Your Parrot Will Talk in 30 Days. That's a pretty ambitious claim considering how different each bird is. Different in temperement. Different in raw speaking ability.I've been taking a look at a new ebook guide that claims you can do just that - teach any parrot to talk in 30 days. It shows you everything you need to know to easily train your bird to speak in 30 days or less,

The innate ability of a parrot to talk (well, mimic anyway) has to be the main reason why parrots are so popular as pets.Whenever somebody visits our home, one of the first questions they ask about our African Grey is whether he can talk. I have to tell them that, sometimes, I wish he would stop. Needless to say he is often silent when a stranger is present. He will sit there looking at them

This works well with parrots who are aggressive and badly behaved. Along with the food method below this can be used on parrots that have not had their wings clipped.You will need some sort of finger protection for this. If your parrot is very large and aggressive you may need a whole glove.Put you protected fingers near the parrot and let him bite them. If you can feel it, you need more

Release your bird in a small dimly lit room, as for the towel method.Since his wings are clipped he will flap around a little.Talk gently to your parrot as you cup your hands around him and pick him up. Again, as with the towel method (see below) be will hate being on the ground. By lifting him up in your hand, he will start to see you as his rescuer, lifting him to a safe height. Do this several

If you have an aggressive wing-clipped bird, using a towel may some you some nasty bites. Use a clean hand towel and capture your bird.This may be easier said than done but be slow and patient and enlist the aid of a helper if needed. Wrap the bird very gently in the towel. Give your parrot plenty of room to breath but not enough room to squirm and escape.Move to a very quiet room with dim

One thing parrots like is food, especially when they are hungry. This method works well with more timid birds.Less so with aggressive biting birds.Firstly remove all food from the cage the day prior to training. No longer than a day, you don't want to starve the bird, just leave him a little hungry and wondering if it is feeding time yet.Put a small amount of food in a small shallow dish. Hold

If you ask four parrot tamers about the best way to tame a parrot you will probably get four answers. Since I'm not biased and all three of the methods I'm going to discuss have their merits I'm not taking sides.The first thing I will say on the subject is what NOT to do while taming.Some “experts” still recommend that you punish your parrot in some way if he is disobedient By covering your

I am often asked which types of parrots make the best pets. This is a difficult question to answer since much depends on what you are looking for in a pet parrot.The easiest type to care for is of course the humble budgerigar or parakeet. These can be tamed like a larger parrot and can be great companions, especially for children, but they rarely talk.At the other extreme is the African Grey,

Parrots, like any other bird, spend a lot of their life in a cage. A parrot is larger than most other pet birds so it needs a correspondingly larger cage. Unless you let your parrot out of its cage regularly, he will need space to fly within the cage.Birds are very social and playful. They need attention and love. Make your parrot part of your family.Pets such as dogs need lots of attention.

Parrots can make great pets, there's no doubt about that. Although they can get anybody's attention with their beautiful plumage and their remarkable mimicry, they are unlike any other pet. It's true that they can bring a lot of pleasure to their owner but they can be more difficult than other pets to keep happy and healthy.So, is a parrot for you?Some species of parrot can live as long as 70
