    Should I get my 'tiel a buddy?

    I have a male cockatiel named Flint that's a little over a year old. He's pretty feisty. My schedule has been busy lately, and I am unable to spend more than an hour and a half with him before having to go to bed. Not every day is like that, but it's gotten me wondering about getting another...

    About Candles Near Birds

    So, I was wondering a bit about candles. I have a lot of them. None are strong enough to smell all over the entire house, but they do have a scent. Assuming that I do decide to adopt some feathered friends (most likely budgies or cockatiels), I will have them in a less populated, small room with...

    Squeaking before pooing and stretching

    Hello everyone! Recently I became the proud new owner of a beautiful green cheek conure, Manny. Manny is fully fledged but is still very much a baby. He eats on his own, knows how to step up and is a wild man for the most part. The only other bird I’ve had is a cockatiel. With my tiel I know...

    My budgie keeps sitting in their food bowl..

    Hi there! A couple times a day my Budgie, ( Named Coco ) sits in his food bowl, I'm not sure why and I'm not sure if that's bad. I assume its bad though as I'd imagine him pooping in it, and I don't want him to eat his poop. If what I assume is correct how can I get him to stop? Edit: This...

    How much millet should you give a budgie?

    How much Millet should I give my budgie? I'v been feeding him off and on the same spray for a couple of hours, I just gave him a final piece. Also I wondered if I should give him it once a week or everyday?

    Gathering information

    So, here's how things are. I've had a parrot before, an male Cockatiel named MooShu. Got him from a pet-shop and he came with a virus. He died after 1 month of me taking care of him. Medicine and vets just couldn't save him. Now, I want to get an Thai rose-ringed parakeet, or as it's called...

    cheap play gym

    I'm looking for a cheap play gym to put on top of my birds cage. When I got her she felt safe going on the top of the cage it seems to be her favorite place. I'm wondering if anyone knows some play gyms that are at a reasonable price so I can put them on top of her cage.

    My bird hitting her bell

    I've noticed that when my bird plays with her bell she plays with it rather aggressively, is that normal? She will slam her beak into it and it seems like she's almost attacking it. It looks like she keeps going back and forth from playing with it to fighting with it.

    Coop Cup Question!

    Has anyone used these cups before? A&E Cage Company Bolt-On Coop Cup 20 oz | DrsFosterSmith.com? I saw them and thought they might be cool to try, but I wasn't sure how the coating is. I'm having a hard time finding any more info online either, so figured I would ask here. :)

    First Molt (?)

    Hello again guys! I just wanted to ask a question about molting, and the signs that you have witnessed personally as canary owners. As some of you may have read in my previous thread, my canary Peeps was showing some strange behaviors, but they were a bit difficult to read since they coincided...

    Small update and question.

    Hey Guys, it’s me again. As I once said in one of my most recent posts, I had the idea to move the baby parakeets to another cage(yes thee are two of them now.), I still feel rather bad for even suggesting taking them away from their flock, but I have made some improvements to the idea. As I...

    Pictures Soft section of beak?

    Hello, I've recently noticed that part of my macaw's, Ollie, beak appears to be soft in an area. It is a small section on her upper beak along the bottom edge, on both sides. I was wondering if this was normal, maybe her beak is growing? When I touch it she doesn't react, no pain or anything...

    GCC: Long-Term Commitment

    So recently I've been interested in getting a green cheek conure (still have a lot of research to do) but something that worries me is the long-term commitment. I currently have the time, money and commitment needed to take care of one but whether or not I will in the future is another thing...

    Biking

    I mostly just made this account so I could ask this question; could I bring my cockatiel on my bike? I have an aviator harness and a bike basket for my dog, are there any safety hazards? I mean obviously I could crash my bike, but that comes with taking your dog in it too.

    What is Normal VS Abnormal Quaker Behavior?

    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...
