Hi,
I tried the 72-hour light treatment with my female Great Billed Parrot and the first night after it was done she laid another egg – please advise!

I really like reading all the information you provide about birds, and most particularly, domesticated ones.
I just read your latest that talks about the way to arrange walls of toys and the reasons for doing that.

Hi, your toys, treats, and perch setup is nice. Not overcrowded and laid out nicely. One comment though.
As a Lovebird Mom for over nine years now It baffles me to this day to see other bird parents place their bird’s open food and water dishes on the cage floor!
This is in the direct path of the bird’s droppings!

Hi, I read the recent article about chop and I’m a little concerned.
I want to make sure I’m feeding my birds the best diet possible.
I have an IRN and a conure.

You certainly need no reminder we are in the midst of a long holiday starting on Thursday (2024) the day we celebrate by shooting dangerous explosive devices 200 feet into the air and through the weekend.
Much like the Weather Channel reminds you to put a blanket in your trunk every winter, we’re here to provide a refresher for Parrot Pyrotechnic Prophylactic Preparation (that one caused a brain cramp 🙂

I want to thank you for your advice on birdie exercise.
My ringneck was getting pretty noisy. He has a full spectrum lamp, lots of toys, and his own room.
He’s new to our family. I’m afraid to try to put him back in the cage, he may have unwanted reactions. The place is safe for him and closed, and he’s still in his cage now.

Why are you making the assumption that your new parrot who came from a caged environment would have a problem with living in a caged environment in your home?
