EH>HECK of an idea!  Only someone who's lived through it would know that!
I learned it from a Catholic priest who raised canaries as his hobby! He
was, at one time, president of a bird club I belonged to years ago!!!
I don't know if he invented the idea, but it sure does work great!

EH>perch and flies as hard as he can?
That's "Bird Aerobics", and you can't make him stop...that's what keeps
him in good health. Only thing you might do is make a bigger flight cage
so he can FLY instead of the stationary flapping workout.
