Where To Buy Birds And Pet Supplies

Keeping birds at home as pets requires a lot of care and understanding of their needs to remain healthy. Buying cockatiels, lovebirds, parrots, or canaries is much more involved than just buying the bird and a cage. Each species of bird will require an adequate cage for its size. Most people do not realize that pet supplies and birds go hand-in hand. You cannot have one without the other. Each bird species may also have different feeding and care requirements. Birds are not as commonly available for sale as other types of pets, so it will be helpful to know where to buy pet supplies and birds.

 

 

There are a number of sources for buying pet supplies and birds if you know where to look. Pet shops may carry pet supplies and birds, but may not have a huge selection of birds. You can check the local classified listings in the paper for private owners selling birds. Online classifieds such as Craigslist may also have birds for sale now and then. eBay is an online auction site that frequently has items up for auction and sales. The eBay Classified section usually carries quite a few birds for sale and may be a good place to watch weekly.

Researching for pet supplies and birds online will probably yield the most information when looking to purchase a new bird. Search for "bird breeders" or "aviaries" and you are more than likely to come up with several bird breeders that sell many suitable varieties of birds as home pets. Many of these birds are well taken care of as young ones and even hand-fed to make them exceptionally tame.

Check out AvianBreeder.com to find breeders and birds for sale. people place ads on the site with information about the birds they have for sale. This site also includes a breeder directory where breeders advertise their birds. The site can be searched for specific species of birds or research birds by state. Do not expect most of the breeder sites to carry both pet supplies and birds.

Visit BirdBreedersInternational.com, which is a huge website focused on pet birds. There are several links to breeder sites and web rings all associated with buying and caring for birds.

If you live in a metropolitan area, there is a good chance you have a nearby Petco. Petco offers enormous amounts of bird supplies, but does not sell birds. They carry cages, toys, perches, bird food, stands and treats for birds. In addition, you can find health care products, pet bedding, and cuttlebones. The neat thing about Petco is, bird supplies can be purchased online and shipped to your home, or you can stop by a store round the corner.
