Customer Reviews

Excellent and Very informative for such a small book!
I personally found Katy's recommendations for the eclectus parrot to be right on. It is nice to read an "easy to read" book with so much wonderful information. Katy does a great job of clearly describing the personality characteristics of the beautiful but sometimes independent eclectus parrot. This is a book that I will give any new owner of one of my babies because it does such a great job of describing and informing about this beautiful and great companion parrot.

If you are looking at getting an eclectus this book is a must - being [an inexpensive] book, but loaded with great information - what is the loss if you decide that an eclectus isn't for you. Thanks Katy for writing such a right on book!

wonderful eclectus reference guide
This book is really good for general information on caring for an Eclectus parrot. Gives good insight into their personalities and behaviors. Book is full of beautiful pictures and directions for preparing food for the Eclectus. For anyone who loves Eclectus parrots and would like a good reference guide for owning one, this is the perfect book for you.

Concise and helpful guide for the Eclectus
This is a concise and helpful guide for all those who reside with an Eclectus parrot or hope to do so soon. Eclectus are unique in important ways other than being sexually dimorphic (males and females look different). They also do not do well on seed or pellet diets fed to many parrots. The book covers care of your bird, how to provide necessary intellectual stimulation with safe toys, information about common health problems and lots of other information critical to the well-being of your feathered friend.
