According to Michelle Karras, professional bird behaviorist, Providing a stimulating environment is paramount to the mental well being of your companion parrot. I tell people, your bird is a three year old in a feather suit, you need to be prepared to make the same commitment that you would in bringing a foster child into your home. Essential Step Up training, the equivalent of teaching a dog to sit and stay, empowers rookies and seasoned veterans alike with handling these beautiful creatures. The laddering exercise is covered which promotes handling feathered companions while making training fun for the birds. Anyone outside aviculture assumes bird toys are mindless entertainment for large noisy pets. With the functioning intelligence level of a toddler and life expectancies of 20 to 70 years, research now confirms that play time is actually foraging time, in the birds mind. The majority of loving bird owners now know that their parrots need much more to have a happy life. Over the last 20 years, Aviculture has gone from a small exotic hobby to a vast industry. According to PIJAC (The Pet Industry Joint Advisory Council) in 1990 there were 11 million pet birds living in 5.1 million households in the US. By 1996, the number of birds had grown to 40 million while the number of homes remained fairly consistent at 5.9 million. Today the US domestic psittacine population slowly approaches 100 million. This production will help you understand your parrot better and be able to assist you in providing a happy environment for your feathered companion. Only $12.00 - Click here to buy now! |
