Boarding Multiple Birds: A Guide for Multi-Bird Households

Boarding Multiple Birds

If you have more than one bird, boarding logistics can get a bit more complex. Here's everything you need to know about boarding multiple birds at BST.

How Pricing Works

Each bird is quoted individually based on its size category:

Size	Per Day	Per Week	Per Month
Small	$14.75	$90	$360
Medium	$19.75	$120	$480
Large	$24.75	$150	$600
XL	$29.75	$180	$720

The quotation calculator automatically applies the best rate combination for each bird's stay.

Cage Arrangements

• Bonded pairs that live together at home can share a cage at BST
• Separate cages are available for birds that need their own space
• Cage rental is available if you don't want to transport multiple cages
• Let BST know your cage arrangement preferences when booking

Out-of-Cage Time

• Birds from the same household are typically given out-of-cage time together
• This is especially important for bonded pairs who may become stressed if separated
• If your birds don't get along, separate out-of-cage times can be arranged
• All interactions are supervised by experienced BST staff

Packing for Multiple Birds

• Label food separately for each bird, especially if they have different diets
• Identify each bird — if you have multiple birds of the same species, use leg bands or descriptions
• Share any social dynamics — let BST know which birds get along and which need separation
• Medication — clearly label which medication belongs to which bird

Daily Updates

All your birds will be featured in your daily updates. You'll see each bird individually during their out-of-cage time, ensuring you know every member of your flock is happy and healthy.

Transport Tips

• Use separate carriers for birds that don't share a cage
• Secure all carriers properly in the vehicle
• Consider the BST Avian Shuttle for large flocks — professional handlers can manage multiple birds safely
