	Choosing a Mynah Bird - PetPlace.com
		In ancient Greece, the mynah was kept among the aristocracy as a pet, and in India, the mynah has been considered sacred for more than 2,000 years, and during a feast day, individual birds were carted through the city by oxen.
		Many mynah owners complain that it is difficult to find the perfect ready-built cage, since most cages are constructed with a parrot in mind and are taller than they are wide.
		Mynahs take short naps during the day but will sleep throughout the night, with heads tucked between their shoulders, facing straight ahead and eyes closed.

	PetPlace.com - Article: Choosing a Mynah Bird
		Most commonly kept as pets are the Hill mynahs – the Greater Indian Hill Mynah and the Java Hill Mynah.
		Place the cage in a room where your mynah will have the most family contact, and keep it away from drafts – near a window where there is plenty of natural light but not direct sunlight is ideal.
		Mynahs love to bathe twice a day, so you should provide a dish large enough – filled about 2 inches – on the inside of the cage or placed on the floor.

	Can Humans Live Longer?: What we can learn about anti-aging from mynah birds, fruit flies and leeches
		While some mynah birds live in the wild as long as 20 years or more, mynah birds in captivity often die early of iron storage disease, usually by the age of 10.
		Mynah birds in the wild are fruit eaters and the favorite fruit is figs.
		When starlings are fed a diet high in iron along with natural iron binders (tannins), such as found in figs, tea, and grapes (wine), the starling don't accumulate iron in their liver and none of the birds develop iron overload.

	NewPages Reviews - In the Mynah Bird's Own Words
		Though the title claims these poems are “in the mynah bird’s own words,” I was struck by the fact that we are consistently left “on the outside” of this woman’s life, the mother—catching only glimpses of her spiritual poverty and spiritual riches.
		The text is richly imbued with more than just the Mynah Bird’s words; these are also the reflections of an outside observer, the daughter, who sees more, sometimes, than she wants to see.
		In “hunger,” the Mynah Bird disappears, the gregarious woman falls silent, she seeks answers, she wants to know where the rice disappears because her children are hungry.

	Nothing's Finah Than A Mynah - Pets - Global Chic Fashion Magazine - FASHIONTRIBES.com
		Mynahs are jaunty, medium-sized birds whose flocks fly mostly within the warmer regions of Asia and Africa.
		Provide your mynahs with a nest box (for their beauty naps), perches of assorted diameters and textures (to strengthen their feet), and a few durable plastic toys (for some much-needed stimulation).
		A mynah will do a fair amount of whistling on his own without your encouragement, so restrict the sounds you make to things you wouldn't mind your mynah imitating—like words, phrases, singing and humming.
