Dangers to Parrots
I would like to thank you and Megan Matthews for publishing an article on the home dangers to parrots. This is such an important topic.

Letters: Looking for Spraat
Dear Parrots magazine,
Looking for Spraat
I am on a hunt for the person that took in our parrot many years ago. My mother found someone to look after him in NE London before 1996 when we wanted him to have a better life with other birds.
Letters: Ruppell’s and Rescue
Dear Parrots magazine,
Ruppell’s and Rescue
My question is to ask if you could do a specific breed study/article on Ruppell’s. Please, I would love to learn anything else I can about them. I rescued one, which I think is a male. It has taken me almost two years to gain his trust, humans had not been very nice to him in the past, so it was a slow process. I also rescued a Green-cheeked Conure, which are much more common. She had plucked her feathers, and was also terrified of people. They are both doing very well now and I have taken them out of their cages to play every day, and even take them outside on sunny days. It is amazing how attached one becomes to these feathered creatures!
Letters: How about up here?
Dear Parrots magazine,
How about up here?
I have been following the success of Think Parrots Shows, but unfortunately living just outside Newcastle it is a long way for me to go, as I live on my own and would find travelling difficult.
Letters: All Pals Now
Dear Parrots magazine,
All Pals Now
I have read many articles about adding a second or third bird and how they would get on with the original ones that we already have. Well, I have two African Greys and a large flight in a utility room, and they have lots of freedom and light, and a good environment.
Letters: Hard to convert
Dear Parrots magazine,
Hard to convert
Much has been said about pelleted diets and as I have been feeding my birds on seeds and fresh fruits for many years now, I thought I would try, but despite perseverance over several weeks, my Orange-wing and my Blue-fronted Amazons will eat a small amount, but prefer their seeds and other foods.
