COCKATIELS

Sheila M. Thompson, Nimrod Press 1990.

This is a book for the amateur who wishes to keep cockatiels at the purely pet level, or who wishes to go on and breed mutations – the many unusual colours now available. The author gives her birds names and manages to turn bird-keeping into a personal and fascinating hobby. Hints on management and guidance on difficulties experienced when breeding and feeding are all given.

The colour plates give guidance on colours which may be bred and the text explains basic colour breeding.

Both the dust jacket and the book are in excellent condition.
