caique

Hi! Just wanted to share a little about cheese and this little quirk he has. I'm sure most of us have put bird videos from YouTube on for our little ones. As soon as I put the usual one on for cheese he falls asleep within 5 minutes. He fluffs up and loafs and dozes off and even if I wake him up...

Hello! First post!!! Long story short! I am fostering (to own) a 3 year old caique! She came from a good home; just wasn't given any attention the past year. She was considerably bitey with me at first but she's settled down a lot and has been a wonderful little companion. Very affectionate...

Hello, I am new to website. I have been reading many topics and I find very usefull informations here. I had many different birds also caiques but recently I got one more and this one seems different to me. I do not know the age of bird but its been told me 8month (right on the photos), I have...

Hello everyone ~ this is my first post but this forum has been a big help for me for months back when i got my first bird, a cockatiel! But now the time has come for me to actually make a post TT I got a 4 month old caique boy 4 days ago and i was told he eats pellets, fruits, veggies but was...

Hi everyone. I'm considering getting a small parrot, but can't decide yet. I like caiques the most, they are so cute, so playful and I also like the colors. But I'm concerned about their behavior. I've done some research and found that caiques are very nippy and can be super aggressive when...

Hello friends, I hope you're all having a great day :) I have two caique parrots named Felix and Bella, and they are both around 2 years old, give or take a little. They aren't the friendliest of caiques, I must admit. When they came to me, neither of them were babies anymore and they were in...

Hello. I have a 9 month old caique who i'm boarding for 4 days. It's the only other place near me within an hour that boards birds. They only want me to bring pellets for my caique. I asked about veggies and they said unfortunately no. Now my caique mainly eats veggies and will avoid the...

Hi everyone, I have a male white bellied caique who recently turned 3 years old and I’m starting to regret not getting another one when he was younger. He spends a lot of time out of the cage, but when he has to be in it i notice him sometimes just waiting for one of us to come and get him...

Hi, I have a caique that I'm training but not sure about what treats to use. When I trained my dog I would break a treat into 5 pieces so it would last and I can do give it to him in large period of times or a good quantity in one day. However I can't seem to find what would be good to give to...

My 5 year old female White Bellied Caique is bonded to me, and most of the time she is fine with everyone else, including my boyfriend. However, randomly she gets very aggressive towards him. She’ll be perched on my hand and he’ll just be standing near me / touches my shoulder, and she starts...

I have a 6 month old Caique. Ever since I got him he would suddenly start screaming and bite one of his legs (like thigh part) for a while before going back to being ok. He does it at least once a day and its on the same leg every time. Up until now I thought maybe it was normal behavior since...

Hello, I have a white bellied caique, 16 years old. He's been active and vocal but lately very watery poops and little feces. Seems like he strains as well when he poops. Vent as well as area around is clean. Morning poops seem well formed and urates + urine looks consistent. Feces color is...

I have a male caique that's about to pass the 2 year mark, and he started exhibiting more hormonal behavior (doing poses while moving slowly etc.). He doesn't seem to want to mate with a particular person in my family, he is more fond of me than anyone else in some aspects however the person...

Hi all! I'm new here as a junior bird owner after newly getting my beautiful five year old Caique, Appa. I bought him from the previous owner, the owner of the local bird shop, who found out she had two male Caiques so she had to sell one. I have about a month of working from home where I am...

Hello all! I posted here over 3 years ago when I first got my Caique and had concerns. He is happy and healthy and definitely a caique! He is over 3 1/2 years old now, will be 4 in June. Not sure if he is considered an adult yet? I have been waiting for the very hormonal behavior that...

Hey y'all! Wanted to pop in for some advice, things have been going well! Na'ringa has been gaining weight which is a relief because it means shes eating well! I weigh her every morning before she gets breakfast. I've had her for about a week and two days, when I got her she weighed 118 grams...

My baby is finally home!! After a week of anxious (I mean ANXIOUS) waiting and preparation, I got to take Na'ringa home yesterday evening!! I've gotten a gram scale and am monitoring her weight, have her pellets (mixed with her previous food) and chop diet, and I have her wellness exam scheduled...

Hello! So I'm in a super exciting position where I'm building a house and I'm going to make a bird room especially for my babies. I have 7 parrots total, but this thread relates to my pair of wbcs. I'm thinking about building them a habitat rather than just using a traditional cage. I want it...

Hello! First, apologies, because this will be quite a lot to read! :shy:My name is Aidan, and I was looking into getting potential advice and input from experienced bird owners! I've wanted a pet bird my entire life, and I am finally in a financial and realistic place to do so! I am getting...

Hi all, I have a 6 month male GCC who I have had for 4 months now and love dearly. We have an AMAZING bond and spend a ton of time together. He goes almost everywhere with me (including work). We have considered getting another bird as my husband would like a bird to work with and bond with...
