Wonderful information and divided into an orderly sequence.
Thanks for the kind words
Thank you the first time my canary Red moulting we wanted to help him so my canary will feel better thank you😊
Another great video keep them coming
I have a canary with a bright red outside, and his inner fluffy feathers are white. So now you can see white patches on him, and when those go, you can see a bright red new plumage. It’s really fun to see the different stages of it. ...he doesn’t think it’s that fun, though. :’)
And like any other canary, he loves to bathe! When he thinks we’re on the late side giving him a bath, he’ll try to get his drinking water on him. :’D
Awesome tip. Thanks for the good tips.
It's good to see you again. Have a perfect recovery :)
I hope that your health gets better soon!
So cute
Not Farmer T. New computer and to had to create a new account. Great video.

Good information. Tks. Can you pls advise me on how many times does canaries lay eggs to breed. And when is there breeding season. Do thy only breed once a year or perhaps twice....I am not sure on this . Pls advise if possible.
I can tell when my orange Belgian canary is molting because his new feathers are always yellow but he’ll turn orange later on.
Thanks for sharing your tips. I never heard of putting baby shampoo in the water before.
Is it safe if they drink it?
Hey great video! Lovely birds! My 3 canaries are 4 months old and dropping feathers. I worry about them being puffy but looking at your birds this seems natural at this time. Weve had a sudden drop in temperature from 32degrees centigrade to 20! I want to make sure they are comfy and well. I have so many questions! But i will narrow this down to one. Should i use a uv light for them when inside as they cant get outside with this weather?
I’ve got a UVB 5.0 bulb on my canaries.
i have a canary goldfinch mule thats moulting now in april is this healthy?
color feeding? Do you have a video for that?
Hi, so you sell the canaries?

Hello, I want to ask, how long canaries moult? And in my country, the daylight is 15-16 hours and in summer it will be 17-18 hours. Is it okay and my canary is moulting now?
The moult can last several months, although it's worth noting that much can depend on the age of the birds and the environment they're kept in. Any chance in the length of daylight can bring on a moult in the birds, its often referred to as a soft moult when the birds drop some of their downy feathers. Offer plenty of baths and cuttlefish so they have the minerals they need.
@@TheCanaryRoom So, is it okay if the daylight is 15-16 hours and if I will not cover him, to make daylight less?
@@TheCanaryRoom please answer
@@flowerrain2402 if he's moulting now I wouldn't cover hime, just leave him to it
Hi,
I would like to know if it's okay if I let a male Canary to mate with a female Canary, hatched together from the same father and mother?
No generally it will be unnatural and produce unhealthy chicks
My canary is not flying
When are videos coming
they're back now!
My uncle has a canary that is always at the bottom of the cage, doesn't eat, and tries to get under the female. He keeps turning his head to one side turns back to where he was facing and keeps going i dont know whats wrong with him since i dont have much experience. My uncle smokes too. Is it because of the smoke? Or is it some kind of illness/disease?
Have you tried a vet? Also, smoke kills birds.
Avocado Cake i would love to but i can't, my uncle wouldn't let me
Smoke is the cause. The smoke gets on their feathers, they preen them and it gets in their mouth and then all over their feathers even more, making them extremely sick. i’m not surprised if the bird is dead by now
Alexis Graystorm no they arn't dead they are still alive. But i found out that one of the birds are blind. I just want to snatch the bieds away and guve them the best time of their life before death
Can you please help my canary is loseing feathers on top of his head and he's going bald
Depending on where you are it could be the bird is going through a moult, more likely it has a vitamin deficiency. Ensure there's some cuttle fish and oystershell grit a little apple and greens should help too.
The Canary Room same thing to me too. I bought this vitamin medicine to help them grow feather but it didnt help and then i gave them fruits and veggies..nothing yet, i also tried a cuttlebone he didnt figure out what it was so i scrapped it in his food whats wrong? I live in kcmo is he moulting?
Shywoolf just wait for a week and the feathers will keep dropping and growing back.
Avocado Cake are you sure i waited for months and still nothing
I'm currently experiencing the same problem as Shywoolf
Sir, My Canary 2 time laying eggs but baby canary is not come out from the egg. What should I do?😢
He won't replie,go search somewhere else like on the web before it's too late
@@guillerminacabanas3662 Thanks
Would it be fine to spray birds with water?
Yes, absolutely
thats a lot of birds
so sorry
Music is too loud it would be nice if it was much much lower or completely removed. Everything else is great though.
