Τα παραδείσια πουλιά, ανάλογα με το είδος, είτε δεν έχουν ιδιαίτερες απαιτήσεις όσον αφορά την διαμονή τους είτε θα απαιτούν συγκεκριμένες και ξεχωριστές συνθήκες. Παρόλα αυτά, όλα τα πουλιά σε όλες τις φάσεις της ζωής τους απαιτούν φροντίδα έτσι ώστε η διαμονή τους στους χώρους που έχετε επιλέξει γι’ αυτά να είναι όσο το δυνατόν πιο κοντά στο φυσικό τους περιβάλλον. 

Συλλογή από χρήσιμες πληροφορίες σχετικά με τα δαχτυλίδια, τους τύπους τους, τον χρωματισμό τους και τη κωδικοποίηση που αναγράφουν ώστε να είστε σε θέση να ταυτοποιήσετε τα πουλιά που  αγοράζετε.
