I know I have been down this road before, but I need some tips again please. Lada (female eclectus) is again getting broody. She laid an egg again yesterday. Last time was a few months ago... so not good in terms of span. The egg laying is not the problem though. She is and has been for quite...

(Bambi reference to politely describe animals in spring time with a need to breed) Our gcc is constantly attempting to mate with my husband's hand or neck/collar bone. It was funny at first. But i am getting concerned because it is non-stop. Never with me. I don't let that kind of behaviour...

Our avian vet insisted that we tried the supplement "RELEAVES" for our lovebird hen who's on the implant and showing hormonal behavior after 9 months of having it inserted (it used to stop working in a much shorter period of time). We're not doing the whole 3 days of lights on, she suggested I...

My tiel is scared of toys. He gets as far away from them as possible. I've started making very small toys. A string with a cherio and a couple one inch pieces of paper or cardboard on it for instance. He lowers his head to the perch and turns his head sideways with the top of his head...
