Bird Behavior Modification Consultation

Need help with a biter, plucker, or screamer? Has your bird changed personality? Is your bird fearful, agressive, or just plain "acting strangely?" You've come to the right place.


Before you ask for a consultation, I recommend reading my book, "Your Outta Control Bird" (TFH). Many people and their birds have been helped simply by reading this book and taking the advice in it. You may want to read the book and then have a consultation, or, you may want to have a consultation first if there's a dire behavior problem happening with your bird and you need help right away.
 

I offer phone consultations with free follow-up calls to monitor progress. We will work with your bird's problems until they are resolved. I have never had a client that didn't see postive results once a plan of action was installed in the bird's daily life. Many problems are easy to solve, and some are more complex, but there is no problem too difficult.

Phone consults are $80.00. We will speak for at least an hour and I'll come up with a plan of action for you and your bird. Follow-up calls on the same issue are free for one month after the initial consult. Please email me to set up an appointment.

Please click here to pay for your phone consultation at Paypal. It will say that you are paying "Birdy Works / Better Words." This is correct. I will get back to you right away. Thanks!






I will also answer smaller questions and dilemas via email for a charge of $25.00. You can pay for that by clicking the button below. Remember, if your bird is having a serious biting, plucking, or screaming problem, you will want to have a phone consultation. I can not help you with those larger problems via email. There's a lot involved with changing a bird's behavior, and that can't be done in cyberspace. Thanks!
