This is a guide to shipping bird via delta cargo.

This is a protocol I use to teach birds to eat new foods such as pellets or fresh produce. I often see people declare that they cannot convert a bird off an unhealthy diet because the bird throws new food, spits it out, or just "refuses" to eat it. Some of this is lack of persistence, but it can also be just a lack of knowledge of how to approach this conversion.

Eclectus care is a bit different from other parrots, but people often seem to make it out to be harder than it is.

Congrats on your new baby bird! This guide contains basic info on welcoming your baby home and getting started. I recommend reading this BEFORE your baby arrives.

As a breeder, especially one just getting started, I should probably write an entry about how you should only ever buy baby birds and how adult birds are only going to make you miserable.

I can’t do that with a straight face or even a vague sense of a clear conscience.

A recipe I cobbled together from a number of the ones I’ve tried.
