About this event

  • 2 hours 30 minutes

Whether or not you had or currently have birds, this class is full of great information that makes sharing your life with a feathered companion a safe and enjoyable experience. In this class we discuss our expectations on proper caging, nutrition, and enrichment for your bird.

Did you know that a hair dryer and your frying pan have the potential to kill your bird? How about bleach, aerosols, candles, and perfumes? Our homes can be hazardous places for birds. We will discuss what is and is not safe for your parrot and provide you with the knowledge to ensure a safe haven for your bird.

Parrots are not domesticated animals like dogs and cats, thus different training methods are required to reinforce desired behaviors and discourage unwanted ones. We will walk you through the concept and application of positive reinforcement training, providing you with the knowledge and skills to handle behaviors such as biting, screaming, and feather picking.

​Want to learn how to train your bird to willingly step into a travel cage? How about voluntary nail trims- or as we like to call them, manicures? No, there's not an app for that- there's a class for that! This class will teach you all this and more.