You sound like tyson fury

*IMPORTANT WARNING FOR PET BIRD OWNERS:* The food that we normally give to the canaries (and other companion birds) consisting of a "complete, balanced and top-quality seeds mixture" bought in pet stores or malls, makes the owners trust that their pet is well fed, but it's not so: indeed the birds health is at serious risk.
The owners of canaries, parrots, cockatoos, budgies, cockatiels, etc., WE MUST PAY ATTENTION TO DOMESTIC BIRD BREEDERS AND VETS and keep in mind that although we feed them with such a typical seeds mixture, our birds are very likely in danger of suffering a painful and unexpected PREMATURE DEATH BY FATTY LIVER DISEASE. Canaries, for example, will surely die at 4 - 7 years of age of the more than 15 that they can live.
It's sad that pet birds are fated to die early and painfully in so many cases. You have to warn people to avoid it!
This deadly disease is very common in pet birds but owners usually don’t know or detect it in time. And we can’t imagine that *THE CAUSE IS IN THE FOOD ITSELF* that we provide to our birds, in which such *a typical mixture contains low-fat seeds such as canary seed together with other VERY fatty seeds such as niger, hemp or nabine and, in addition, the birds usually prefer to eat the fatty seeds* so that their REAL DIET is unbalanced by excessive fat, gradually causes the fatty infiltration of the liver and in a few years causes fatty liver hepatitis and PREMATURE DEATH to pet birds.
*Also the fruits and specially the breeding paste and its pigments and THE SUNFLOWER SEEDS ATTACK THE LIVER* if they are taken too much or for too long.
It's a cruel disease that progresses silently and, when its unexpected symptoms begin, they are easily confused with other ailments so the owners usually postpone the visit to the vet at a time already critical for the life of the bird (besides that not all vets are trained to recognize this elusive and misleading disease, even to administer lipotropic and regenerative liver protectors in curative doses, just in case it's that and not a supposed blow). It's a process of slow and asymptomatic progression, but when their visible symptoms begin (acute phase) the disease accelerates.
*SYMPTOMS OF THE ACUTE PHASE OF FATTY LIVER DISEASE:* First, overgrowth of beak and nails since months before, progressive sadness and/or pecking, hard belly (in many cases, with a dark spot with a half-moon shape on the belly, which seems a "tumor", to see it you have to wet your fingers to remove the down), falls from the sticks of the cage that seem for "errors of calculation" and then lameness (that make believe that they are by the previous falls, but both symptoms are due to that it hurts the liver), lack of flight and singing, the bird fluffs up his feathers or bends more or less slowly; Then, within a few weeks or a few days, heavy breathing with open beak, remaining lying on the floor of the cage near the food, sudden spasms from time to time (which make people believe that the bird is "epileptic" but it are twinges of pain of diseased liver), abundant greenish poop (caused by biliverdin which if it's not fasting, it means hepatic harm), then black and watery (from hepatic hemorrhages), then a strange purplish color of skin and beak, an excessive appetite and the final "improvement" of a few days (in the last phase, the already degenerated liver becomes deflated by what the bird seems to ameliorate), after which it suddenly dies among seizures (which may seem a "heart infarct" or a "stroke").
For the first symptoms the liver has already degenerated to 80% and only an urgent (and accurate) vet action can save your bird and revert the liver situation. If you simply feed your bird with the loose seeds mixture (even if you give it fresh fruits, vegetables and let it exercise, for example by letting it out of the cage at home), right now your pet's liver is degenerating, and neither you nor your bird know. *Without liver protectors, it's almost certain that your bird will die early and in many cases you won’t be able to determine its real cause.*
Hepatic lipidosis it's not only deadly by itself when the visible symptoms begin (sometimes even it does not warn at all until few moments before the death). Even before the acute phase it predisposes the bird to suffer infections, as it weakens the immune system. Obese pet birds have an higher risk of many other diseases, like arthritis, heart disease and cancer. Obesity in birds it's not so apparent but it's more dangerous than in other animals like mammals.
So in addition to giving to the birds lipotropic and detox / regenerating hepatic protectors preventively and routinely, breeders usually make their own mixtures with low fat seeds.
