Hi It's my first post here, so please forgive me. I bought new cage, but I want to wash it with something before first use. I heard water + vinegar is safe. In what proportions? Our main parrot shop here, doesn't have like standard F10, only some F10 hand gel, I think it's a scrub. I publish a...

Hello all! I got myself a budgie 2 weeks ago from the pet store! He is around 3-4 months old and super cute! I named him Pterodactyl, Pterry for short with a silent "P" Lol. I luckily have a lot of free time right now so I am able to spend time around him. I have been trying my hardest to...

Hello, this is my fourth day having my new budgie pepper. He is a young bird and I got him from petsmart so his previous cage wasn’t that big. This morning I uncovered his cage and he was in the bottom corner which was weird cause last night he was on a perch. Anyways, later this morning he...

Hello everyone! I'm Michelle. I was born in Venezuela, but I moved to Mexico 2 years ago. Lovely and amazing country to be honest! Sadly, here in Mexico City, my boyfriend and I weren't able to find any bird breeders, so we bought our new baby from Petco. Here is Roderick, workers at Petco...

Hi, first time bird owner Dunno if I’m posting in the right thread tree but here goes. I recently brought home an 8 month old Green Cheek who was hand fed, hasn’t been sexed yet, so I’ve just been calling him he or Archer. The Aviary I got him from insisted on clipping him but I intend on...

Hi! I'm Dani. Been quite a few years since I was part of a forum, but I'm looking forward to meeting fellow parrot owners, discussing things, and learning. I've been a parrot owner since Monday October 16th, 2023, so I'm pretty new to all of this lol. I've wanted a parrot since I was a kid and...

Hi! I'm Alec, a first time bird owner. I've owned animals all my life: cats, dogs, fish, and a few hermit crabs. I've always enjoyed the company of animals. Yesterday, I met Bimini the canary. She was alone in a PetSmart when I met her, so I'm giving her time to adjust and relax. I hope I can...

Hello everyone! I will hopefully getting my parrotlet on Sunday and am starting to get read to prepare chop. I know that there are already a whole bunch of recipes out there, but, as I’m hoping to just make small batches, I would love some general guidelines on what and how much of it should be...

I saw this forum a lot when I looked up bird questions I had, but never joined until now. I have two budgies that have been with me since last year, Pufkafa and Martı. The green clearwing one in my avatar is Pufkafa and the white and blue recessive pied one is Martı.

Hello! Yesterday I bought a cockatiel from the pet store. I bought him seeds, a large cage, a type of seeds for feather health. I'm planning to buy him a cuttlefish bone, some toys and something for him to bathe. Any tips?

Hi all! First of all, have a very wonderful blessed Christmas and a safer New Year! My beautiful wife works at the Animal Welfare League here in Queensland and recently one of her reception staff informed her that she had no other choice but to give up her two parrots due to landlord issues...

Hi! I'm Hazel and I own my own flock of macaws. I am a huge bird fan and have been since I was 14. I love all my birds and spend most of my time with them whenever I'm at home. I can't wait to become part of the community!

I have had birds, mostly cockatiel/green cheek conure. I have had a cage that is shaped like a house kinda sitting around with nothing in it for around a year or two. I was going to get a new cockatiel for my one girl as a companion but I changed my mind. The cage had been meant to segregate the...

Hello Everyone! It's my first post in the forum.

Hi! I have kept birds for 10+ years. Only chickens and ducks, no parrots. I am very knowledgeable on parrots and I am adopting a lovebird soon. Someone has a Female Sex-Linked American Cinnamon White-Faced Violet Lovebird available for adoption. A person is going to see her this Friday, but if...

Hello everyone, As some might know I brought home a baby budgie yesterday. The day that went pretty well, she (or he) even ate millet out of my hand, moved around and chirped a little! However, right before it was time for her/him to sleep I noticed she/he had a red spot under her/his wings...
