parrots

Hiya Everyone! I'm wondering what parrot would suit me best. I've made a post already in Lovebird Lane, explaining about my new found love for birds after hand rearing and caring for a black bird who stole my heart. He was my best friend, and baby all in one. I loved him so much..Sadly he passed...

Hello! I'm new to this forum so I hope I'm posting this in the right place, but I have two ringnecks parakeets, a white and a yellow one, in need of a good home. I adopted then from an animal shelter that was going to euthanize them if no one took them, and really only took them to keep them...

Had a really funny dream last night. Dreamt I had to take Charlie (Society Finch) to the vet. Nothing was particularly wrong with him. In fact I remember thinking to myself, ugh... this vet is not doing anything useful and its gonna cost me a fortune. That's not the funny part... In fact, that...

I'm so excited it's here! The tea infuser on it is huge too. I can't wait to use it.

I own 2 kakarikis, female and male (female shown in my profile picture!) but my male seems to have very ugly, to say feathers. He was like this ever since I purchased him and I think he might be moulting. They are about 1 year old do kakarikis moult when they are 1 year old or if not is there...

Hey guys, I'm hoping to find someone in Vancouver WA or Portland, OR (can drive 5-10 hours out if needed) areas to board my birds. I have an 8 month Catalina Macaw and a four year old Sulphur Too. I am relocating with my family of birds and two dogs, I am hoping I won't have to board them here...

Just introducing myself, my name is Heather, and I have parrots for 5 years. When I started, I bred budgies as a hobby for two years, then I decided I wanted to venture into larger parrots, so I got a cockatiel. Buddy was a female pied cockatiel, 3 months later I got another cockatiel, a...

Ok, I am about to ask a very dumb question so prepare yourselves... I assume most if not ALL parrots get very grumpy late at night and potentially aggressive (well, lets just continue to call it grumpy) as a result. I'm probably going to get a lot of negative comments for this, but it was...

Hi, thought id share my bird videos with everyone. Thanks for watching Birds: Birds - YouTube

I've only had my quaker for about 2 weeks now and I'm worrying about everything. I just wanted to know other parrot owners experiences on things that are and aren't normal for Quakers. I guess it would just be nice to have some concerning behaviors/signs that I should look out for. Any advice on...

Earlier today, when my quaker Eddie and I were taking a car ride as we usually do when I get home, he began to bob his head up and down with his mouth open. It looked to me like he was trying to regurgitate something. I did some research and I decided that was it, since he quit doing it after a...

After having this bird for only a little over a week, I've realized how much of a paranoid bird-mom I'm being. I'm throwing out Teflon pans, checking every product in my house to make sure its safe and just being super paranoid in general. Am I being too paranoid here or not? Everyone I talk to...

My name is Trinity, my love for birds began in Hawaii where I grew up, there was a guy who would walk the beach with his exotic birds and take photos of tourists. They were breath taking and so interactive. As I aged and relocated I forgot about the pleasure of being around birds. I ended up at...

Hi， everybody I'm a super rookie mom about the parrot. My parrot will arrive at my home next week. I have prepared the perch, cage, chewing toy and food for it. It's my first time to get along with the parrot, so I have several questions: 1.when the parrot keeps moving up and down, what's the...

Howdy all, Looking to get some input from those of you that decided to take the plunge (as I am getting ready to do) and get into birds having no prior experience. In other words, I am looking to hear back from those of you that never owned a bird growing up, no one in your family has ever...

I am changing jaspers cage twice a day but wondered if there was any tricks of the trade you people use to stop the room smelling thanks in advance.

Hello, I have a pair of love birds that I have been breeding. The female is a blue Fischer and the male is a peach faced. I have found conflicting information about breeding them. Some say not to, that it will lead to the offspring being confused and infertile as adults and others say it's...

Paco is a 8 yr old male Electus parrot. I just got him last week and I'd appreciate some advice on breaking some of his old habits. 1) Paco only approaches me, and hardly interacts with anyone else. 2) he always crawls up my arm and in trying to hold him without him being very close to my...
