Why Get a Portable Bird Stand?
Portable bird stands are a popular stand that lets you socialize your parrot more than you thought was possible.
As flock animals, parrots rely on companionship for emotional health. People who socialize their parrots daily by holding them and letting them out on bird stands report fewer behavior problems such as biting and screaming. Providing a comfortable bird stand all pet birds is important.
There are several styles of portable bird stands that work well for small and medium sized parrots. Some portable bird stands have toy hangers while others are just plain T-style bird stands. Smaller portable bird stands are easy to carry around from room to room while you work. Portable stands for larger birds are great to put on a table and are perfect for taking on trips.
Sizing
Make sure that the bird stands perches are appropriately sized for your birds feet. Your bird's feet should rest on the top half of the bird perch rather than wrap completely around it. Your parrot will be more comfortable on a properly sized bird stand.
Function
When choosing a portable bird stand, decide what function you wish the bird stand to serve. Do you want to use the bird stand for bird training purposes or are you planning on using the portable bird stand for socializing your parrot? Do you plan to take your portable bird stand on vacations? If you plan on using the portable bird stand a lot, purchase one that is easy to wash. These questions will help you narrow your portable bird stand choices down.

One to be used for portable bird training stand while the other portable bird stand can have toys and climbing perches for socializing your parrot.  A separate training bird stand certainly signals to your parrot that it is not play time. It is learning time.
