes! You are so amazing for doing that!

[@nevaehspets6551]

Super Chickens I see one of your videos with two very beautiful rabbits in the thumbnail, but their cage looks very small. Bunnies need at least 8 square feet of space but it’s best to use 12-16 square feet or more. I recommend using an x-pen that’s at least 3 feet tall. They are about 35-45 US dollars on amazon. For bedding you can use fleece or some blankets. You need some kind of padding because they don’t have paw pads like cats, dogs, and many other common pets. You can also easily litter train them. Find a KZbin video on how to do it. (Recommended rabbit KZbin channels at end of comment) For their diet you should feed 1/4 cup of pellets per day. No extra colors, flavors, or seeds. Rabbits can’t digest seeds. You also need to give two cups of vegetables per rabbit. Dark leafy greens are great, but look up anything you are not sure that they can eat. They should also have unlimited hay. Orchard grass or Timothy hay. It should be a nice shade of green and shouldn’t have anything extra in it. You can give small pieces of fruit for a treat. Herbs are optional but great. The rest you can figure out yourself using these channels and some other sources. Double check everything you hear. Channels to watch: 101Rabbits, Victoria Raechel, Hook’s Hollands, and StormyRabbits

[@keba1126]

I really wish that those small flimsy cages with the plastic bottoms would just go away. A couple of the cages made me really sad for the birds. I know not everybody gets it right the first time, but you gotta do your research first. Why spend $50 on a small cage, when you can just get a nice flight cage 3-4 times the size for around $100 on amazon? They're cheap. Even if the birds are out of the cage most of the day like mine, I'd still rather my bird have a ton of room to climb and play for times when they do have to go in the cage. She loves her cage & will go in & play on her own. I hope everyone listens to the recommendations.

[@Mikagow]

I just really wish they didnt advertise it as a bird cage and instead as a travel cage. They're great for taking your bird to the vet and stuff but nothing else!

​@@ElleAndTheBirdsBefore I saw your channel, I never knew how to take care of a bird. Now after watching most of your vids, I'm giving advice to new people! It's amazing how I improved on how to take care of birds!

[@breyanna6951]

I don’t think people realize how easy it is to make toys for your birds ... I’m sitting here seeing that people can’t find toys in their area or are buying toys that I have seen that are over priced in stores (like most of the cardboard toys, are like $10 or over in stores in my area) and I’m completely baffled! What I would recommend is making toys for your birds... and it is soooo easy! What I do is Get a piece of string Get an egg carton (make sure it’s not plastic!!), if you don’t eat eggs, ask your neighbour or a friend. I’m sure someone you know eats eggs and has an extra egg carton that they don’t need. Egg cartons are my cockatiel’s favourite thing to chew Get a paper towel/ toilet paper roll Get scrap pieces of paper that your are not using... You can even use paper towel... (my cockatiel doesn’t like to chew on paper towel because she like to hear the crunch when she chews on it) Next, now that you have gathered materials. You need to assemble! Take your chewing materials and with the pointy tip of a knife, poke a tiny hole in each one Then string the materials onto the string... tie a knot and add it to the side of the bird cage! In the next couple of weeks you will find that you will need to add new material cause it would be all chewed up!!! Now, if your too lazy to do that, I have something even simpler!! If you eat cereal or anything that comes out of a cardboard box, rip off a piece of the box and use a binder clip to clip it to the edge of your cage. Boom! Super duper easy toys for your bird! One last thing, Please give your birds toys it is very easy... and inexpensive to make toys! Bird don’t care it is in the shape of a heart or a star, if it’s is folded neatly in a the shape a a box! They just want to chew! There should be no excuse for not providing the proper materials!!! Also for those of you who are wondering, I have a normal gray female cockatiel, I’ve had her for 7ish months and her name is Cleo!! I have to give the credit for this idea to my mom, she was sick of buying over priced toys, and just started making her own! Thanks mom!

[@heyyyitsellie6799]

So true!! , I live in a really rural area where the nearest pet shop is an hour away and all the bird toys are so expensive!!! Even the cages are so small yet so over priced!

