Hey all I just ordered two of these books from my local bookstore :wub: I'm getting Basic Health and Disease plus Incubation and Handraising Parrots.

 

Now I have to wait for about 2 weeks to get them :rolleyes: But then I'm going to be reading like mad.

Not a lot of info directly about budgies but still some interesting info about the care of chicks which comes in handly if something goes wrong later on down the track.

Just found this thread not that it was that difficult (blonde moment again), anyway...looking for books I found this site that has all the ABK publications for probably the best prices I've seen here in Australia. They are credit card only, but the postage rate is really good.

That will take you straight to the bird section hopefully.

Just checked on postage and it's $6.50 for the first book then nothing after, I repeat nothing.

Personally I will be buying up big when the tax check comes in. ^_^

 

I get my copies of both in a couple of weeks. Basic health disease and incubation and handraising. Can't wait. Got them from the seek books site. Bit painful with the wait, but the price is the best I've seen. Also a book on lorikeets and a non ABK on conures. Don't ask, mutiple bird syndrome bid time.

The Basic Health on is around the same cost I paid. I can't remember completely what the price was for both of them. And I'm glad I got my Mutation book given to me :blink:
