If you are looking for a parrot behavior consultant because your parrot is biting, screaming, lunging, refusing to step up, guarding the cage, plucking, or showing fear-based behavior, an online parrot behavior consultation can help you understand what is happening and what to do next.

- We identify what may be reinforcing the behavior.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you help with parrot biting online?
Yes. Many parrot biting concerns can be addressed through an online consultation by reviewing antecedents, consequences, body language, handling history, reinforcement, and the environment.
Can you help if my parrot screams all day?
Yes. Screaming is often maintained by consequences in the environment. We look at when it happens, what happens before it, and what the bird gains or avoids through the behavior.
Do I need to force my parrot to step up?
No. The goal is to teach cooperation through positive reinforcement, not force. We look at why your parrot is refusing and rebuild trust through small, achievable steps.
Is The Parrot Project better than a consultation?
A consultation is best for immediate individualized help. The Parrot Project is better for ongoing education, live Q&A sessions, video feedback, enrichment ideas, and community support. Many people join The Parrot Project after a consultation to continue learning and receive ongoing support.
