Each species of bird has its own special care needs and natural wild behaviors. Parrots earn the honor of being the most challenging of pet birds. Sometimes those needs and behaviors can be confusing and frustrating for owners. Challenging parrot behavior and an unprepared owner are the most common reasons for birds to be re-homed or given to rescues.
Professional bird trainers and behaviorists specialize in teaching owners about bird care, understanding behavior, and training. With a professional you can learn about diet, housing needs, how to stop biting, changing excessive screaming patterns, and much more. Proper understanding of basic care, behavior, and training will promote a happy and healthy relationship for you and your bird.
To make it easy for you to find a trainer or behaviorist who meets your needs we have a compiled a comprehensive and geographically-specific list of bird behavior specialists. If there is not a bird trainer or behaviorist near you, most also offer phone and email consultations. Do you have great experience working with a professional bird behaviorist or trainer? Please help other bird owners by sharing your positive experience. If your trainer is not listed, please let us know, so we can update our listings and enhance the collective wisdom of RightPet!
