These are dangerous areas for most birds. In the kitchen, when cooking, things like fumes from burnt pans, or stove fires can be deadly. Also in the kitchen as well as in the bathroom, birds can easily fall or fly into a sink or a toilet and drown or become seriously ill due to detergents used. Keep your bird away from the television. If possible a bird should be placed at least 10 feet away from a television.
Televisions can have sudden loud noises, such as a gun shot or loud music.
These types of noises can make your bird nervous and he may be more apt to be nippy. Your bird will be happier and healthier in a draft free area. When you do finally find a place for your pet bird, be sure to give a few days of adjustment to the area before taking her out of her cage and socializing with her. This will help your bird adjust to the noise level, traffic, people and other pets in his new environment. Any change in your bird's routine can be the most stressful time in her life.
