Hey, I recently adopted a 3 year old galah from an abusive family, she's very sweet, rarely bites and, unfortunately , never makes a sound (because of her last owners), BUT I can't get her to stop chewing on cords and remotes! I've researched a little on it, and I've given her heaps of chewable...

So, I'm a little bit addicted to parrot research. :22: I only get my baby boy in December, but could practically write my PhD on the Eclectus by now (slight overstatement). This was one of the BEST sites I've come across, and while I'm sure many people will already have come across her, for...

Hello Everyone! :D I have a 4 year old Sennie. We have a strong bond, but only if my hair is down... Weird right?! Whenever I tie my hair up he knows that it is me, but he would come to me attack me or sit on me all puffed up squinting at me (which looks like he is giving me evils) and...

I have recently adopted an eight year old blue & gold Macaw and wanted to get some advice about handling him. He didn't get a lot of attention at his old house but would step onto his old owners hand if he was in a good mood. He will let me stroke him through the bars of the cage at certain...
