Sounds like a good idea to me!

I don't know how much good it is doing, but my husband hoses off the canary breeder cages' trays into the lawn. Not much bird poop there, since he uses paper . . . so there's feathers and seed in the grass. I guess that's better than having it in the driveway!

Now that he's into fish, he also dumps the aquarium water into the yard. If I didn't have so much rain water collected already, I'd have him save it in buckets so I could use it to mix fertilizler for my container plants.

When we used to have an aviary, I would use the dirty mulch from the bottom to mulch the gardens. Both the floor of the aviary and the garden had rich soil filled with earthworms. I guess the bird droppings contributed a little . . . they sure gave us a lot of it!

Hi
I used to keep birds, mostly finches, in the shadehouse
which was heavily planted mostly with orchids . Both seemed to florish in the situation Sure the way they get fertilizer in habitat . Of course you couldn't use any type of parrot in that situation lol gary
