Editorial review:
piLoaded with color photos, tip boxes, and check lists, The Simple Guide to Bird Care Training provides the tools needed to select the right bird, welcome it into a home, and then keep it happy and healthy. With chapters on feeding, housing, health care, and training, this handbook covers all there is to know about caring for an avian companion. The book also includes helpful tips and expert solutions to the most common situations faced by owners - from problem behaviors, such as feather picking and biting, to training issues, such as wing clipping and talking. Most importantly, the book uses compassion and humor to help owners transform a new pet into a cherished and well-adjusted member of the family./ibrbr

Reviews from people who have bought this book:

4 stars. Awesome book!
I absolutely love this book. I work with parrots on a full time basis in an all-bird store. This book is right on target for beginnner bird owners. What I like about it is that it is comprehensive. It breaks down the different types of birds and discusses their personality traits, size, life span, talking ability (not a definite in any bird, but always a plus, and every bird is different), whether a bird is ok for an apartment or a house, and of course, everything from health and grooming to training. I have not found a book yet that does as much comparing between the species and makes it easy for beginner birders. A must have for all beginners!!!

5 stars. Good Basic Info on Bird Selection, Care, and Training
This book is an up to date book providing a general overview of bird care and training. This book is good for the beginner who is considering a bird or has just acquired their first bird. It is reasonably priced and packed with lots of information. You'll need to move on to more specialized books about bird care and training after reading this, but this book is an excellent start!

5 stars. Great advice in an easy to use format.
This is a great book. It has easy to read and understand information on the most popular pet birds. There are 19 species covered individually. It gives step by step advice on how to set up and mantain a happy home for you and your bird. It also contains color photographs on almost every page.
