You and Your Pet Bird (You & Your)

Star FullStar FullStar FullStar EmptyStar Empty

Baffled by budgies? Perplexed by parrotlets? If you are thinking of keeping a bird as a pet, this book is for you. Author David Alderton guides you through the process of handling, feeding, and caring for your bird. Birds can be wonderful pets, but they are not really low-maintenance, and a sound understanding of their needs is vital to keeping your parakeet healthy. Alderton offers advice on bathing, breeding, and housing birds and presents specific information on the care and feeding of more than 80 varieties of feathered friends, ranging from the tiny melba finch to the formidable green-winged macaw.

User Reviews for You and Your Pet Bird (You & Your)

Overall Rating: Star FullStar FullStar FullStar EmptyStar Empty ( 3 reviews )
  1. Star FullStar FullStar FullStar FullStar Empty ( 1 of 1 found this review helpful ) Posted: Jul 18 2001

    I think the other reviewers have been a bit harsh. The book is a good resource. It gives general information on a variety of common birds. I think it would be particularly helpful to those new to birdkeeping. It has detailed instructions on cage selection, breeding information, and first aid. P.S. ask your vet about grit

  2. Star FullStar FullStar FullStar EmptyStar Empty ( 3 of 3 found this review helpful ) Posted: Nov 28 1999

    I liked this book because it had a lot of info but and neat bird breeds. But when I was looking for some info on a VERY common bird it wasn't there. If you just want the general info this is great but not if your'e looking for what kind of bird is right for you. And some of the info is out of date. it says you should use grit and you SHOULD NOT USE GRIT WITH YOU BIRDS!

    Color photos and discriptions of a broad range of birds and covers basic bird health, training, care, breeding and housing. Helpful for choosing a bird, but not a complete resource.
