giggle im not personally familar with the book Parakeets for dummies but i think they have a book out there for just about everything named something like that...
i think you will find information that is here in this forum much more detailed from poster to poster and that is why i really encourage reading the sections ...general keet chat...and medical and health issues under the forums tab list above...
heck i go back ohhhhhh lets see about a thousand times now myself to REREAD a LOT of it...
make a "post it" note that reads.. dont wait till to late...educate. The information you can gleen is endless and interesting too sometimes can be also very shocking.

in fact i have to go back and review ALL my own post now to find something specific i remember...so thats gonna be no small chore.