I can totally understand how that cage is very small for that bird! I don’t know the owner of that bird(or where they live)and maybe no one will see this comment. But maybe that person is not educated enough and thats why they sent that picture to gain knowledge and get some constructive criticism. Bird cages can get really expensive and sometimes its the bird store’s fault for telling the customers that “small cages are fine” ! When i got my bird the store told me millet and sunflower seeds were fine for my cockatiel but i came on the internet and educated myself! So hopefully that person will do the same. For the cage you don’t always have to spend hundreds to buy but you can get someone to help you and build one together!

It’s to the point where I walk next to the cage and they fly to the back immediately. I also hate the method that pet smart used to get them, they walked in the room with a net caught them not very gently and shoved them in a box. I know I shouldn’t have gotten them from pet smart but I was not well educated at the time. I honestly just want my birds to love me as much as I do to them.

I feel like people who buy small cages for birds just don’t have enough space for a pet, so they think birds would be perfect because most people spread misinformation saying that they can live in really small cages, I also feel like people who know nothing about them don’t really consider them as pets and think they’re dumb, these cages should be banned just like bowls for goldfish (except if it’s for travelling)

[@MrMARKWHAT]

Boules De Plumes well I don’t think they should be banned cause I have one budgie he is a boy,blue and white, but pastel version and when we first got him as my birthday present I had to get a small cage to start off with,then we moved up to a bigger one and he is perfectly fine :D. My opinion

Jada hatfield Maybe he’s a dilute that’s why his color is more clear, but I really think they should be banned, even if it’s just to start.

Boules De Plumes he is pastel like do you know those birds that have blue white and black on there back and part of there wings, his is gray and even his beak colour is lighter

[@Lamrabetnouha]

Jada hatfield It’s a mutation that causes the color of the budgie to be washed off like 80% of it, there are other mutations like greywing that also cause the color to be washed off but the dilute is the one that makes it more clear.

I've heard the fabric can get caught in their crops and cause damage there as well,and the hormone thing. Guys, please listen to her and throw the hut out if you have one,even if your bird loves it.

I can’t tell if that tiny cage for the cockatiel was serious or not. I almost want to think it was their travel cage and they sent it as a mean joke just to see what you would say. But at the same time I can see someone really not knowing and were legitimately asking for help, maybe it was a child’s pet and they got tasked with taking care of it or something. I mean, I received a budgie from my aunt when I was 5, it’s cage was the same as the hanging budgie cage, she got tasked with caring for it because kids didn’t care, so she saw I liked the bird and gave it to me instead, in that tiny cage. First thing we did was get a giant cage for him, and boy did he love it! Granted you still had to do research at libraries for information because internet wasn’t as big yet, so she gets more of a pass for not knowing/understanding than whoever sent you that picture. At least look up dimensions of a decent sized cage for a bird before buying. Perches/toys are more forgivable if they’re not quite proper your first time around than a cage. It’s also possible they simply saw the bird at a pet store and binge bought it as well as a cage right in the store and it’s only temporary and were looking for recommendations on what to do instead of researching immediately. But again, better to have the proper size cage from the start rather than house it in poor conditions for x amount of time. That cage isn’t even suitable for a single finch.

[@KazukiMatsuoka]

Hello Ellie, the last cage you reviewed was mine and it was nice that my baby was immortalised in some way. Buddy passed away a few months ago, he was 8 years old. He had two tumors, and due to his age he wouldn't survive a surgery. After his diagnosis we looked after him for two more years, before the tumors got too big and he couldn't fly very far anymore due to the weight. We gave him walks outside the house in our back yard and gave him so much cuddles. We put him down at home where he felt safe and he passed without any pain. 😢 thank you so much and it's nice to come back to this.

[@mjmmaddie1125]

Saying this out of caution because I've seen a lot of bad bathing on tik tok, If your showering, having the bird perched on the curtain rod or somewhere away from water is fine and bathes them from the steam. Letting them bathe themselves in VERY shallow water is great, too. Some birds like to be sprayed or misted. With running water, please make sure the water pressure going on them is LIGHT. Really should be like droplets, not a steady stream. If your bird is standing still, head up while under constant water flow it is frozen in fear, inhaling water, and struggling to breathe. @stupid.ratgirl on tik tok explains this very well! I'm not saying you do that to your bird or trying to be mean at all, just putting this information out there for people who don't know any better! :)

Im buying a cockatiel in less than 2 weeks, your videos are really helping me learn about toys & diet! Bought "great choice" as a seed mix, noticed it had food coloring in it and will be returning for something all natural!

