 This product is no longer available as of 9/12/2010

Hello,

 

Just to share a cautionary story, I have had several of these carriers but they do wear out. Last week, the large zipper opened while we were out and my parrot inside dropped 180 degrees backwards and upside down. No harm done but for those who are on a bike in traffic or have noticed some wear on these zippers, a couple large safety pins or some other reinforcement is my recommendation.

 

Kind regards,

 

Suzanne and “Errol”

I’m on the phone chatting with the customer and I hear the familiar noise of squawk in the background. No sooner does the bird quiet down, do I hear the woman who I was speaking to on the phone, cover the mouthpiece, and YELL “hey you hold it down” clearly referring to the noisy bird in the background.

I have attached some charts for you to look at. You might want to study acid, alkaline, and the combination of neutral acid alkaline foods better as you make recommendations for feeding birds. If a human (and this should apply to birds) eats a mixture of foods that are acid and alkaline, and if more alkaline foods are introduced into the mixture than acid, the combination of the foods eaten tend toward neutral and this is healthy for the body.