*PREVENTION AND/OR TREATMENT:* The time to act is NOW that your bird doesn’t show yet the visible symptoms. It's necessary to ACTIVELY PREVENT THE LIVER DEGENERATION. Fortunately it's easy to do it: *It's very advisable to substitute progressively (within some weeks, as per the instructions of the manufacturer) the mixture of loose seeds for some pellets compound food of seeds, fruits and vegetables (preferably those that already include liver protectors), because this prevents the bird from filtering and eating mostly the fatty seeds (but without insisting if the bird does not get accustomed to eating pellets because he could die for starvation within a few days).*
*And, whatever the diet, it's CRUCIAL to add to the drinking water or to the food LIPOTROPIC LIVER PROTECTORS that include carnitine and / or choline, betaine, methionine, etc., (and it's very convenient to add DETOX / REGENERATING LIVER PROTECTORS with thistle milk, boldo, artichoke extract).*
Liver protectors are not medicine but cheap food supplements manufactured by pet bird vet laboratories that remove the fat from the liver, clean it and favor its recovery. It's essential to add them to the pet birds diet to conserve their liver. It's something that breeders and vets know, but we the owners usually don't know.
It are appearing in the market compound feed for pet birds that don’t include fatty seeds and that already include several liver protectors. *But the vast majority of owners still confidently feed their birds with the typical mixture of loose seeds with little fat and other very fatty seeds... And their birds continue dying for hepatic lipidosis in a large number of cases (likely, in most cases).* Now we know that, as fatty liver disease develops from the daily food itself, it’s most likely *THE FIRST CAUSE OF DEATH OF PET BIRDS, and more so as the bird ages.*
Webs on FLD:
www.beautyofbirds.com/liverdisease.html
Liver disease is a slow, on-going progressive disease where the liver tissue is replaced with fat. When the liver disease has progressed, the bird may suddenly appear ill.
www.lovinghands.com/forms/Hepatic%20Lipidosis%20-%20Fatty%20Liver%20Disease.pdf One of the sadder diseases many avian vets see is that of hepatic lipidosis or fatty liver disease. It's sad in a number of ways since often the birds are very ill, life-threateningly so, or possibly having died suddenly. Often the owners have been unaware of the dangers of feeding their beloved pet the seeds, peanuts, or other fatty foods the bird obviously loves to eat. These are truly cases of "loving your bird to death". Any bird can fall victim to fatty liver disease.
www.researchgate.net/publication/46105643_Treating_liver_disease_in_the_avian_patient Dietary deficiencies of lipotrophic factors such as choline, biotin, and methionine may decrease the transport of lipids from the liver.
The clinical manifestations of hepatic diseases in ornamental birds are much more frequent than people could realize and in many cases they are not appreciated, progress in a silent way and when they are evident, vet action may arrive late.
Most any avian symptomatology should be considered as if it was a pathology that could be serious, and not allow the disease to develop because then it will probably be too late. We must closely investigate the symptoms, take preventive measures that don’t harm (such as giving liver and intestinal protectors according to the leaflet) ask for advice from vets, breeders, etc. and procure the most appropriate treatment RAPIDLY, but without rushing in the treatment or with the doses in such small animals. If the days go by and the bird doesn’t improve, it's necessary to continue investigating and, if necessary, change the medication in an informed and contrasted manner. Doing nothing or stopping research usually ends up with the bird dead, but acting without being sure of what is done and in what dose, it likely ends the same way. It's necessary to obtain and confirm the sufficient vet experience and have the serenity to determine in each case whether it's convenient to hasten to do and / or administer what medicine and in what dose, or if it’s better not to do and let the situation evolve without medicating for the time being, or according to the medication that has already been administered.
A limp in a bird is not always an injury caused by a blow, but the symptom of a disease of some organ (usually the liver or an intestinal disease) that needs to be discovered and treated ASAP. When in doubt, change diet to one with the lowest fat possible (only birdseed, or with other low-fat seeds such as millet, chia and vegetables) and administer lipotropic and regenerating liver protectors in curative doses immediately... although nothing could foresee a fatal outcome. There are also food supplements protectors of the intestinal mucosa and stimulants of the immune system. In doses according to the leaflets do not cause damage, it will surely save the life of your bird (if it's not too late), and will keep them with a basic wellness.
Well not all the time. My aunt had a canary that lived for 15-16 years and was eating mainly seeds.
hi. my canary is going though gout so what should i do?
Do you mean moult? If so plenty of oyster shell grit, it’s a natural process and all should be ok
Luar biasa
terima kasih
Apakah tuan penggemar Liverpool ? 😀
