Overall, a pretty good read. Don't agree w/a few things..."beak tapping" to get their attention. Some people's "tapping" could be harder than others and considered an aggressive move by the bird. Also, a bird "must always step up"...if my girls are feeling broody and pinnied, they should be allowed to have "off" days and not have to be little robots. Third..."passing around" a problem bird, they would rather you put it into a breeding situation. Well, many birds will not take kindly to a mate, so there is a disaster waiting to happen. And, sometimes, a bird that is difficult for you could be a dream to someone else. It's a simple fact that we are not all going to get along w/all birds, personality conflicts occur.
