My other canary, Chili, has a high-pitched, long chirp, but this one has a kinda low, short chirp. It's only the first...

    Well, I always wanted a conure, buuut I wasn't a fan of pineapples... Until this lil gal found her way home. My mother rescued Kiki from a bunch of children who were trying to kill her, and I had to rush to pick her up from the schoolyard. She had flown there looking for help, got caught in a...

    New bird, new worries

    This week I'm going to pick up a two month old pearl white faced Cockatiel, independent, an absolute cutie. I think it might be female but it's still too young for me to know and I'm probably not getting a DNA test anytime soon. Either way I'm going to name it Plato since my last bird was named...

    Pictures Newbie with an adorable new Lovebird

    Although my parents bred all kinds of parrots when I was very young (a long, long time ago), I never had a bird of my own...until now! After a lot of research, I finally got my own little dinosaur on Monday- a little Lovebird. I intentionally got him (okay, I have no idea yet if he's a him. He...

    Scared about new parakeet's health!

    Hello! I'm new to these forums, and I made an account because I'm worried about my new parakeet. I have two budgies: Sock and Glove. I have had Glove for almost 2 months and we have a great bond. She's healthy, adorable, a bit cranky sometimes, but she's very loving. I got Sock a few days ago...

    Feedback for establishing good habits?

    Hi guys, We have a new 8 year old BH Pionus female. She's been with us for 5 days and so far things have been great! She is friendly, sweet, quiet, eats her Roudybush like its going out of style, loves her veggies. A breeze so far. I'm aware that it might be the "honeymoon" phase so I'm trying...

She seems happy in her cage, although she hasn't shown much interest in the toys she has in there yet. Most of the day...
