I read this book after having already read “Guide to a Well-Behaved Parrot” plus some other parrot books in preparation for bringing home an eclectus. While I found the photos gorgeous, I found the information pretty basic and repetitive of what I’d already read. I think Sally Blanchard’s “Companion Parrot Handbook” is much more informative about parrot behavior and care in general.

I just received my copy of the book from the mail. My first impression was that it was quite thin. I was hoping for more information about breeding and aviary design, but the sections dealing with those topics were quite short. I was hoping to find a section wherein hybrids were thoroughly discussed and if a hybrid bird would have any deformities later on or if they would lead to infertile offspring.
Also, I was hoping to find more detailed analysis, and photographic documentation (probably pictures of different races perching side by side for comparison) of the different races.
Anyway, except for the above-mentioned items, I found the book quite useful specially for beginners like myself.

Nice book. Just not as informative as I would have liked. Beautiful pics. After reading, there still were many questions that I would have liked answered. I but say, the seller Seattle Goodwill was perfect in all ways. Check them out for other items!!!
