Keith Jegen's Bird Room


Keith resides in Alberta, Canada. Keith's bird room is 12ft by 11ft.
Cages are divided into an 8 ft and 4 ft section. All cages were built by Keith.

Dividers are used during breeding season and removed for flight space after.
Notice the cages are up off the floor for easy cleaning.

If you study these pictures, you will notice food, water and baths are all attached to the outside of the cages for easy accessibility.

Keith has been breeding waterslagers since 2004. Keith's stock birds came from Mike Vallee and Pierre Nicole imports, Keith states, "I wanted to breed the best singing canary possible that is the reason I selected the Waterslager."

Keith started in 2004 with 4 males and 8 hens. He breeds one male with two hens and removes the divider to move the male back and forth.

Keith pulls the eggs and stores them in this tray filled with seed.

Fruits of labor... 5 chicks waiting for food. Keith bred 70 babies this year from 16 hens.

Nice cozy nest for these youngsters. Note Keith's record keeping binder to the left.
