Like all living creatures, birds are also dependent on a regular supply of fluids. Especially in the hot season, the feathered creatures crave water. Bird troughs are the answer: the visually appealing and practical devices for the bird cage are an ideal way to supply budgerigars, parrots and similar with fresh water at any time.

If you keep a budgerigar, parrot or other small bird at home, high-quality food is of course of great importance. But you should also ensure that the animal always has access to fresh, clean water. There are practical devices for this purpose that you can easily attach to the bars of the bird cage.

Would you like to order some bird baths so that your feathered pet has access to water at all times? In the Maxi Zoo online shop you will find a selection of functional and easy-to-use bird baths in different coloured designs. However, as most of the material is transparent, checking the contents is no problem. Some of the drinking troughs can also be used as feed dispensers.

Cleanliness is a particularly important factor when it comes to bird baths. By cleaning them daily, you can keep them hygienically clean at all times. You will benefit from the plastic containers which are very easy to clean. Furthermore, it is important to regularly fill the trough with fresh drinking water – even if there is still some liquid left in the container. By taking such conscientious precautions, you also ensure that your bird will not suffer any adverse health effects due to hygiene deficiencies.

Naturally, wild birds also need fresh water regularly to regulate their fluid balance. Particularly in areas where there are relatively few places to access clean water, it is a good idea to place bird baths in your own garden. That way, finches, blue tits, swallows and other native birds can take regular drinking breaks in your green oasis. Some birds also use the refreshing water for a short cooling bath.

Bird baths not only offer great benefits for the birds in your neighbourhood – they also enhance the appearance of your garden. And the best thing is: you can easily build a bird bath yourself. Important: To ensure that the birdbath does not pose a danger to non-swimming birds, the curvature of the water bowl should preferably be flat. A medium-sized stone that you simply place in the watering trough can also provide a degree of safety for the drinking and bathing guests.
