Nekton Relax for Birds
is a product designed to help alleviate stress in parrots and other birds.
Stress can have various negative effects on birds, including behavioral issues, health problems, and a reduced quality of life. Here’s how Nekton Relax can assist in managing parrot stress:
Valerie H. expressed concern,
My Ducorps Cockatoo has become very aggressive with anyone and anything that gets near me. She has started biting me when my husband gets too close.
If I’m not in the room paying attention to her, she screams.

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?
David K. reports, I have a White Faced Grey that just loves to sit in his cage and scream. I get him out several times a day and he's very…

Greetings to all you fellow crazy bird people,
Ever wonder about the guy that looked at a silkworm and said “That would make a great shirt!”

Let’s start with parrots falling under a definite no.
Kea for one. The New Zealand Alpine parrot lives in the snowy mountains and is really smart but extremely destructive.

Tammy F. is worried about her bird’s territorial issues,
Yogi, my timneh African grey parrot has taken over our bedroom dresser and nightstand drawers. He learned to open them months ago, he loves getting in there and throwing everything out.
I let him have fun with it but now when my husband goes to get into the drawers Yogi does a dive bomb to his head. He does it to me also but I’m more aware of him and know he’s coming and divert him.
He does not want anyone in “his” drawers. He gets locked in his cage for this behavior sometimes but he knows when we are going to put him in his cage and he flys off.
Linda is concerned with using essential oils around her bird,
Are essential oils safe to use around parrots? Like on the family dog. Not diffuser. Would you share your insight, please? Thank you, Linda and flock
Hi Linda
We discourage essential oils in a bird home simply because it’s oil. The oil can merge into floating particulates or aerosols that can line the nasal passage and respiratory system reducing a bird’s ability to breathe.

I’ve added a video about avian respiratory systems below.
Kori R. enquires,
Hello
I am researching parrots.
I am looking for the best way to go about purchasing one to add to our family.
Do you sell them or do you know of a reliable source where we can purchase one?
Thank you
Kori
