This is our favorite book about one of our favorite birds. Sadly it's out of print, but it's so good we're going to great lengths to keep them in stock. We won't be able to do this forever, so get your copy before they're gone.
Their small size, high intelligence, low noise, and friendly personality make Poicephalus parrots wonderful pets, but they're also headstrong and can take over if you let them! This book clearly (and humorously) explains the fascinating psychology of these small parrots, and how to work with them to turn that personality to your advantage. It's also an outstanding guide to parrot care in general, including housing, diet, good sleep habits, health, toys, and socialization. And as a bonus, it's full of entertaining stories from actual owners.
