DOES YOUR PARROT BITE?
THEN THIS BOOK IS PERFECT FOR YOU!
It is also useful for implementing preemptive measures to avoid your bird becoming aggressive later on in life.
Parrot behavior consultant Ann Castro shows you how to carry out behavior therapy with your aggressive birds at home. Step-by-step she explains all the measures that a behavior consultant would work through together with you. This book will teach you how to resolve biting and aggression problems with your birds using clicker training.

Biting Aggression How to Solve Problem Behavior with Clicker Training The Bird School for Parrots and Other Birds edition by Ann Castro Crafts Hobbies Home eBooks
Ms. Castro is to be commended for writing a tutorial that is both a pleasant read and thought provoking. The content is helpful particularly in the realm of attempting to meet the physical and psychological needs of the animal. Like most if not all of the other self proclaimed experts, her expertise is derived from her personal interpretation of bird behavior based on her years of personal experience with various parrots. Her advice is subjective and when she strays from the obvious, that most parrots are ill suited to live in captivity and people, even with the sincerest affection and desire to provide for their maintenance, are ill equipped to provide for their needs, beyond that her advice and conclusions may sometimes be suspect. For the most part the information is very helpful and should be a primer for those intent on purchasing a companion bird. It would be wonderful if first time owners possessed her insight prior to making the purchase. I particularly agreed with her statement that the bird did not ask to be brought into the owners home. Parrots in general are extremely intelligent and adaptable but once brought into a human household, they are in an alien environment. Much of the adaptive behavior which serves them well in the wild is destructive, disruptive, annoying and occasionally threatening to unprepared owners. As Ms. Castro opines, if you buy them, you have a *long* term obligation to provide for their physical care and psychological needs,(and their needs are quite extensive).Ms. Castro's advice on the whole is very informative, she accurately points out that with birds punishment of any kind is counterproductive. In fact, much bird behavior appears counter intuitive until the owner understands the root of that behavior. It seems to me that the acceptance of the behavior on the owners part may be the first step in successful behavior avoidance. Some reviewers have criticized what they perceived as a lack of specific technique or steps to *make their bird quit biting*, those reviewers need to re-read earlier chapters, the insight is presented there but the information may not be sinking in.
Overall a valuable read particularly for novice owners and certain chapters should be a per-requisite for individuals considering the purchase of any parrot, particularly mid-sized or larger birds.

Biting Aggression How to Solve Problem Behavior with Clicker Training The Bird School for Parrots and Other Birds edition by Ann Castro Crafts Hobbies Home eBooks Reviews
Great book and fast service.
This book is grate. For people that have birds that are aggressive. It helps you step by step on how to train your bird if I can understand it anyone can lol. (. Most. Have )
The book is good in that there are some useful tips within it - but and it is a big but......
The book contains many sections that have very little or nothing to do with the actual training.
First the Introduction - Then the behavior Analysis does not begin until page 37.
Behavior Training begins at page 49 - it ends on page 90. Then there are closing remarks etc.The book lacks substance and covers very little of what the reader expects from a book titled Biting and Aggression
this book helped me a lot with a rescue conure who was abused. i suggest getting her other books on training first as it builds off of that
I purchased this book based on the advice of a very good friend and it is by far the best comprehensive clicker training book I have found
I feel this is an absolute must addition to your library for training and reference. I personally recommend this book!!
A very well-written easy to understand book- Highly recommended. The step-by-step detailed information that is presented in relation to solving challenging parrot behavior is exceptional. I do strongly recommend buying Clicker Training for Parrots and Other Birds Volume I and Volume II in conjunction with this book for a more thorough understanding. You will not be disappointed!
