It all boils down to whether or not the new parronts care to learn about their birds and what is safe or not for them. You can issue all the paper you want but if someone won't read it or if they think they know it all there is nothing anyone can do. You can lead a horse to ...... as the saying goes. My grey's breeder give me a folder full of information and lots of food and recipes and on line companies to get this that and the other thing from. She looked over my bird carrier and would have followed me home if I would have let her. She did call me almost immediately after I got home to make sure I and of course her baby had arrived safely. I talk to her all the time. But she has also told me that some of her new parronts do not want to remain friends after the sale. This is why she does not ship her babies, you must come get them so she can weed out the bad ones, if possible. I think it would be wonderful to have a bird/parrot buyer's guide book issued to every bird/parrot buyer. But all you can do is hope and pray they are read and the information absorbed.<br><br>Post edited by: luvparrots, at: 2009/12/28 21:49
