Cockatiel Companion and The Pheasantasiam

11 жыл бұрын

Large Aviary. Walk in Aviary Overview, Construction, Plantings, Birds @ Pheasantasiam.
The Pheasantasiam is around 33m² (355ft²) and was originally being built as a Pheasant aviary but now currently holds 25 birds from 6 different species. These birds are Lady Amherst Pheasants, Cockatiels, Quail, Ringneck (Barbary) Doves, Turquoisine (Grass Parakeets), Java Sparrows (Java Finch). The Chickens you see in my videos are free range and do not have access to the aviary although they always want to get in.
In this video the aviary (Pheasantasiam) is around 17 months old. In that time we have had 6 Java Sparrows born in the aviary as well as 2 Turquoisine parrots. These numbers would be a lot more if it wasn't for us removing nesting boxes. The Javas are always looking for places to make nests. The construction materials of the aviary are explained in the video.
Please do not use the KZfaq supplied "Automatic Captions" unless you are doing so for a laugh, they are so inaccurate. If the need arises or I get the time I will type up some correct captions.
The aviary is fully planted with a natural earth base. It is easy to keep clean as the size is big enough for nature to take care of the droppings and seed is not wasted as it usually sprouts giving the birds a fresh source of greenery to eat.
This style of aviary is made a lot easier due to the very small amount of predators and rodents in the aviary location.
I am a collector of Palms also so the aviary has plenty of those. (Check out my channel if you wish to see more palm videos)
I have lots of videos of the birds in the Pheasantasiam on my channel so please take a look if you want to see a specific type of bird more closely.
Please also subscribe above and like the video (if you like it) and feel free to ask questions on How to build an aviary or comment below.

I live in Ireland and I have a couple of heat lamps in the outdoor parts of my avairy which are only open to them on warm days,they choose to sit near the heat lamps on cold day's.i don't leave them go in it all the time as I don't want nest s built out there...even on a cold day I'll let them out only if I can stay with them for exercise,they love it ...do all you can for ur bird it's the least we can do..

@kit2130 5 жыл бұрын

W♥️W!!! Your aviary has everything. Do you throw grit in the dirt for them to get naturally? Where do the quail sleep since they aren't using their house on the ground? The thoughtfulness & way you notice what they like (such as the bird always looking for a higher roost) is extraordinary. I'm about to convert a giant parrot cage to an indoor aviary like this. I'll need a grow light. This makes birds so happy & that happiness is contagious to watch!

@marshall886 9 жыл бұрын

It looks quite clean, I see you are north enough to have kikikuyu and I think it grow copes well with the birds, it's regeneration means you have a plant can break down waste quickly, so it cannot become a breeding ground for disease.

Hi, The size of the openings on our mesh are 19mm and the wire is 16gauge (I think), which is about 1.25mm or 0.050inch. I don't have any parrots as large as an Amazon, but I would definitely go for a larger gauge of at least 14, but preferably around 12 (2mm). Cheers.

What about rats and mice do you have a problem with them , I had to put sheet metal around my aviary to stop the mice from getting in , the little buggars can squeeze through the 10 mm square mesh and my dog killed a couple of rats in our yard don’t know where they came from but they have gone now , love your aviary a magnificent structure you could sit in there with a cup of coffee and just relax , all the best from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺
