    How do your IRNs like to be bathed?

    Looking to introduce my baby Indian Ringneck to bathing soon! He's still young, but we still need to keep those feathers clean :p What methods do you all use? I've heard from several sources that these birds are not the biggest fans of water, but of course each one's an individual. I was...

    Bird baths

    Hello everyone, I wanted to ask if it's normal for a bird to take baths every day?. My ringneck takes baths in his water bowl sometimes more than once a day. I give him showers twice a week so I was wondering if it's normal or can it be something else? He's free of parasites as I took him to the...

    Does this look safe for my bird to play with?

    Hey guys my ringneck really seems to love this headphone case I have. I'm thinking on putting it at the bottom of his cage because he absolutely tears it down do you guys think it's ok to chew on?

While doing this he also screams sometimes at the same time but not all the time during the flapping. I give him attention everyday and his diet is consisted of vegetables/fruits and seeds...

    Indian Ringneck behavioral problem update

    How's it going guys, my ringnecks is doing better with more toys and occupation. Interestingly, it seems like he does the pacing/looking up when he sees new people. I have guest over and he shows the behavior but tends to calm down after a few minutes.

    Stargazing in parrots

    Hello, I got my Indian ringneck about 2 months ago and he has been pacing left and right and looks up at the same time. I took him to the vet and he just said it can cause feather plucking and to get him a friend to prevent that but that's too much noise for me he also said to keep him out his...

    New Ringneck has a neurological disorder?

    Hey, I'm new here and I got my Indian Ringneck about a month ago and he paces left and right and at the same time he looks up. He's eating, pooping, and chirping throughout the day. He also stops the pacing here and there. I took him to the vet and he's free from parasites but unfortunately the...

    Indian Ringneck Nail Cut

    We recently brought our Indian Ringneck home, and I don't think his nails have ever been clipped. They dug into our skin and cut it up so after lots of research we decided to trim them ourselves since just a consultation at the vet is over $100 I know it will happen to every owner at least...

He can talk, He can whistle and sometimes sing too! He is generally friendly (other than his really annoying cage aggression), He is not very cuddly...

    New Dove Mama in Need of Advice

    Hi everyone! A couple days ago, I adopted an eight year old female ringneck dove. She still seems to be a bit stressed from the move so I've been giving her space and letting her get acclimated to her new home. I want to get a second dove to be her companion, but I'm not sure when to do it. I...

    Female dancing?

    Recently Saria, my sexed female ringneck, has been doing the male mating dance and trying to regurgitate. She does it to her playstand and a lamp, which are both reflective so she can see herself. I’ve tried to bring her to a mirror but she gets scared and flies away. Is it possible Saria could...

    A Wish, A Decision, and A Very Scared Ringneck

    I wasn't sure where to post this, so I just went to the most general forum. Warning this will probably be a long post. When I was diagnosed with a form of brain cancer at the age of 14, I didn't know where my life was going to go. Even after surgery when the symptoms and the risk of dying went...

    Where do they come from?

    Well, we are thinking of adding to the flock. I'm putting my quest for a macaw on hold for now. We were discussing a smaller bird, and the IRN would be a great fit for us. Thing is, they aren't very prevalent in my area. The bird rescue Smoky Blue came from hasn't had any for a while, and that's...
