Cage & Aviary Birds is the world’s only weekly newspaper for birdkeepers. Written by bird experts for bird fans, it is packed with news, advice and comment from the avicultural scene. An essential resource for members of bird clubs and societies, it also offers an unrivalled marketplace for sellers and buyers of birds and all bird-related products, both in the British Isles and around the world.
As a weekly, it’s a uniquely comprehensive and topical source of news on all subjects that affect the birdkeeper: from legal changes and government consultations, through zoo and bird-park events, scientific research and business news, to the achievements of personalities in the hobby, as well as clubs and their members.
While it’s first and foremost a newspaper, each issue also offers a wealth of practical advice and tips from the top names in the bird world, plus opinion, controversy, species and hobbyist profiles, humour and nostalgia. Bargain-hunters eagerly await their copy to scan its paid and free adverts, and it is quite simply The Bible for show reports, club news and events.
Since 1902, Cage & Aviary Birds has consistently been the first-choice publication for keen birdkeepers, whether experienced or new to the hobby.

Cage & Aviary Birds

7th May 2025 African exotics grab centre stage this week. On our cover is the zany but charismatic crested barbet, which looks as though it’s recovering from a bad night out yet is actually an intelligent, friendly and curious aviary subject! Altogether more cool is the black korhaan, a miraculously stylish bustard which – amazingly – is now in one of South Africa’s great collections and looking hot to bred; we report. News headlines are dominated by the sad but timely winding-up of the Canary Council, which has served the hobby brilliantly and now recognises that it’s time to move on. Feature treats: canary encounters with Bob Hodges and Jason Thomas; a love letter to celestial parrotlets; a top-level Bengalese bulletin; a vintage crop of reader photos; and a review of a fantastic new book on hybrids.
