Five Different Types of Canaries Revealed

Monday Aug 31, 2009

Did you know that there are many different types of canaries?  Some of the different ones include German Roller, American Singer, and Cinnamon.  This article will take a look at these different types of birds.

American Singer

The American Singer is by far the most popular choice to keep as a pet.  This is thanks to a combination of ease of care and wide variety of songs.  Some of these birds can be pretty aggressive, so you need to be careful when keeping more than one together. 

German Roller

German Rollers are also pretty common.  These birds have the lowest volume thanks to the fact that they sing with their beaks closed.  More so that American Singers, German Roller males can be very aggressive.  Therefore, it’s usually not a good idea to keep two males in the same cage.

Spanish Timbrado

One of the next types of canaries is the Spanish Timbrado.  These birds are available in many different colors.  They are also capable of singing a wide variety of songs.  Unlike German Rollers, they are very loud.  If it’s warm enough outdoors, you can also keep them outside.

Cinnamon

Cinnamon canaries are bred more for their color than for their song.  They are well-known for their ultra-fine feathers.  In fact, they are said to have the finest feathers of any breed.  They are commonly bred with many other breeds.

Waterslagger

One of the next types of canaries is the Waterslagger.  These birds usually have a light yellow color with dark spots.  They only provide up to medium volume when singing since they usually sing with their beaks closed.  They are also capable of making bubbling water notes that mimics running water.
