But companion parrots have a unique quality unmatched by any dog: they can talk to their human companions! This revised and updated book advises on all important topics related to keeping a companion parrot, including: choosing between a young parrot an and older bird; selecting and training a talking parrot; modifying the bird's behaviour and reinforcing social behavior habits; protecting the parrot from household hazards; and, coping with occasional problems, such as screaming or feather chewing. Author Mattie Sue Athan concludes by recounting several amusing anecdotes about companion parrots and their various owners.
