Do Pet Birds Need to be Misted?

Friday October 31, 2008
Aside from being fun for most birds, a good daily mist with fresh, clean water has a variety of health benefits for your pet.

This can dry out the air, and in turn, your bird's respiratory system. To learn more about why misting your bird is so important, check out "Do Pet Birds Need to be Misted?" Then go out and buy yourself a nice new spray bottle!
