The perfect seed mix

Posted by TYP on Monday, August 29, 2011, In : Parrot Advice 

Many parrot owners keep their Parrots on an all pelleted diet simply because "they are healthier than seeds"  Although this is healthy, it can be very boring for the Parrot if you do not provide anything else. Pellets are like cereal, how would you like to eat cereal ALL THE TIME?  Seeds mixes are not ALL bad because then they would just be pointless. pellets are not bad either, just dont feed them an all pelleted diet. Now im not saying that just feed seeds, heck no im saying the opposite. S...

Hi guys, 

I'm just letting you know that on saturday, Ladu (my cockatiel), flew into a glass roof and some crest feathers fell out. Now, his head has a little scab on it and also a small cut on the top of his beak. It is a small injury but he still needs some rest.Because of this I will be taking him to the avian vet.

Taming Your Parrot

Posted by B&C on Thursday, June 23, 2011, In : Taming & Training 

To tame your Bird you have to let it know that it can trust you. Try to put your and in the cage one day. Be patient it may just hop onto your hand! If not then you should try hand feeding it, either seeds or Millet (i have mentioned Millet on the Dietary needs page). Try every day and once it trusts you enough to eat from your hand, then it my step onto your hand. This means it is semi - tame! Then try this a lot and when you think it is ready take away the food and see it will step-up. This...
