I bang on the window, have hung windchimes, and sent my small poodle out to “get um”, but no avail, they are eating all the seed , 25 pounds in a few days, and scare all the others away. Can anyone give me some advice on how to keep the black birds away? My husband wants me to stop feeding them, but I just can’t do it!
Help me, give me something to work with. I know you guys can help me.
THANK you all for any good hearted advice.

I have lots of birds in the yard and want to feed them but when I put out a feeder, it spills and I get mice/rats that come around. (I live on a hill and so we have little field mice) but also sometimes a rat will come (gross). Does anyone know of a feeder that will not spill over? Something sturdy? Thanks!

We have just finished building our chicken coop, and the outside run is huge and completely secure. I was wondering if I could put a few parakeets or lovebirds in with my chickens, obviously with their own nesting boxes, food source, perches, etc. Would they harass each other? Would they eat each others food and cause a problem? Does anyone know of this ever being done? By the way, I live in Arizona so the weather isn’t a problem. Thanks.

I just got lovebirds not long ago and i feed them dry bread anf letuce and of coarse their seed diet.
But i want to give them something new. This might sound stupid but i want to make a “cook book” i guess you can call it for my birds. I have a few recipies from the internet but always looking for more.
Also if someone may email and teach me a little about love birds. tell me what you do for your birds and how they/it reacts to it. This would be apreciated.
Thanks a bunch!!!
We have a pair of cockatiels that had two babies, I want to say about three weeks ago. We’re wanting to hand feed them, but don’t know when we are suppose to take them out and start handfeeding them. Does anyone know any sites that give info about the timing of baby birds and feeding directions?
Thanks.

Can anyone advise me on which is best,
1) nest boxes in the flight area allowing my 2 sets of birds to just have a “free for all” attitude or
2) put them 2 sets into their own private breeding cage and let them get on with it.
I have had 2 answers from bird loving friends but one said colony breeding with nest boxes and the other said hand picked certain birds in private quarters. I am so confused now HELP…
