The park will often take clutches of eggs from rare or endangered birds, enabling them to lay another clutch, thus doubling the chances of having a successful hatch
In addition to that, the park also has several breeding populations of different species, allowing them to obtain eggs naturally

it has 10 zones which are meant to bring you into the feels of different parts of the world, such as the “Amazonian Jewels,” Mysterious paupa” as well as the “Lorry Loft”, which is a revival of an attraction of the same name at the now-closed Jurong Bird Park.

The first breeding programme started in 1972, wth the aim to breed 350 species to sell to individuals and other zoos. The prices depended on the demand and rarity of the birds. In 1976, the bird park stopped the breeding of birds for sale and instead embarked on efforts to conserve rare birds, especially those of south east asia.

The new park will offer visitors behind-the-scenes tours of its Avian Health and Research Centre, Avian Nutrition Centre and Breeding and Research Centre, where they can learn about breeding programmes and the park's conservation research efforts

The group said that the new park will have a strong focus on getting visitors involved in conservation. The transitional zones between habitats will be used as educational spaces with information on birds and their behavioural patterns.

During the LJ, we aimed to learn more about the various conservation efforts at mandai bird paradise, and how the park treats the birds. While there, we encountered many different occurrences that proved our hypothesis about how mandai actually strives to ensure the welfare and conservation of the birds. There were many slides around the entire park asking visitors to not feed the birds with their own food, but instead to join the various feeding programmes happening at different times, which allows for visitors to interact with the birds while ensuring the well-being of the birds. One incident that captured both of our attentions, was during the show, Predators on Wings. Throughout the whole show, they encouraged the birds to exhibit their natural behaviours by giving verbal cues or treats, but they never once forced them. For example, one of the birds did not listen to the cues given by the staff, and instead of forcing it, they gave the bird more time to fly down, but in the end it didnt, which the staff covered for by giving extra information instead. this shows that they do not force the birds or treat them like “prisoners” and instead embrace the birds’ will
