Customer Comments "Received your book today, and was surprised how great it is! It's well worth the cost and then some, thank you!" "I ordered "Canary Tales" by Linda Hogan last year... Although I fully recommend buying the book, I find Robirda's book much more complete, easier to read with less difficulty finding information." R.C., NY "You have a way of making things easy to understand, and I love the look and feel of your book - not to mention that it is so easy to find the information I am looking for. THANK YOU!!!" "I'll start off by saying that seed sprouting did not register with me until I got my copy of 'Brats in Feathers'. My first attempt was a disaster until I read about stale seeds. That's when you told me about Herman Bros and I placed an order with them. I sprouted four teaspoons of the Herman Bros 'soak seed' mix, according to your recipe in Brats and they were ready today. The results are almost miraculous. Enrico sang from 9am until noon. I am hearing 'riffs' I didn't even know he was capable of. I also went to the organic food store and got some fresh kale and a leaf as big as my hand lasts about 1/2 hour. He absolutely loves kale. Enrico has gotten less aggressive, flies to his sprouts perch which is inches from my hand and waits for his sprouts and NOW is singing like his namesake, Don Enrico Caruso. Your book has been yellow magic marked to unrecognizability. What a wealth of information." P Cruise, SC "I really hadn't realized what a wonderful writer you were until I read the book. I mean I love your web articles... but with more room you really were able to soar." "I'm just starting on your fabulous book 'Brats In Feathers' and have learned a ton of things... I'm stunned at how much I have learned in so very few pages! I will devour the information in no time flat! Thanks again, I can't wait to get all the way through... It really is so very complete and informative!" S Mathews, PA "Since my father received your book, he has read it from front to back. My dad is 85. Five weeks ago he got his first (canary) babies, he was so thrilled... out of 4 eggs the hen laid, 3 survived. They are SO beautiful! Any day now, there should be 4 more. Without the book to follow, we don't think we would have been this lucky. There is so much detail! Also his male birds are singing nicely, your CD came in handy too." S. B., USA "It's everything I imagined it would be and I'm just thrilled with my copy! - so great to have and to hold!!! It's a very attractive book, and a nice size as well -one that I can easily tuck and have on hand to refer to and read whenever and wherever. " "...Robirda has a chock full of experience raising canaries and her website is loaded with incredibly helpful and comprehensive information about how to properly care for them. I can't tell you how many times I've gone to her website, looking for an answer to some question or problem I'm having -- and sure enough, I always find helpful information. Her book is fabulous, as well." "...It looks like a really great book. The printing is of a good quality, and the pictures reproduced extremely well. Your other book was most informative. I am sure I will learn a lot from this book." "Thank you, Robirda! You are the best, a total delight to read, a terrific story teller. I have learned so much!"

"Thank you so much for the book on canaries. That is a really nice book. I needed one, because I bought my Mom two canaries, a male and a female, we don't know anything about them. I'm so glad to have this book, I couldn't believe how much was in there. Thank you so much!" "...your advice has given us excellent assistance in keeping our canary alive! The advice of other 'experts' nearly killed him, including two vets who did NOT know about canaries, and gave us dangerously wrong advice." |

tomorrow, and especially to Jack Merkens, whose last words to me were "Promise
me you'll keep writing about those canaries! Never stop, ok? Promise!"
