BIRDS - WATER DISH

I think this may be one of the things that gets the most overlooked of all things in the bird cage. It is essential that the water dish be changed every day. Many pet owners make the mistake of thinking that water only needs to be changed every week or so. Remember that there are a lot of things that can grow in the water that you might not see and might not be healthy for your bird. Even with a smaller bird, remember that a small bird does not need to ingest as much bacteria or parasites to get as sick as a large parrot, because of its small size.

By taking the time and simply changing the water on a daily basis, you eliminate the chance of any algae or bacteria growing in the dish.

A great rule of thumb is to change it on a daily basis.
