Diane Johnston Said: Very basic information in book ( Feb. 5th 2010 )

I have bought this type of book before (Pets for Dummies) however, this book was very very basic. I already knew the basics about Parakeets as I've owned Parekeets for 5 years. However, I was looking for information on mating Parakeets. There was a little information about that in this book enough so I could understand if my Parakeets were trying to mate and what to do. Book suggested not to let them mate. So, I did learn something from this book. Thanks.

A. Copeland Said: Just what I needed ( Jun. 30th 2009 )

We just purchased two feathered friends so this book was a must to ensure their health and happiness.

Thank you

A. Miller Said: Good little handy info for your parakeet ( Dec. 22nd 2008 )

This is a good & easy to read book. It contains practical and helpful information. I would have liked it to be longer with a more information.
I would recommend this book.

Mavis Metcalf Said: The author, Nikki Moustaki is very knowlegable about these wonderful birds. ( Jul. 29th 2007 )

This book starts off with one of my pet peeves - giving the name American Parakeet to the sweet little Australian Budgie or Budgerigar. They are not American birds at all - although they certainly are one of many different parakeets.

The author, Nikki Moustaki is very knowlegable about these wonderful birds. She gives excellent advice on deciding if a budgie is right for your home.

Throughout the book, markings in the margins indicate interesting and helpful tips, warnings and reminders.

The chapter "Polly Want a Cracker?" has excellent advice on feeding your budgie. Of course variety is essential and Nikki gives a great list of foods to provide interest and variety.

The chapter "Come Here Often?" provides great information to help you understand common budgie behaviours, including some problem behaviours. The author also provides great taming and training advice here.

It is obvious while reading this book that Nikki Moustaki loves these little birds. She talks about her own Parakeets/Budgies as examples, telling us what they enjoy. This is a great book for beginners and even experienced budgie owners may find information that they didn't know before.
