5 FAQs
What size cage is recommended for a Black Palm Cockatoo?
We suggest a minimum of 48" W x 36" D x 60" H, with 1" to 1.5" bar spacing and reinforced frame construction. These parrots need plenty of room to move, climb, and play.
Are standard large parrot cages strong enough for Black Palms?
Not always. Look for extra-durable cages with thicker steel bars and secure locking mechanisms. Black Palms are powerful and clever birds that test their enclosures.
Do you offer travel cages for vet visits or short trips?
Yes, when available. We stock travel carriers designed for large birds, ideal for vet visits or short-distance travel.
How often should I clean the cage?
- Spot clean daily: Replace paper liners and clean food/water dishes
- Deep clean weekly: Use bird-safe disinfectants like F10 or Poop-Off
- Inspect monthly: Check locks, hinges, and bar integrity for wear or signs of chewing
Can these cages be used for other parrots, too?
Yes. These cages are also suitable for Hyacinth Macaws, Moluccan Cockatoos, Umbrella Cockatoos, and other large exotic birds. Always ensure the internal space and bar spacing match your parrot’s specific needs.
