Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 433
Book Description
From the tiny parakeet to the giant hyacinth macaw, not all parrots place the same demands on their parents. Parakeets, conures, cockatiels, lories—the parrot family consists of the most popular pet birds, each offering keepers their unique characteristics and exotic beauty as well as their specific requirements. Bird expert and author, Carol Frishmann has written a must-have book for every parrot parent-to-be, an all-in-one guide that will remain indispensable in every bird home, regardless of the size, trainability, or personality of the feathered child. More than a selection guide, Parenting a Parrot offers all the information owners need to know about feeding, caring for, and training their chosen parrot. Though both good talkers, the eclectus parrot may be quieter than the cockatoo, but he’s not nearly as cuddly. Parenting a Parrot tells owners what to expect from their parrots and how to get the most out of their avian companions. INSIDE THIS BOOK: Finding and purchasing the ideal parrot Descriptions and needs of the most popular twenty parrot species Comprehensive positive-reinforcement-based training chapter, including trick training, talking, and training a flighted bird Living with a parrot, including establishing daily routine, socializing, housing, home safety, and cleanliness The parrot’s meal plan: diets, organic and natural options, and special needs Understanding parrot behavior, enrichment strategies, and problem solving Grooming, health care, first aid, and senior care Parenting tips highlighted in sidebars in each chapter Lists of recommendations for best talkers, quietest species, trick experts, beginner’s birds, etc. Includes detailed species descriptions of these parrots: African Greys Amazons Bourke’s Parkeets Caiques Cockatiels Cockatoos Conures Eclectus Lineolated Parakeets Lories and Lorikeets Lovebirds Macaws Parakeets/Budgies Parrotlets Pionus Psittaculas Quaker Parakeets Senegals and Other Poicephalus Plus: Brotogeris, Great-Bills, Kakarikis, Rosellas, Hawk-Headed Parrots, Vasa Parrots
