How to keep a canary? Master the feeding methods and daily care essentials for canaries

The canary, also known as the goldfinch and white swallow, is a fairly well-known bird, and many people like to keep one at home, so how do you keep a canary?

1. Making a cage

To keep a canary, you need to make a special cage; for the choice of shape, it is generally round or square, and the cage needs to be big enough to give it space to fly.

2. Making a food dish and a droppings tray

Prepare a dish for feeding; if conditions allow, you can choose one woven from grass, so it will eat with more appetite. It is best to fix this food dish to the top of its birdcage. You also need to prepare a tray specifically for catching its droppings; this one needs to be watertight, placed at the bottom of the birdcage, and it also needs to be cleaned regularly so that it stays cleaner.

3. Feeding

As for feeding, you need to feed it at set times every day. You can add some appropriate amounts of egg, millet and other foods to its meal, and you can also choose fresh cabbage; these are all good for it.

4. Bathe it frequently

The canary is a kind of bird that loves cleanliness very much, so no matter what season it is, we usually need to bathe it to keep it healthy. If the weather is good, you should take the canary out to bask in the sun every day; this is of some help in making the color of its feathers look nicer.
