    Peeps pulled off his claw!

    Greeting y'all, I am concerned! Last January, Peeps had the middle claw on his left foot accidentally pulled off completely when it got snagged to a towel at the vet's. It took him about 4 to 5 days before he was back to normal, and no longer standing on one foot. Ever since then a tiny...

    What breed of canary am I looking for

    I once had a canary that sang so much it was very annoying. I want a canary but not the same breed as I previously had. What type should I look for? His song was beautiful but very loud & constant. I don’t want to sound ungrateful for his beautiful song but it was just too much for me. Oh...

    Does anyone know what this canary noise means?

    My canary has been making this noise for exactly a year now but only at night and mornings when he would wake up. Someone told me the noise is teeth grinding. However, he is molting right now and making this noise all day. Idk if it's because of the stress from the molt. He is eating and...
