Hi
I have hens who sing beautifully. They do have more of a warble tone too and softer.
I always say the bigger the cage the better..afterall they have wings to fly. A flight cage is ideal for a lone cockbird or lone hen.
Canaries like variety..a natural branch to tug at. .yes a swing too. Mirrors send my males over the edge. Canaries need different thicknesses in perches to work the muscles. Wider perches help a canary to rest their feet too. A healthy canary needs an inch thick pole to roost on..no open nest unless you are thinking of breeding.
Birds travel easily. I pop a loose cover over mine to keep them calm during travel. Canaries can tolerate up to -8 as long as the temperature difference isnt a sudden change from say 22 to -1 then you will be just fine.
A canary staying with a friend while you are away is nice for the canary..they get a change of scene too. As long as their feeding routine is the same with extra treats he or she will have a great time. My husband is quiet loving too..he loves our canaries. ..they are very calming.
