Parrots are sensitive creatures whose intelligence is often grossly underrated and, as a result, frequently exhibit behavior that is misunderstood by their owners. This reference guide to owning a... This description may be from another edition of this product.
To the person who wrote the review stating about the Back remedies I say that homeopatic remedies can be a valid alternative medical treatment in some cases, (it is even in people many times) and Rosemary Low states that one should be "reffered to a homeopatic vet", and not just administer different essences as one please to a sick parrot. Closing this parenthesis I think this book is an excellent reading for new parrot owners who want to learn the most on how to keep their new friend happy and healthy, for old owners who want to understand some behavioural motivation of their parrot,and lastly for breeders who sell hand fed babies and should therefore understand parrot education and much more (hopefully to the advantage of their potential buyers).
Why does my parrot...? Good advice, nice format

This is a great book with excellent basic information and advice written for the PET parrot owners. The format is especially helpful for finding the appropriate information quickly. I found the chapter on different species profiles to be the least interesting; It could have been omitted. Still, I consider this book a "must" for all first-time pet parrot owners and those who do not have a lot of time to research and read on parrot behavior.
