Behavior & Training

Parrot behavior can often be complex and mis-understood. More often than not, the answer to correcting a behavioral problem is to have your parrot learn to trust you. Granted you need to first determine if your bird’s behavior issues are different than normal since parrots are amazing at masking illness. You can help ease boredom behavior by providing a safe, enriching environment and  as many foraging opportunities as possible. Training your companion will keep him entertained and active and out of trouble.
