A
s the warmer weather arrives reports of lost and found birds are slowly increasing.
Two recent reports of birds being lost
were involving accidents with cages whilst the birds were being transported. On one occasion the bottom fell out of a cage whilst being carried allowing a parrot to escape and on the other the carrier box was accidentally dropped and the pin came out of the door allowing two budgies to escape. These incidents led me to think that it
may be a good idea to tape the doors of carrying cages and the bottom if it’s a clip on base whilst transporting birds. This may be something worth
considering when transporting birds to / from shows.
06 32 BIRD SCENE Talking of shows security needs to be
kept in mind, don’t leave birds unattended and be careful not to give unknown members of the public any details which might enable them to trace your home and aviaries. Always use catching aviaries if they are provided , if not then try and find somewhere safe to transfer birds, I see birds escape on a regular basis at shows , particularly birds for sale where people fail to use catching aviaries. I’ve had two cases recently where birds have been found and have close rings, I’ve managed to trace the breeder, however on contacting the breeder they haven’t a clue who they sold their birds to. Records of purchasers and contact telephone numbers should be kept with
