1What do you all think about sleeping cages?

 

i think they're a nice idea if you have room for one somewhere dark and quiet.

 

2.What do you all think about sleeping huts only to be put in the sleeping cage?

 

i don't think they are necessary.. it's up to you and you're bird, but they can encourage nesting behaviour in females

 

3.What is the most comfortable things to put in sleeping cages?

 

it doesn't need much since they're only going to be sleeping in it, a couple of solid perches that they can grip onto.. my grey likes to sleep on his concrete perch. a couple of toys and food and water incase they wake up.

 

4.Is their a special perch I should use?

 

like i said, something with good grip with a generous circumfrance.

 

5.Should I cover the cage at night?

 

that is up to you, if you have the sleep cage in a quiet dark room where no one will go till morning then you don't need to cover

 

6.What time should I put my AG to bed?

 

what ever works best for you and your schedule. but it is best to go by your grey, you will know when it wants to go to sleep

 

7.What time do they wake up?

 

when it gets light, which is why the sleep room should be darkened.. or i find it best to cover in a light room. my grey is alway awake when i go in, but he knows it's not "get up" time till i remove the cover.

 

hope this helps