[@joy941]

Wow! I didn’t know budgies could get so sick from eating just seeds :( My budgies grew up eating only seeds, with very little human interaction. My sister and I adopted them but they are so scared of us even though it’s been two years! They have a nice big cage and lots of toys but no shredding paper toys that you mentioned in the video, I’ll look into that! Unfortunately they are easily frightened. We tried giving them pieces of fruit and veggies (blueberry, strawberry, cucumber etc.) but they just hide in the corner of the cage. We noticed they started eating the leaves of a plant beside their cage so we stick lettuce between the bars regularly, however anything else that’s not leaf shaped will scare them and they refuse to try it, rarely they try anything new. So for now it’s only seeds and lettuce :/ I’m hoping for improvement. If we stick out hands in the cage with seeds in our palms eventually they will come, if they’re hungry enough. We’ve gotten them out of the cage twice, the first time they continued to eat their seed but watched everything with wide eyes and the second time they freaked out and one went into the cage and the other had us chase him up the stairs into my room. At this point I don’t have much hope for them, though it’s awful that they stay caged up like that. They eat well, chirp and sing a lot and are very cheerful budgies so health wise I’m not too worried. The fact is they’re terrified of human interaction (they’re fine if we sit by their cage, they sing even louder actually) but if we put our hands in immediately they’re on alert. Thanks for sharing this video, it helped me learn more about things I didn’t know my budgie’s needed. Any suggestions on how to earn a budgies trust is appreciated 🙌🏼

[@Blue_Oceanic]

Try giving them chop it’s a bunch of veggies chopped all together in a food processor. It has a similar texture to seed and a lot of birds like it. Give it a try and taming your budgies can take forever. Try taking to them and placing your hand in there cage if you need any more help check out more of Elles videos and this website called wiki how. Don’t give up

[@joy941]

@@Blue_Oceanic I forgot I wrote this comment. Thanks for the tips!

[@kicknicky]

Lots of birds often are given away fed on seeds only. What I can suggest is slowly wean them off the seeds, add small amounts of pellets to their seed and slowly lower the amount of seeds over time. It allows them to get used to the change at their pace and eventually they should be off seeds. Same can be with fruits/veggies. It’s a slow process but ensures that a birds diet is healthy and benefits both you and the bird. Adding to the trust part, birds are known to be skittish animals who scare easily, so it’s important to take it slow and be gentle. One tactic I learned was to buy millet and stick it through the cage while you hold it, this will show your bird that you mean no harm. Overtime maybe open it the cage door and offer the millet still at a distance from the bird and your hand. You can slowly make the millet closer to your hand and try to put the millet in your palm to offer treat and let them get your scent and presence. The bird should feel comfortable over time and then you can move on to having the millet just further so they can’t reach, making them climb onto your hand to reach it. This builds trust and teaches how to step up as well. Always have a quiet and calm voice when doing this to show that you mean no harm. If you’ve had them for a while it may take a while, but it’s worth it in the end. I know this comment is late but I hope it helps for the future!

I understand if you don’t have the money or space for a reasonable bird cage, but if you can’t invest in it, I wouldn’t recommend buying a bird in the first place.

Hi. I’ve had my budgies for almost a year and they aren’t tamed, still. When I was younger and naive and uneducated, I got 3 budgies at the same time (my siblings also wanted a bird, too). Their cage is in the living room, so if they want to get out the cage, they have the ability to fly everywhere around the house, and they have gotten hurt before. Their cage is very big so I cannot fit it in my room. My sibling kept the millet in their cage so it isn’t a treat to them anymore. I don’t know how to take them out without them flying and hurting themselves. I think it’s mainly because the birds depend and trust each other more than they trust me. I tried watching your videos and the mechanism didn’t work. Please help me, I don’t like keeping my birds inside their cage all the time, but at the same time don’t want them to get extremely injured.

[@CVersailles]

Very sound advice. You are quite the diplomat! I've had several types of cages for my birds over the years. Currently, my 4 male budgies are lodged in 2 breeding cages! They love it and so do I. Each has his own space, something they really seem to enjoy, yet they can interact with their respective companions through the divider bars. Cage doors are kept open for most of the day, as I am retired. As one gets older, the BIG cages become somewhat of a burden, so compromises are needed. There is always room for improvement, but as one gains experience, one can tell whether a bird is comfortable in his/her environment.
