Canaries are THE BEST birds to have, they are hardy yet delicate to engage with, beautiful and sing amazingly. I had canaries when I was 6, now 40 years later I have a new pair and they had babies... easiest birds... but I feed them very well, seeds, veg, lettuce. I also have zebra finches who are cute and hardy as well and 2 budgies who are definitely high maintenance...Canaries dont care about toys but mine fly around freely most days.

Thanks for sharing as I contemplate my next bird

Ah I've wanted to have a canary for a bit now, though I don't exactly have the room or time to care for one right now. I've always loved how beautiful these birds sound

[summercherie]

I always get a tall cage - it is beautiful and allows them exercise and flight!!
Ad you do not want a parrot cage as they just showed in this video
You do not want the bars to far apart... they love the egg mixtures that you can purchase from pet stores.

I have been breeding canaries since I was 10 years old I started with two pairs and never stopped I am now nearly 70 years old since then I breed some types of like red factors gibbers frills satinets Yorkshires glosters and right now in these last 25 years I’ve been breeding only lizard canaries. From a bird lover. Thanks.

Compared to parakeets, canaries are surprisingly expensive, the pet store near me sells them for 150 dollars, and petsmarts sells them for 149

Great video. It is worth adding that canaries need cleanliness not only in the cage but also in the place where they stay. However, I have a question. I see in the video that you have some canaries. Have they had any accidents or injuries, and if so, what type and what were the consequences? Thank you in advance for your answer. Once again - great movie 😍🥰😍

[howlingwolf]

sorry but mirrors are harmfull for the birdies mental health! and please do NEVER pet the wing the back or tummy of the birds only the head because touching or petting the other parts make them hormonal.

one thing I didn't realize in the beginning is that they love green food like we love ice cream

I've got 2 young canaries (male and female) placed separately (in 2 cages). I just sat with them a lot and talked to them, and now they can eat from my hand when it's outside the cage (and off my fingers), so I'm feeling good. The thing is, I now want to tame them outside the cage, but I'm not sure if I should release both of them at once (it would be their first time out). Any advice?

I'm caring for a baby house finch that's nest was attacked by a crow. This bird survived and is ok but the other baby birds
got killed. My neighbor rescued him and she works gave him to me when he was 12 days old.

This is day 33 and baby bird is doing well. At first I was feeding him every hour or two for 15 hours a day and keeping him warm and clean in a little box inside a small cage. I think he is about 33 days old today. A week ago I put him in a large budgie cage with
seeds and greens which he pecks at and eats a little of-but he still wants to be fed. So I still feed him 7-8 times day.

People on FB said I should have taken it to a bird rehabber. I know it is illegal to keep him but I am afraid he will not survive if I release him now. Can I buy a society finch from the pet store so this wild house finch can have a friend?
Another you tuber hold me that a canary is better companion for this wild hand raised house finch than a society finch.
What do you think? You say canaries are solitary birds so I am confused.

In my country, border canary is called Belgian canary (canário belga), fancy canary is Spanish canary.

I used to have a canary many years ago. He was only a look at pet always didn’t like to be handled and was scared of us when we cleaned his cage. He did sing around us though no problem. We had him for about 7 years and just found him dead in his cage. Not sure if that’s their lifespan or not? I ended up getting a Bearded Dragon shortly afterwards a way more sociable pet than a canary!

[lilsangarden]

I have a male canary that I rescued, I'm afraid he will think of me as his mate so I consider buying another bird for him but I read so many story that things can go bad when u introduced second bird. So I'm in dilemma.

Canaries are awesome pets... especially if you do not have allot of time for cleaning feeding and constant attention!
The are loving and great pets... the love to be talked to and you can slowly get their trust to let them step up and be touched.
You do not want to let any bird fly free in the house as one day for sure they will fly into a window and break their necks...
I have owned many birds large and small...
