About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1874. Excerpt: ... APPENDIX. DESCRIPTION OF THE DIAGRAMS. Plate I. is an illustration of the perfection of a small cage, without partition, for a single or pair of birds, be they foreign or otherwise. It is the "perfection of a cage" because it is made on the unique plan of maximum of comfort, and consequent happiness as regards its captive occupant, and the minimum of trouble and daily thought involved upon its keeper. It should be of japanned wire throughout, either green lined with white enamel, or black with white, being the best colours for throwing into relief the most admirable points of the bird itself--after all, the object to which the eye's attention should become attracted. If you care for your little feathered favourite, you will never allow the dimensions of his home to be less than eighteen inches long by fourteen wide, and sixteen high. That is quite small enough for health, and if proportionately larger every way the more desirable in each case in which you add new members to the number confined together; that is to say, should you keep four birds or four hundred, allow them ample room, each and all, for air and constant exercise, and err rather on the side of too unrestricted space rather than too proscribed, and your humanity will be fully repaid you in the increased beauty, and strength, and song of your aviary's denizens, besides sparing yourself trouble hereafter in the engendering of disease, or accumulation of disagreeables in the cage itself, always entailed by the opposite short-sighted policy. The diagrams, you will perceive, all illustrate the capability of the cages to be taken utterly to pieces, as shewn clearly in Plate III. The object of this is twofold. First, because it enables you constantly to alter the form, size, and arrangement of them...
