Rosella cage and daily life
Rosellas need horizontal flight space: a minimum of about 36 x 24 x 36 inches (90 x 60 x 90 cm) for one, larger if you can. Bar spacing around 1/2-5/8 inch. They are active flyers and do best in an aviary with natural branches and a shallow bath. Keep away from kitchens (Teflon/PTFE fumes are lethal).
Common mistakes with Rosellas
Common errors are an all-seed diet causing fatty liver, keeping them in a small cage with no flight (leading to stress and feather-plucking), and expecting a tame, handleable pet when rosellas are naturally hands-off. Nonstick-fume exposure and toxic foods are the acute killers.
