Birds are endothermic animals; they maintain their constant temperature in both cold and warm environments. But they are also delicate animals, especially in the summer season, since the sun and high temperatures affect them, especially if they begin to change their plumage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is our job to help the birds in this thermoregulation mechanism and make the summer months pleasant for our pets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The birds most sensitive to heat are young, old and obese. Normally, the species that tend to be obese are the parakeets, canaries, rosella and Amazonian parrots<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among small birds, goldfinches, diamonds or coral pits are the most prone to dehydration. But, regardless of their condition or species, all birds need to have the maximum care in summer to avoid suffering from heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the summer the birds usually change the plumage (although it depends on the species to which they belong). With the molt they spend a lot of energy and need the nutrients, amino acids and vitamins essential for the growth of new feathers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, it is of vital importance to offer them in this period a complete and balanced food that satisfies their nutritional needs. In Tiendanimal we have a great variety of food for birds, of great quality and designed for each species and for each stage of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hygiene is one of the most important points to take into account for the care of birds<\/a> with the arrival of summer. The excrement, the remains of feathers and the areas of humidity caused by splashing in the water are breeding grounds for viruses and bacteria that can cause serious damage to our birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But in addition to hygiene, there are other important aspects that must be taken into account in the care of birds in summer, such as water and food. Below we explain in detail some tips and recommendations for the care of birds in summer, they will be of great help and can better withstand high temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
