Ewww! Seriously? Photo courtesy of Janet Hilton I’m not done. I wasn’t so much bothered by my last diatribe as I was puzzled.  And I realized that I’m not finished discussing this issue. People have been so supportive and I thank you all. When I first got into learning about aviculture I thought the welfare [...]

Get your Clawfoot Tub here…  What is a bath tub? To make things simple let me just state that it is a container. It would contain its contents. In most homes, it is used to wash yourself. Most homes have a tub with a shower spigot over it. People often forgo the tub to soak [...]

As you can imagine, Juanita has taken on a life of her own here at Parrot Nation. I like her. She’s a tad bitchy, but she does tend to stick to her knitting, and her convictions. She says things I would never dream of saying. Well, except to Janet. But then we scream at each [...]

I got back from the D.C. area after an incredible time last weekend with the Phoenix Landing Organization. A little background is called for here: I’ve known Ann Brooks since 2005 when we both attended the Natural Encounters Companion Parrot Training Class, or “Birdy Boot Camp” as I called it.  Ann’s a tad on the [...]

Revolution? What Revolution? No, I’m not talking about the Occupy Movement, although Parker and Pepper did once “Occupy” the front porch to make themselves two more with the movement: The revolution I’m talking about is what’s going on in the average parrot’s diet.
