Parrotcare Books
These three Parrotcare publications are invaluable for Parrot owners and breeders.
Your Pet Parrot
This book is in three sections and covers purchasing a parrot, training your parrot and parrot behavioural theraby. We feel it is an essential guide for anyone considering this aspect of parrot care. Training your parrot provides a number of useful tips and training methods to ensure your parrot becomes a part of the family and not as in some cases a problem bird. Parrot behavioural therapy gives advice on how to tackle some of the problems which do arise as your parrot develops and ensures that you will be able to cope with changes in his personality. The text contains practical information from experiences at Parrotcare over the past 27 years.
Breeding Parrots in Aviculture
We have been breeding parrots since 1974, one of the first members of the UK Parrot Society having joined in 1973. During the past 27 years we have bred from Macaws, Cockatoos, African Greys, Jardines parrots, Senegals, seven species of Lorys Conures, Eclectus, a large number of Australian parakeet species and various love birds. Breeding parrots in captivity is a booklet aimed at the novice and experienced parrot breeder alike. The text covers parrot compatibility and making up of breeding pairs, diet and accommodation.
Parrot Incubation Procedure and Hand Feeding
Our experience with artificial incubation of parrots eggs and hand reared chicks from day old have been numerous and we specialise in the sale of tame hand reared parrot babies. Incubation and hand rearing techniques is a booklet covering the type of problems that can be encountered using incubation and hand rearing techniques and will assist in setting up of an incubation and hand rearing room. Temperatures and humidity for both incubation and hand rearing. Advice on how to avoid pitfalls and improve chick survival rate. If the information contained in the booklet saves the life of one parrot chick then it will be worth its place in your bookshelf.
