ZIP AND ZOOM ARE HERE!!!

I'm so excited to share that Zip and Zoom made it to me safe and sound! I'm also excited to show you the aviary progress we are making at our home regarding the 14' aviary whose roof came crashing down over last winter. We've been at a loss of how to go about fixing it as it bent a lot of the metal walls and we ended up tossing out the previous roof. The only quote I got for a replacement roof was a carport that came in at $9k for a galvanized metal one. I just could not do that so while doing an in home consultation in Florida,...

Aviary Update

We are still waiting on the solid pitched roof to arrive for this aviary so we can have it installed, when that happens I will be moving alllll the birds back to my house while it's done because at the same time the aviary panels will be disassembled and reassembled better according to Tom's instructions. I am really hopeful this will be the solution to the warped look on some of the enclosures and large gaps that are temporarily filled at the moment. As well as the scraping door.Something new I found out is I'm Tom's first clie...

THE MOMENT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR

For those of you who have been with us for the past couple of years, you know the struggles we have had with Freeze Dried. From purchasing 1 machine that could only make 8 bags every 60 hours, to buying more machines that could do 100 bags a week (and then selling out of those 100 bags in LESS THAN 60 SECONDS), to buying even MORE machines and finding a whole new building to house them in, only for it to flood less than a month later and have most of the machines destroyed...it's been a journey.However, after a lot of trial and error, as we...

BTT - Body Language Series

Today we are going over budgie, conures and indian ringneck body language!

Outside the Flock - Watch an ekkie consult!

Meet Jackie and Kiwi! 💚Kiwi is a male Eclectus, so it will be of little surprise that there are hormonal issues present! Adding to those hormones is a very uneven relationship balance between Kiwi, Jackie and her husband.Jackie says that not only is it NOT 60/40, it's so extreme that it's more like 98/2! Jackie, despite being the one that does all of the caregiving and training, is the one who gets the 2% in that split. In this consultation we discuss coming up with an approach and plan to not only reduce the hormone triggers but to ...

New project bird update + freeze dried update!

So many updates for you guys! More to come!

Aviary UPDATE!

Hey patrons! I wanted to give you all an aviary update on the brand new set up that has been going up at my parents' house to replace my old garden set up (which I donated to Animal Wonders Montana last year).This new aviary is built by Tom at Cage Masters in Florida. I will definitely be doing a new "aviary tour" video once everything is perfectly set up (could be a while, lol).A huge thank you to all of you supporting BirdTricks as a company as well as through Project Parrots because if it weren't for you all constantly backin...

Q&A Answers June 2023

Answering the Morgan tier from the road this month!

One of my project birds is up for adoption...

Hey patrons! I am not putting this info out into the World Wide Web, just putting it here for you guys only to know but if you know of someone who would be the perfect companion to Fennel, please refer them. Check out the message below or watch the video:Hi Patrons, this is Jen (one of the Jens).I was clumsily raising a young, clingy macaw at the time that Jamie was working with Fennel as a project bird. I remember thinking how great it would be to have her problems - a bird that wanted to be left alone. (Just kidding! …kinda.)I found Fennel ...

Tasty Tuesday - Crumbles!

Instead of bread crumbs you can also use our pellets all crushed up if you know your bird likes them!

Hey patrons! We are having a flash sale on our toys at birdtrickstoys.com, over the weekend only! So go stock up!

A bittersweet post...

Watch the video for details!!Hello Patrons, Kim here.I have to say this post is bittersweet for me...On one hand I am so excited for Delta to find her forever home to call her own, but on the other hand I am going to miss her so much! When I was presented with the opportunity to work with an IRN, I thought this would be an emotionally safe species to work with for me because I just knew that an IRN was not on the list of species I had a personal interest in owning. Oh man! I was not prepared for how Delta would melt my heart and make me questio...

Meet Patti, she booked her consultation to discuss screaming and hormonal behaviors in her 4 year old Yellow Shouldered Amazon, Lucy. As you will hear in this video, Patti suffered a lot from cage guilt and with all the best intentions in the world was doing her best to provide Lucy with a fulfilling life while at the same time she was giving up a lot of h...
