Seasonal Changes & Your Bird: How to Adapt Their Care the Natural Way

Like humans, birds are deeply affected by the change in seasons — from winter to summer, monsoon to winter, or the start of spring. As pet parents, it’s our responsibility to help them adapt to these changes safely and comfortably.

Temperature, humidity, light duration, and food availability all shift with the seasons — and so should our care routines. Let’s look at how to help your bird thrive during seasonal transitions.

🐦 How Seasonal Changes Affect Birds

Birds are highly sensitive to their environment. Some common seasonal effects include:

• Molting (especially during summer-spring or monsoon transitions)
• Behavioral changes – more vocal or withdrawn
• Appetite changes
• Increased stress or aggression
• Drop in immunity
• Dry skin or over-preening

Each season brings its challenges, but with the right diet and environment, you can keep your bird healthy and happy all year round.

🌸 Spring & Summer: Time to Cool Down

As temperatures rise, birds can quickly get overheated, dehydrated, or stressed. You might notice panting, open-mouth breathing, or fluffing.

✅ What You Can Do:

• Keep water fresh and cool
• Offer cooling herbs like chamomile, mint, and basil
• Avoid eating fatty seeds (like sunflower) in large amounts
• Use our VitalWings Calming Blend to reduce heat stress
• Ensure proper air circulation (but avoid direct drafts)

🌧️ Monsoon Season: Gut Health Is Key

The rainy season can make birds more vulnerable to fungal infections and digestive issues due to humidity and mold.

✅ What You Can Do:

• Use clean, dry food (avoid sprouted seeds during monsoon)
• Add oregano, rosemary, and neem – herbs with antifungal and gut-supportive properties
• Keep cages dry and well-ventilated
• Use our Advanced Herbal Blends to strengthen immunity

❄️ Winter: Keep Them Warm & Nourished

In winter, birds may fluff up more, eat more, and become less active. This is their way of conserving warmth and energy.

✅ What You Can Do:

• Offer slightly higher-energy foods like foxtail millet, safflower seeds, and herbal seed mixes
• Add warm, soft foods like cooked millet mash (served lukewarm)
• Use breeding support blends with hormone-balancing herbs like oregano and moringa
• Keep them away from cold drafts or damp areas
