Hello, I rec’d my order for the Trademark Home Collection Sunlamp.
It’s listed as a full spectrum light on your site, however, the box nor instructions say full spectrum.

Birds Unlike Humans Have No Emotional Attachment to Food
The old guy that I am, I’ve always enjoyed a steaming bowl of oatmeal on a cold morning. What makes me feel warm at the beginning of the day is the same thing that will make your tropical bird a little more balanced in their counterintuitive environment we call winter.Â

Changes in the Product Lines of Foraging Toys
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.Â
Â
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.

USPS Parrotlet Bird Food Vandalism
I (Dana S.) from Buffalo, ordered a Parrotlett seed to be delivered to my parents home; Don R., Schaumburg . The box was delivered at 1:30pm to my parents home and had been soaked in what they believe to be Kerosene.
The postman stated that they are aware of it. The Kerosene soaked through the box and soaked the bag of seed. Please help, my parents need the food ASAP for their bird who ran out.

Should this Eagle Fly Free?
Since beginning to work with raptors we’ve been posting images of all birds of prey. The image above evoked some interesting responses on our Facebook fan page today. I thought I’d share the thread on our blog.

Bird Food Pellet Conversion Made Easy
We get a lot of people who call and e-mail asking how to convert their birds to a pellet diet. The advantage of a pellet bird food diet is that pellets are considered engineered foods. In other words the bird food manufacturers decide what components are necessary for a nutritious diet and then they blend the ingredients by grinding them up and extruding them so that each individual pellet contains a precisely controlled diet.Â

Seeking Bird Food for Multiple Species of Birds
Thanks for speaking with me today.
Here is a list of my birds and the emails from Hagen.
The birds are all breeding pairs: 6 English Budgies, 6 Pacific Parrotlets, 5 Bourke’s, 4 Red Rumps, 4 Eastern Rosellas, 3 Green Cheek Conure’s, 2 White Belly Caiques, and 1 Senegal.
As I mentioned it would be easier for me to have only two diets for these birds.
Whatever help you can be would be appreciated and I look forward to working with you.

Help With Plucking African Grey Parrot
Hi everyone, Six months ago my 3 1/2 yo CAG plucked her entire chest and neck overnight.
She had never touched a feather before.
The only thing I have determined that may have caused it was a lack of sleep. (more…)
