Excellent video! I learn so much from your videos. Thank you and keep up your good work.
Dave this is excellent video... Game changer and eye opener... Thanks a lot... Keep up good work... Really make difference for me...
Depends on the bird I prefer keep my micro birds indoors keep much better wehgit control
But what about kestrels??theyre quite small...
exactly! I would like to ask the same question
Great for me as an eager learner to your hobby to learn new things and reptile talk always a bonus 👍 Thankyou
Thanks for the info, but I'm willing to take my chances! Nothing's gonna scare me! I'll say this to you just like I said to someone else, its just "me and my hawk!" or "my hawk and I"! We aren't just hunting partners either! We are more than that! Also, on fact #4, you said "its all part of their daily routine" and "so that they're not just sitting there getting bored". I'm sure you know that they "buteo" species of hawks is known as the "sit and wait hawks". They are professionals at being bored, unlike parrots which can get destructive when they are bored! You could watch a wild hawk on a tree branch and it'll look up at the airplanes and look behind at a robin chirping. But...are those are really considered stimuli or could it be distractions that could be preventing the hawk from hunting?
A Falconer from Arkansas kept a Red Tailed Hawk in her bedroom on a perch that was attached by a hammock airborne on a string to catch the droppings. It all worked out just fine and the hawk was released back into the wild after the hunting season was over. However, keeping it in a bedroom for years would probably be bad for its health for sure! And a window can only let in so much sunlight during certain hours of the day!
I did all my research, the only thing I need is a good filtration system to catch the dust feathers. Once I do that, my bedroom will be an okay environment for a hawk to stay in, and to sleep in too!
Thanks for the chat, good thoughts and advice, what is a safe disinfectant to use in the mews , I keep it clean but wonder if a disinfectant on perches would be good.
Thanks for sharing.
F10 Veterinary disinfectant, have a search on amazon!
@@TerraHistoria6 thank you
What about in winter time, when is freezing cold?
Yep , definitely keep mine in the hawk house.
What about American Kestrels? They are smaller than some parrots. Is it possible to keep them at home?
I guess their poop is still more stinky and watery but are they dusty and more problematic than parrots?
Bullshit, it's not ideal but it is possible. Not everybody has the same space as you, yet their Falconry passion might burn hotter than yours. Those looking for solutions, check my channel. A small ish Falcon is definitely possible. No problem with feathers, easy picking up one here and there when it comes off.
Watch the video again and listen to what I say, hopefully you’ll be pleasantly surprised
@@TerraHistoria6 I did, while I agree with you in several points, where a bird outside could be better cared, it does not invalidate the ability of an intelligent Falconer, having his bird indoor, it was your fault to leave another larger predator a snake, with your son's kestrel in the same room. If you carry a trauma from this episode of a bird inside doors, I can understand that, but it doesn't mean all Falconers will make similar mistakes as you. Don't take away the dreams of those who share the same passion as you, it's my view. 👍
@@LaurenMartins Whoa!...You clearly have issues.
I don’t believe that man it all is what you put into it how about them Arabs they keep their birds and all the time I mean, I know it’s not great for it but it’s better than being out in 100° weather trust me
