Parrots and Color, Does Your Bird React?

This month’s article in my monthly column, ‘The Holistic Parrot’, in Parrot’s magazine, highlights how many people have reported that their parrots react to certain colors. I include a personal experience  where a female Cockatoo marched across the floor towards me because I was dressed all in white. I escaped this attack — read about how I avoided being harmed by this formidable parrot.

.

This article the also describes how parrots can recognize two-dimensional (flat) images of predators and offers tips on how to desensitize them to both colors and designs so these birds feel safer in their home environment. Help calm your parrots by understanding some common problem areas in how they react to color. Learn how to resolve them with positive behavior practices.

.

Parrots discussed include Blue & Gold macaws, a variety of Conure species, Cockatiels, Cockatoos, Quaker Parrots, and Parrotlets. But the information can be applied to all parrot species who react to, or fear certain colors.
