SOLUTION: How can I weigh my bird?

This is the good example of that why you cannot tell their Nappy suit size by age. Stanley(Left) is around 3months old and he weighs nearly 100g, on the other hand Charlie (right) is 1year and 2months and he weighs 77g. I use the digital kitchen scale and put a […] More details »

SOLUTION: “My bird doesn’t poop in the Nappy Suit!”

Poo on the keyboard

Charlie pooped “pointing with an index finger” shape one, right after taking Nappy suit off. Not poop in the Nappy suit is a normal behaviour for the early stages, but birds are much smarter than we think they will learn the new routines quickly, the important thing is to MAKE […] More details »

COMPARISON: Bad Toy vs Good Toy

Good Toy VS Bad Toy

Bad Toy vs Good Toy I have to admit that I didn’t have a clue when I made my very first bird’s toy for Charlie (left one). I was told by my avian vet that most of the materials are bad for Chalie. I was shocked. So what’s wrong with […] More details »

SOLUTION: How can I stop my bird biting the nappy suit?

My bird bites the nappy suite

It’s normal behaviour for your bird to bite the nappy suit. Charlie’s case I started putting the nappy suit on Charlie from Day 1 when I got him, he was just 7weeks old. I have researched about the flight suits a way before I got Charlie. “If my bird cannot […] More details »

CARE : Clean the nappy suit.

clean the nappy suit

Sometimes it happens, when your bird had a wet poop. This is how I clean my nappy suit. I don’t need to clean the nappy suit every time when Charlie did poop, just changing the liner (a half cut cotton pad). Occasionally I clean it without soaking it in a […] More details »

EXPERIMENT: Can The Mobile Bird Feeder works for any clothes I wear?

The mobile bird feeder works for any kind of clothes.

Works for any type of collars. Well, I know it is not a good idea to feed your bird on your shoulder when you are in the nice clothes though your bird is in a nappy suit, because your bird spreads the seeds all over your clothes while eating. However […] More details »
