Parrot Bonding and Overbonding

Wednesday November 21, 2007
If you already own a parrot or are looking to add one to your family, then bonding is an issue that you will want to take seriously. Bonding is the most important part of successful bird ownership and determines the quality of your relationship with your pet. While strong bonds are essential for building fulfilling relationships with our pets, it is possible for a bird to become too attached to his owner, or to overbond. For an in depth look at the ways that parrots build bonds between themselves, their flock members, and their owners, check out this informative article on Bonding and Overbonding in Parrots from QuakerParrots.com. It will help you determine the progress of your bond with your bird, and will offer insight into whether or not the relationship you have with your pet is a healthy one.
