questions & answers
Why can a bird fly?
Almost all birds, with a few exceptions such as ostriches and penguins, can fly. The prerequisite for flight is a light bone structure. The bones are hollow and therefore light. Feathers are unique in the animal kingdom and provide the flight surface so that birds can also glide. Birds, especially good flyers, have an aerodynamic body shape.
What legal regulations must be observed?
Individual keeping is not permitted!
- Social species must be kept socially
- All birds must be offered bathing facilities.
- The enclosures must be structured with various, springy perches of different thicknesses and orientations, whereby one third of -
- the volume must be free of structures.
- All birds must be provided with suitable sand for perching.
- The private keeping of certain bird species is subject to authorisation (wildlife licence)
Wo sind die Vögel in der Systematik eingeteilt?
Systematisch gesehen, gehören alle im Handel angebotenen Vögel, mit wenigen Ausnahmen (z.B. Wachteln, Tauben) zu den zwei grossen Ordnungen der Papageienvögel = Psittaciden (umgangssprachlich: Krummschnäbler) und der Sperlingsvögel (umgangssprachlich: Exoten).
Die Sperlingsvögel werden dann noch in fein- und starkschnäblige Arten unterteilt.
Bei den Papageienvögeln unterscheidet man zwischen den Sittichen und eigentlichen Papageien

Everything about canaries, budgerigars, zebra finches and co.
In our online shop zoo-roco.ch you will find everything you need for keeping birds. Ornamental birds have been very popular with us for over 30 years and we are one of the few specialised Swiss bird shops. We have an exquisite selection of ornamental birds in our shop - come and see us if you are thinking about keeping a bird as a pet.
Bird food - only the best for our feathered friends
No matter what type of bird you keep at home, we have the right bird food for you. You can easily order main food for finches, canaries, budgerigars, large parakeets, parrots and other species online and have it delivered to your home. It is important to us that your pet birds receive customised feed mixtures that meet their respective needs. Birds are so-called permanent feeders and spend the whole day looking for food - this behaviour should definitely be taken into account when keeping ornamental birds. We offer a unique selection of seeds, food sticks, crackers, fresh food and live food in the area of treats and supplementary food. We are always endeavouring to find new products so that there is variety in the aviary and your birds have the desired activity for foraging.
Aviaries and bird lighting - a beautiful home for birds
In our online shop you will find aviaries for keeping birds at home. It is important to us not only to comply with the legal minimum dimensions for bird cages, but also to provide a suitable aviary for the various bird species. Of course, it always depends on whether you keep your birds in an outdoor aviary or in a flat, whether the ornamental birds can enjoy free flights or whether you have even set up a bird room. However you want to keep your pet birds, we have the right aviaries. The right light is also essential for healthy pet birds. Birds need special light sources that do not flicker and contain a proportion of UV radiation.
Bird furnishings - species-appropriate, practical and varied
Whether budgerigars, large parakeets, finches, zebra finches, canaries or parrots - they all love to bathe, climb, fly and give free rein to their curiosity. With our selected products for setting up aviaries and bird cages, you will find everything an ornamental bird needs. This includes practical bowls and feeders, bird baths, a spacious bird bath, species-appropriate perches, bird ladders, sand and bedding. Why not take a look at our special adventure litter - your birds will love picking the treats out of the litter and playing with them. Please make sure that your pet bird's aviary is clean and that you allow enough time for cleaning. Keeping your birds clean includes keeping the perches clean, washing out the food bowls and cleaning the bird bath regularly. As birds in the wild rarely have a "permanent home", it is important to fulfil their basic needs when keeping them as pets.
Bird toys - lots of variety = lots of activity
Pet birds are incredibly interesting and intelligent animals. They find a solution to almost every problem and persevere to achieve their goal. This also means that birds need a lot to do. As birds in the wild are busy foraging all day long, it is important for us to offer you products that will help you to keep your pet birds occupied on a daily basis. Take a look at our exceptional selection of toys for birds and benefit from our wealth of experience and expertise. We love to redecorate aviaries. Natural materials are just as much a part of this as our activity toys. The balanced and varied mix makes all the difference for your pet birds!
Bird care & hygiene - selected for your pet birds
Whether you are looking for suitable materials for beak and claw wear or to help with moulting, you will find the right products in our online shop for bird care. A selection of minerals and herbal mixtures is also available - birds have special needs that sometimes require extra attention. In our shop for bird cage cleaning products you will find various cleaning products for the bird cage such as Pinol, cdVet diatomaceous earth, bottle brushes and many more for hygienic and thorough cleaning of the bird cage and its accessories.
Bird transport & safety nets - practical for everyday use
If you have to take your birds to the vet or clean the aviary and cannot offer them the opportunity to fly freely, bird transport boxes are essential. It is important that these transport cages have a suitable perch for the bird. The right size of catch net, the practical handling of this and the safety of your bird should also be taken into account when buying a catch net. If you have any questions about transporting birds or the right catching net, please do not hesitate to contact us.
