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.Â
If I’m not in the room paying attention to her, she screams.

Hi,
I give my birdie plenty of bird food options in a few locations. Do I need to dump out everything each day? It seems wasteful because it’s clear there’s plenty of “good” food left. Do I just add more the next day on top?

When I took in a rescued Moluccan cockatoo he had 3 large sores and no feathers on his chest.Â
We provided him with a 4’×4’×6′ aviary cage with bird lighting, an open window to allow filtered afternoon sun for him to sit in, toys in the 1/3 to 1/2 upper part of the cage, and lots of rope and solid perches.Â

Our two rescued parakeets, who were found outdoors separately and given to a bird rescue, are not hand tame.
They enjoy being out of their flight cage and investigating in the one room I keep closed for them.
Recently they have eaten molding, on the back of an old mirror, and the other day molding around the glass on my antique china closet.
We take these little feathered angels in. They are not placed in isolation, just Gen-Pop.
Their quality of life is second to none.
The freshest commercially prepared bird foods. (more…)
Hi. I have a 10-year-old Cockatiel that has been very ill.
I have always offered a variety of food both fresh human food & bird pellets.
When he became ill he just would barely eat anything at all.
They were separated shortly thereafter Most of our birds are rescues - we did help hatch 3 of the 8 rescued budgies Note brief cameo of me with beard tucked…

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

As a pet bird companion, one of the most important things you should know is how often to feed and water your feathered friend.
Proper nutrition and hydration not only ensure your bird’s health and happiness but also help them to live longer.

I want to thank you for your advice on birdie exercise. Â
My ringneck was getting pretty noisy. He has a full spectrum lamp, lots of toys, and his own room.Â
