Product Description
Product Description
A companion parrot is to a bird lover what a favorite lapdog is to its owner -- a friend through thick and thin. This book offers a wealth of advice on such topics as choosing between a young parrot and an older bird, selecting and training a talking parrot, modifying some of a companion parrot's behavior traits and periodically reinforcing behavior changes, keeping the bird groomed and away from household safety hazards, and virtually all other aspects of care. The author, a respected parrot expert, discusses ways of coping with occasional problems that include excessive screaming and feather chewing, and describes general differences in behavior among various companion birds - budgies, lovebirds, cockatiels, macaws, conures, lories and others.

This review is from: Guide to Companion Parrot Behavior (Paperback)
This book is wonderful for a first time parrot buyer. Suggest that you buy this book before buying a parrot as a guide to choosing the right type of parrot. The book is also filled with information that can be used after the purchase of the parrot. The largest part of the book is centered on different types of parrots and their personalities, behaviors ect. An excellent reference! Enjoyed leaning from it!

Informative,
By "darkmistress75" (CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Guide to Companion Parrot Behavior (Paperback)
It is a great resource for people who havn't bought a parrot yet but want to and current parrot owners. The book has a lot of information to offer to parrot owners and people who are considering on buying a parrot. I feel that if parrot owners took the time to read this book they would benefit greatly from it and that their parrots will become happy ones, if not happier.
