Trained Barn Owls (Male & Female) Highlights

  • Barn Owl Temperament: Barn owls are generally quiet and can be quite docile when hand-raised. They are known for their distinctive "screech" rather than a hoot. Their nocturnal nature means they are most active at dawn and dusk.
  • Diet and Feeding: In captivity, barn owls typically eat whole prey items like mice, rats, or chicks. This diet provides essential nutrients and helps maintain their digestive health. Regular feeding schedules are important.
  • Size and Lifespan: Barn owls are medium-sized owls, typically measuring around 13-16 inches in length with a wingspan of 33-37 inches. With proper care, they can live for 15-20 years in captivity.
  • Housing Requirements: Adequate housing for barn owls requires a spacious enclosure that allows for flight. They need a dry, draft-free environment with perches and a nesting box. Regular cleaning is essential for their health.
  • Health Considerations: Common health issues in owls can include parasitic infections and nutritional deficiencies if their diet is not balanced. Regular veterinary check-ups with an avian specialist are recommended.
