Hello! I am new here so my apologies if this is in the wrong place! I made an account here because this is my first bird, and despite the hours and hours of research, watching a video vs. actually caring for the bird can never compare. My question for this particular thread is: Is it necessary...

Hi I recently joined, and I’m looking for a new bird. I’m interested in one that would make a good ESA, I’d rather not have short live species ( budgie, cockatiel) but more like Quaker, conure ( most likely, or larger. I’d rather them be free with a cage, or at most a $30 rehoming fee since my...

Hello! Recently there was a bird convention and I decided to get 2 young Budgies. Actually, I for the past few months I was torn between getting a canary or 2 budgies, but once there, I decided budgies. I just cannot resist their beautiful colors~ Anyways, My budgies are strange. I have had...

Hello All! I volunteer at our local animal shelter and we recently received a GCC there. We don't normally get any birds in but we luckily had the appropriate sized cage, I have began starting her on a pellet diet with fresh fruits and veggies daily and she absolutely loves the fresh things! She...

To no fault of her own, looking to re-home a female blue and gold Macaw. DNA sexed. She is 3 years 6 months old. Cage free bird, she will stay on her play pen unless taken off. She is used to other animals and has a pretty large vocabulary. She is not a screamer. Generally pretty quiet other...

IM looking to get a amazon but every time I do more research I cannot decide on a species. I'm being so careful not to jump into anything because I want to make sure I have the time to give the bird I get and I want to make sure I have all the knowledge! I always come back to the DYH amazon but...

Hi, I'm new here! So I live in WA, and we have parrots here called 28 parrots (or the Australian Ring neck). I am currently looking after a 28 at home, and i have been since she was about 2 weeks from leaving the nest. I was given her from someone who found her fallen out of the nest and being...

Hello, Past 2 week ago I notice that one of my budgie's nasal discharge and breathing problem. Then, I contact to local expert and they recommend doxycycline for 7 days. After that, slightly nasal discharge go away and breathing problem reduced. After That, again expert recommend...

I reccomend anyone of any bird type to check out this book; The Parrot Wizards Guide to Well Behaved Parrots. I have boughten it a month ago and it is super useful. It teaches you clicker training, target training, tricks, flight training and so much more! It is about 230 pages and is useful for...

Hello everyone! Something strange happened today and I was wondering if it’s normal that my green cheek conure Korben was regurgitating for his budgie neighbor. I know that birds regurgitating for one another is a normal thing and a sign of bondedness but is it normal (and a good thing too)...

A few months ago I got a 4 month year old female lovebird (the love of my life), and I've been heavily considering getting a Quaker. Of course they would not house together, but out of the cage, would they get along? I've been researching them big time but any tips and information you could...

Hello everyone! I have been interested in bird ownership for quite a while and have been doing a lot of research for the past few months. The problem I am having now is that I am not sure what type of bird would be best for me, there are so many that I am interested in. I have had some people...

hi! Lil’ kid me would love to take care of a canary, but I have some questions; 1. Which gender is more cuddly/ talk/sing better? 2. How much of what food do they need daily? 3. How messy are they? Can they be potty trained? 4. Do they need pairs? 5. How long can they be left alone? 6. What are...

So for those that don't play, World of Warcraft has a lot of parrot themed stuff currently because there's an underlying pirate theme. Of course I'm geeking out. The mission before this one you had to feed them biscuits to get them back home, and then this, well, feels like every day with 3...

Hello there, I hope Everyone is doing fabulous. I am interested in becoming a parrot owner ever since I can remember. Just never had the time or money to get one and quite frankly, I’m thankful for it. Two years ago I fell in love with an African Grey that was grocery shopping with his human...

Hi all, I'd like all your opinions. I'm interested in getting a Green-cheek Conure or Senegal Parrot. I have owned birds before, a Sun Conure and an African Grey who unfortunately I had to give up when I moved here (to Ireland) from South Africa. I gave them to a bird sanctuary with huge...

Hiya, I'm interested in getting an Amazon parrot. I have plenty of experience with smaller parrots but am really keen in an amazon. In particular the yellow crowned amazon. Any experiences with their birds would be very helpful

So I started building atoms again. I'm not going to detail the entire process again as I made a really descriptive post here: Pictures - Oppy's Atom! | Avian Avenue Parrot Forum Just wanted to post my attempt at the 4 ring version. Wow its tough to get it right! Tough geometry. I am currently...

My budgie, Nugget, is looking for a new home. I hate to have to rehome her, but I cannot supply her the things she needs to thrive and be happy. The reason I am looking for a new home for her is because she is very flighty and is constantly damaging blood feathers from trying to fly around in...
