Managing Parrot Hormones Like a Pro
Training Webinar
May 21st 2024 4pm – 5:15pm (approx)
At the best of times, parrot hormones are confusing, and at their worst, they can make life miserable and heartbreaking.
From plucking to screaming and even to violent aggression, understanding the hormonal basis for behavior can be…
Life-saving.
Relationship-saving.
One of the kindest things we can do for our birds
The most amazing thing is that a few little tweaks can make a WORLD of a difference in a hormonal parrot’s life – and we’ve got just that for you!
Learning about their bodies – and helping them manage hormones – is a treasured gift to little birds.
Justice Bellar, CPBT-KA is our Parrot Kindergarten behavior trainer (aka school counselor)! In this workshop, she will show you just how to address hormones in birds, creating for a happier, more peaceful home.
Field Researcher Grace Innemee will also share with us about the role hormones play in wild parrots – and how we can help channel them into good interactions at home!
Come with your questions! This is a fun, interactive workshop!

Justice Bellar, CPBT-KA
Justice Bellar, CPBT-KA, shares a life-long love for animals. Her passion for tough little ones lead her to work with shelter rescues in 2015. In 2017 she joined the team at The Gabriel Foundation, one of the world’s largest parrot sanctuary and adoption organization. In time, Justice became the Behavior and Training Coordinator, managing a parrot behavior training case load both internally, overseeing as-needed training for the sanctuary parrots on the premises, as well as post-adoption support families. She also developed and taught workshops in parrot behavior. Justice holds her avian training certification through the International Avian Certification Board (IATCB). Justice also graduated from Dr. Susan Friedman’s Professional Learning and Living with Animals course. Justice shares her home with three adopted parrots- Jimmy the yellow naped amazon, Snickers the umbrella cockatoo, and Tikka the blue and gold macaw. She spends her downtime gardening, hanging out with her trio of parrots, and playing cello – sometimes with accompaniment from her band, and sometimes with accompaniment from her birds!
