Transport of birds: It’s all about the crate
Choosing the right crate is very important. In principle, birds should be transported in a dimmed crate, as this helps calm them down and make the trip much more pleasant. The size of the crate and the attached water and food bowls must, of course, be adapted to your bird’s specific needs. In addition, the crate should allow for enough space for your bird’s tail, but not too much to ensure none of the feathers are broken or pulled out. The crate must also be made or modified according to the latest IATA guidelines. When transporting birds, some additional things must be considered. For example, you should not put all the food in the crate, as different countries have different requirements or prohibitions. Some countries only allow animals to enter with an import permit. In some other countries, it is compulsory for the pet owner to fly as a passenger on the same aircraft. In general, no anesthetic should be administered and it should be researched which birds are protected species. In case your bird is listed under protected species, you should pay special attention to the export, customs and import regulations. This is the only way to ensure an entry with no issues.
We will ensure your pet’s pleasant and relaxed journey, with no unnecessary waiting times and with a good, all-round support – because at Pet Global Delivery, we care!
