Don't waste your money,
By Ruthann Dillingham (SD United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Macaws: Everything about Purchase, Management, Housing, Feeding, Health Care, and Breeding (Paperback)
The pictures in this book are very nice, but that's it! This book is not worth reading and you would be doing your bird a great injustice if you followed any advice from this person. If you want a good book on parrots try "Parrot Training" by Bonnie Munro Doane.

Avoid this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Macaws: Everything about Purchase, Management, Housing, Feeding, Health Care, and Breeding (Paperback)
Of all the books I have read on parrot care, this is perhaps the worst. Particularly terrible is the suggested wing-feather trim, which would lead to a sedentary, unhealthy bird. Much of the advice in the book is contrary to accepted, modern practices. Do not buy it, and if you already own a copy, do the world a favor and destroy it.

This book is hazardous to your bird's health!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Macaws: Everything about Purchase, Management, Housing, Feeding, Health Care, and Breeding (Paperback)
As a veterinary technician in an avian hospital, I can tell you that this book gives poor and even dangerous advice concerning the care of macaws and other exotic birds. The avian veterinarians with whom I work have read the book and feel the same way. I would strongly discourage anyone from purchasing this book. Your local avian veterinarian would be much better suited to recommend books which give accurate information about birds and their care. Great photographs are the ONLY benefit of owning this book but hardly worth the false information printed within.
