Before we jump into today’s subject I would like to welcome Sunshine. Sunshine was our beloved Indian Ringneck who passed on Mother’s Day 2009 at the age of 20.

Seeking a Play Stand for My Macaw Parrot

Click here for more info on this parrot play stand

We were recently interviewed for a pet magazine article with some interesting questions. We thought you’d enjoy our answers

1. Have you seen any noticeable changes in the product lines of bird foraging toys/ foraging treats in the past five years or so? Are more companies expanding into the foraging marketplace (bird companies that didn’t previously offer them)?

Researching DNA Testing for Birds

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am a researcher within the University of Glasgow and I am currently compiling a case study on one of our staff members, Dr Richard Griffiths.

Dr. Griffiths developed a PCR technique for determining the sex of birds which I see is a service your company currently offers. We are trying to trace companies which have directly used Richard’s research which is exactly as described on your website.
