Additional Tips:
Observe Your Bird's Cues: Pay attention to your bird's behavior. If it seems tired, let it rest. If it's energetic, engage in playtime.
Avoid Over-Stimulation: Too much stimulation can stress your bird. Balance playtime with quiet time.
Provide Enrichment: Offer a variety of toys and puzzles to keep your bird mentally and physically stimulated.
Regular Vet Check-ups: Schedule regular check-ups to monitor your bird's health.
Remember: Every bird is different. Adjust this schedule to suit your bird's individual needs and preferences. The most important thing is to provide a loving, safe, and stimulating environment.
Cage time is just as important as bonding time.
