Jan ### ⭐⭐⭐ Preach-y Parrot Keeping *by E***W on October 30, 2014* Eh, this book was not that great. I feel like her passionate plea for responsible parrot ownership took over the actual objective of informing people of how to properly take care of parrots. It was still informative, but still a bit strong on the preachy, soap-boxing stuff. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/16435470-the-parrot-companion-caring-for-parrots-macaws-budgies-cockatiels-more](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/16435470-the-parrot-companion-caring-for-parrots-macaws-budgies-cockatiels-more) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-10-01*
