What this sheet is for
Track weight in grams and enrichment rotation, the two things that most affect a parrot's physical and mental health.
Who it is for
Parrot, cockatiel and larger psittacine owners.
How to use it
- Weigh in grams on scales, at the same time of day.
- Record the enrichment rotated, not just that there were toys.
- Log out-of-cage time honestly.
- Note feather condition and any plucking, with dates.
What is on the sheet
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
Questions
Why weigh in grams?
Because a bird can lose a significant proportion of its body weight before it looks any different, and by the time it does the situation is often serious. Gram scales cost very little and catch it early.
How much time out of the cage does a parrot need?
No figure is printed. It depends enormously on species and on the setup, and an avian vet or species society is the source.
