What's a hospital cage?

Pet Bird Health FAQ
It's a small, enclosed cage that has a heater in it, and usually a humidifier. A hospital cage can be warmed up, which makes it easier for the sick bird to maintain its normally high body temperature. The humidifier helps ease respiratory problems. You can make such a cage by using a small aquarium, and placing a heating pad under it. Put a thermometer in the bottom corner where the bird will be. Put some bedding in there, along with food and water, and cover with towels. Place in a dim room.

Can I keep it in a cage?

The Raven's Aviary - Close Encounters of the Corvid Kind
The metal bars of a cage can seriously damage a bird's feathers as it grows older, and needs to stretch out its wings. If the wingfeathers keep breaking off against the bars, the bird may not learn to fly properly, or not have the plumage to fly effectively. Besides, wild birds don't belong behind bars. If you have to have a cage, make it a large one - several feet wide and more than 3 feet tall, so the bird has room to move and exercise as it grows.

Q5: Can I house more than one boa in the same cage?

FAQ
The answer here is a cautious "yes." We have successfully housed more than one boa together and have even had productive breeding occur. Rosy Boas are not cannibalistic by nature. They are thought to be "loners" in nature for the most part, although some think they may congregate in small numbers to brumate. We have found on occasion that a boa becomes stressed when too crowded, begins to feed poorly or regurgitate, then does much better when housed alone.

Q9: Can I keep more than one Kingsnake in the same cage?

FAQ
mentioned elsewhere, Kingsnakes in the wild will feed on other snakes including other Kingsnakes. Therefore, it is a risk to house two together. If this must be done, then much care should be taken to separate them during feeding time. They should be kept separate for a while after feeding since the feeding response is accompanied by hormonal responses that may keep them in the hunting mode. One should make every attempt to house Kingsnakes separately except when attempting to breed them.

Ferret FAQ - All Parts
One option is to make the cage yourself. It may be cheaper than a store-bought cage, and you can get exactly the size and configuration you want. Photos and descriptions of various types of homemade cages, as well as instructions for building one of them, are available. Of course, pet stores and catalogs have lots of cages, too. Multiple-level "cat condos" are probably the most popular store-bought cages.

What Kind Of Cage Should I Get?

Frequently Asked Questions
Cages should be made of wire mesh for ventilation. Aquariums are not recommended because they do not provide enough ventilation and will make your ferret feel isolated. Wood cages are not recommended because the wood can soak up urine and other liquids, so cleaning them is nearly impossible. If you are planning to keep your ferret caged most of the time, the cage should be minimum 2x3x2. A second or third ferret could also share that size cage.

This is a difficult answer to make. It all depends on the chin. Some are very social while others tend to be loners. If your chin has been alone a long time and you decide to add a chin you will have to watch and make sure it is going to be okay. Some chins may resent this after having been the only chin in the cage. It could become a territorial issue. (back to top)

when should you be admitted to the hospital?

Frquently Asked Questions
When vasa previa is diagnosed prenatally, it makes sense to hospitalize the mother in the third trimester (after 27-28 weeks), and deliver her by Cesarean section at about 35 weeks. She may require delivery earlier should bleeding occur. Why hospitalize the mother? In the event that the membranes should rupture and bleeding ensues, rapid delivery is possible in hospital, whereas in the time it takes the mother to arrive in hospital from home, the fetus will most likely be dead.
