I have repeatedly suggested to prospective breeders that they try their wings on a few inexpensive pairs of birds. I urge them to start small with prolific birds such as cockatiels or small conures and learn as the flock is built in size and variety. My advice to the beginner is to attend bird shows, join bird clubs, subscribe to bird magazines, and take advantage of the wisdom of more experienced breeders. There is a wealth of information out there to be had for only a little effort and initiative. You can be sure that the day when you have nothing left to learn will never come.
