Pet birds love to have a variety of food in their diet and giving them a combination of food daily can help keep them interested in their food and help keep them healthy. A variety of fresh foods, home-cooked food, and pellet food are all great for your pet bird. Avoid giving your pet bird foods like chocolate, avocado, rhubarb, and anything that is high in fat, grease, or salt.Â
Fresh fruit and vegetables are great for your pet bird’s diet and should be given to your pet bird everyday. They are high in nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, and help to keep your pet bird healthy. Many fresh fruits and vegetables are not only very nutritious for your pet bird, but can also be fun for your pet bird to play with after meal time is over. For example, a corn cob is great for your pet bird to chew on and helps to keep your bird entertained for hours. Offer your pet bird fresh fruits or vegetables by hand or place them in a small pet bowl, such as the Chew Proof Bowl by Super Pet, that is made to be chew proof. This bowl is great for giving your pet bird small pieces of fruit, vegetables, and also pasta and beans.Â
Your home cooked meals are also great for your pet bird and many birds will find them to be irresistible. Pet birds love to eat home-cooked meals that consist of rice, beans, pasta, and more. Try a variety of beans to find out what your pet bird likes and offer a variety of beans or pasta on a regular basis.
Another great form of food for your pet bird is pellet food. Pellet food is formulated to meet the daily diet requirements of your pet bird.  The type of pellet food you choose depends on the type of pet bird that you have. ZuPreme has a great selection of pellet food for a variety of pet birds, such as the ZuPreme Fruitblend Premium Bird Food. This tasty pellet food is fortified with several vitamins and minerals and helps to maintain your pet bird’s health.
Spring is on its way and if your dog likes to wear clothing, nothing is more fun for your dog to wear than a dog  t-shirt. Ethical Fashion Pet makes a great line of dog t-shirts that have all kinds of fun sayings and will make your dog’s spring wardrobe even more fun. These dog t-shirts are lightweight and made of cotton, which is perfect for wearing on a warm spring day, and are easy to wash in the washing machine.  Your dog can also wear these dog t-shirts on cool summer days or in air-conditioned areas if your dog gets cold easily.Â
Start preparing for the arrival of spring with a beautiful and decorative bird feeder for your home or yard. A decorative bird feeder is a great way to add some spring cheer any where you place it and it is great for attracting the birds who fly back early to your yard. To liven up your yard for spring with a bird feeder, look for bird feeders that have a unique shape or ones that are brightly colored. Here are some of my favorite bird feeders for spring:
A pet turtle can be a great pet for any child or anyone who is fond of reptiles. Turtles are easier to care for than other types of reptiles and are a lot of fun to watch. It is important to make sure that you have the proper habitat for your turtle to live a long, healthy life. Here are some essential items that you will need when setting up a terrarium for a turtle:
A great way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day this year is by sharing your love of being Irish or the day with the birds in your yard.

If your cat likes to scratch furniture or other items around your house, you know that getting your cat to stop can be a challenge. When training your cat to stop a destructive behavior, it is a good idea to use a deterrent to help reinforce good behavior.  An automated cat repellent can be very helpful when trying to get your cat to doing bad behavior, even when you are not around and without having to take the time to train your cat.
An automated cat repellent like SSSCAT Automated Cat Repellent by Multipet is ideal for helping to deter your cat from doing a bad behavior. This automatic cat repellent is so easy to use and may be set up any where in your home. As soon as it senses movement, it releases a brisk spray that startles your cat and encourages your cat to move away. This spray is safe for use around your cat and will not stain your carpet or leave a bad scent in the room. With the use of this automated cat repellent, your cat will learn quickly without training.
Another great automated cat repellent is the PetSafe Pawz Away Spray Deterrent. This automated cat repellent is also designed to give your cat a quick spray that makes your cat want to run away quickly and can sense movement up to three feet away. Place this automated cat repellent in a place that your cat likes to cause damage and your cat will learn quickly to stop that behavior without you having to get mad or having to train your cat.  The spray is non scented and safe for use around your cat.
If your cat has a bad behavior that you want to stop, an automated cat repellent is ideal for deterring your cat without the hassle of training your cat.
In the winter, your dog spends most of his or her time indoors, which may cause your dog to become restless and look for things to get into. Keeping your dog out of trouble and out of certain areas in your home is easy with a pet gate set up at strategic locations throughout your home. Pet gates are great for use with dogs during the winter because it keeps a dog confined to a particular area without having to completely limit his or her freedom. Choose a location in your home that is dog friendly and set up a pet gate at the entrance of the room. Remember that a pet gate will not keep your dog if your dog is able to jump over the gate or it is placed in an area that allows your dog to jump over it. Here are a couple of great options for you to choose:
A multiple seed tube bird feeder makes a great bird feeder for any new or established bird watcher. This type of tube bird feeder can hold a variety of bird seed at one time, which makes it ideal for attracting a variety of birds to your yard. Another benefit to placing a multiple seed tube bird feeder in your yard is that is requires less refills and less seed is wasted if the birds do not like a particular type of bird seed.
One of my favorite multiple seed bird tube feeders is the Triple Tube Wild Bird Feeder by Woodstream. This beautiful, green tube bird feeder has three individual tubes for holding up to ten and a half pounds of bird seed. It is designed to attract a wide variety of birds because they perches are adjustable. It can feed up to 24 birds at one time at the perches and other birds can feed at the seed tray. You may want to fill each tube with a different type of bird seed to see what kinds of birds you can attract to the bird feeder.
The Metal Safe Haven BirdFeeder is another triple tube bird feeder that is designed especially for attracting a variety of birds. It has a surrounding cage that birds can fly into and helps to keep squirrels from getting to the bird seed. Each tube may be filled with a different type of bird seed or a the same type of bird seed and the feeder holds about six pounds of bird seed, so it will not need to be refilled for a while. This tube bird feeder also has a seed tray to catch the fallen bird seed.
Another great multiple seed tube bird feeder is the Perky Pet Triple Tube Bird Feeder. This multiple seed tube bird feeder also has three tubes for keeping the bird seed separated. It has a sleek design and is charcoal gray for those who like a more modern bird feeder. Each tube has multiple ports for feeding a large number of birds at one time and is ideal for feeding a variety of sunflower seeds to the birds.
No matter which multiple seed tube bird feeder you choose, you are sure to a variety of birds to watch in your yard!
The economy is tough and Rachel’s Robin wants to help you save on your wild bird supplies.
If we are not the lowest priced wild bird retailer on the internet, we want to fix that and make sure you get the best price.
We were recently asked to join Petazon – the leading online price comparison website for wild bird supplies. Although at face value – it seemed like a wonderful idea – but behind the scenes .. it put a bit of pressure on us, because we had to make sure that we were the lowest out there when it came to bird feeders, suet and wild bird supplies.
The story behind Petazon is that they have accumulated product information on wild bird, animal and pet products from over 30 online retailers and designed the technology to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges. Or should we say hummingbirds to hummingbirds and nectar to nectar. The technology consists of a little bit black magic, a little bit blood, sweat and tears, and a little bit UPC and product codes.
All in all, it turns up a pretty nifty comparison of prices.
Take a look at the Ice Eliminator, which is pictured to the right top of this blog entry. Check out Petazon’s Pet and Animal price comparison to see the prices of this product across the internet.
Happy shopping and of course – happy savings! Don’t forget about Rachel’s Robins quantity discounts and free shipping on orders >$60 with coupon: freeship.
