In this video you can see Duke my budgie and Kili my Senegal Parrot getting weighed. “Bird scales” are really over priced so I made my own. I simply bought a digital kitchen scale that can measure weights up to 11lbs in oz or grams. I configured it to grams and I built my own perch to put on it. I tare the scale to 0 with the perch already on it and then there is a good place for the birds to stand while getting weighed. Weighing your bird is important to track health and training progress. A sudden drop in weight is often a sign of illness or other health problems. Also keeping track of my bird’s weight helps me gauge the motivation I can expect during training. One more use I have for this scale is weighing out food. I’ve gotten better at eyeballing how much food to give my birds but initially I used the scale to weigh out food for the birds and track their intake.
