How to train a canary to sing
Summary Singing training: during the fledgling stage, place the young bird next to an older bird and play recordings of bird calls; after 5-6 months the bird's song will be soft and have a vibrato. Free-flight training: do not put food in the food dish in the cage; place the food on a bamboo strip and move it to the cage entrance, open the cage door and let the bird eat; after a few more days, train it indoors with the doors closed for 5-6 days, and the bird will develop a conditioned reflex. Fetching training: when feeding, tease it in front of its beak; once it can peck at the food in your hand, toss the food in front of its beak to lure the bird into catching the food with its mouth.

How to train a canary
1. First of all, the purpose of raising a canary is not only to make it obedient, but more to build more trust and communication with the pet and form a positive interactive relationship. So we recommend positive reinforcement training, which requires the owner to set aside plenty of time. Many people complain they do not have enough time, but if you do not have the time, then you are not suited to keeping a pet.
2. Canaries like a clean environment, so the droppings in the cage should be removed frequently, and the perch should also be cleaned often. The drinking water should be changed every day. Canaries like water baths, so in summer let them bathe once a day. In addition, for canary training, first you need to see what subject is being trained, how old the pet being trained is, and what breed it is, as well as how the training methods differ among different canary breeds.

1. Feed it and keep it happy. A canary's body is relatively weak, so it should usually be given more exercise; therefore, the cage must be spacious, and it is best to use a specially made canary cage. Male and female birds are usually kept in separate cages, with only 1 bird per cage. In August and September they are moved to breeding cages and kept together to let them breed.
2. Breeding cages are mostly made of wood, 46 cm * 30 cm * 35 cm. Weave grass or bamboo strips into an artificial nest shaped like a bowl, with a top opening diameter of 11 cm and a depth of 5 cm, and hang it at the top of the breeding cage. The openings of the food jar and water jar placed in the cage should be large, the perch is best if it is flat and oval, and fine sand should be spread on the bottom of the cage. When each animal is happy, it will also be joyful.

Male and female birds are kept in cages, with only one per cage. Between August and September, they are moved to breeding species and cages to keep them in the nest.
