Links to Useful Parrot and Parakeet Sites

There is so much information about everything to do with parrots and parakeets on the internet.  As with many things on the internet, it can be hard to know which information is credible. Sorting through the mountain of information can be a little overwhelming, especially if you are new to parrots. We thought it would be useful if we linked you to some of our favourite parrot and parakeet sites, forums, and societies.

The Parrot Society

The Parrot Society UK aims to be the world’ premier association providing help and expert advice to members and non-members on the welfare and conservation of all parrot species.

UK Pet Food

UK Pet Food is the principal trade body representing the UK pet food industry. It has 84 member companies, which accounts for more than 90% of the UK market. It aims to be the credible voice of a responsible pet food industry.

National Council for Aviculture

One of the Foreign Bird League’s main objectives is to promote the keeping and breeding of all types of Foreign Birds while representing our interests to government, providing a larger, more influential, voice than individual birdkeepers and societies would have.
