New Healthblocks!
We have enhanced our range a bit to add some more color and nutrition to your pet birds life. New ingredients such as beetroot, carrot and celery will certainly be a great addition to their diet. There will also be a Detox variety.

Our packaging has also been upgraded: a new 3-pack tin; plus we changed the fastener to a hanging device which also adds to the fun element of it all.

Also available in a refill tin without the metal stick.

In the New Year we will also have Veggie Twirls -

Stop My Parrot's Screaming

Sometimes our owners would like to reduce our screaming, but for that to happen, they need to find out why we do it. That might not be as simple as it sounds though. The first thing they need to do is to prevent the screaming episodes. They can do this by making sure that all your needs is met and that your environment is one that will not add to your daily stress. Being fabulous is a hard job, but someone has to do it! They need to give you plenty of time and attention as well as some items to play with, to deal with boredom. They might also suggest getting you a friend to help curb loneliness though this might not always be such a good idea, because who wants to share all the good stuff, right? Some of us get a bit jealous of a new companion, but sometimes it's the best thing! If you scream chronically, then your owner might have to start keeping a diary of every episode along with the time and the circumstances. Hopefully keeping track of the screaming episodes will shed some light and reveal a pattern or patterns that could point to the cause(s) for such behavior. You will have to keep on trying to tell them what the problem is until they figure it out. You might be lonely or scared or just bored. They will have to look for clues and try to determine how they can help you feel better. Please don't start pulling you feathers out if they take too long! You are a pretty bird and have to stay that way. Remember, you owner will do everything they can to keep you happy and stress-free so they can be stress-free too.

Till next time
Charlie
