Owl

Despite their decline in the wild, Barn Owls breed very easily in captivity and there is a large population of legitimate captive birds in the UK. This has led to a propensity of owls being offered for sale through the likes of local papers, car boot sales, etc. However, our basic advice to those who may be considering keeping an owl as a pet isDON’T. To begin with, owls donot make very good pets. Beautiful, majestic and as awe-inspiring as they may be, in captivity they can be noisy, smelly  and dirty and will need a lot of your time, care & attention. They require a regular, specialist diet, and in our opinion to be kept properly they need a large, purpose-built aviary which can be expensive to build and maintain.
