Wild birds are preparing for migration or winter survival, while domestic birds need our help adapting to seasonal changes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The shorter days trigger hormonal changes that affect everything from egg production to feather growth.

Heating systems can make the air drier, and shorter days shift their natural rhythms.<\/p>\r\n<p>To keep pet birds happy through autumn:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Adjust heating gradually<\/strong> as temperatures cool<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Monitor humidity levels<\/strong> (ideally within 40 &#8211; 60%) since heating can dry out the air<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Position cages away<\/strong> from drafts or heat sources<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Maintain consistent light cycles<\/strong> to support natural rhythms<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Autumn offers wonderful seasonal foods, too! Safe vegetables like cooked sweet potato, pumpkin, and squash add variety. If your bird doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get natural sunlight, ask your avian vet about safe ways to support vitamin D levels in the darker months.<\/p>\r\n<h1>Health Watch: Signs Worth Noticing<\/h1>\r\n<p>Birds naturally slow down a bit in cooler months, but there are certain changes to watch for:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Sneezing, wheezing, or unusual sounds when breathing<\/li>\r\n<li>Lethargy, lack of appetite, or sudden changes in behaviour<\/li>\r\n<li>Abnormal molt patterns or swelling around the eyes<\/li>\r\n<li>Changes in droppings or digestive upset<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>If you notice any of these issues, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s best to consult with an avian veterinarian. Birds can hide illness, so early attention makes a big difference.<\/p>\r\n<h1>Gentle Support Options for Birds<\/h1>\r\n<p>Natural approaches can help support seasonal transitions:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Keep living spaces clean and stress-free<\/li>\r\n<li>Offer species-appropriate diets with seasonal variety<\/li>\r\n<li>Provide comfortable shelter from weather extremes<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Some bird owners also turn to gentle, homeopathic medicines as part of their care routines.
