How would you like a really nice heated hospital cage without paying out vast sums of money? This is a tip sent to me by Chris of Cams Bird, Long Island, USA.
Get a small fish tank or plastic hamster box. Buy a small aquarium heater and fill a large Nescafe jar with water. Put your heater in the water, having first made a hole in the lid for the lead to come through. Line the tank with newspaper, place a jamjar feeder of seed in the corner, plug in the heater and put the lid on. Test the heat of the jar adjust if necessary.
You now have a heated hospital cage. The sick bird or young chicks who have been abandoned by their parents, can go into the tank and can choose for themselves whether they want to cuddle up to the warm jar or to move away.
It is easy to keep clean and if you have chosen the hamster box then it is very easy and light to move about.
