A recommendation to all parrot owners...

[mattcoffs]

Hi all.
So it's no secret that i'm a new to parrots ringneck owner. And it's also no secret that it is a lot more work than i had first expected (i've had two budgies before, but that's it)

However, i've been embracing this as a new found challenge - and have been learning and training and reading and interacting like never before.

I just got this book today;

http://www.amazon.com/Parrot-Training-T ... =8-1-spell

And although i'm only up to chapter 4, i think it's a must to all parrot owners. It explains a LOT of things and also gives you valuable insight into parrots natural behaviours.
As well as why your parrot is misbehaving etc etc..

I think for the price, you can't not buy it!

Highly recommend

Thanks for the tip! I will give it a go. I am often baffled by ringneck behavior!

I have a couple of resources on parrot training and for me the most indispensable one is the Parrot Behaviour and Training #1 DVD.

I think I will also get the book that Matt has recommended too.

Maybe we should have some reviews on resources up here?
