    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...

    Turquoise and purple ringneck?

    Saria is molting and I've noticed that she has a little purple around her crop and on her head. Is this a thing? Once she finishes her nap I'll post a picture.

    Pionus as a first bird?

    Hello! I’m kind of new to this forum, so I’ll introduce myself quickly. My name is Louise, and I’m hoping to get a bird soon. The thing is, I still don’t know which breed to choose! I’m still hesitating between a Pionus, a ringneck, and cockatiel. Of these three, I’ve fallen in love with the...

    IRN afraid of EVERYTHING

    Saria is afraid of everything, she's afraid of paper towels, pens, things she's never seen before, and places she's never been before. When I put her on her training perch I never get to teach her tricks because she's too focused on getting off. That's another thing, she gets way too focused on...

    Ringneck

    So I already made a post about Saria and how she always wants to be on me. If I put her on the table she just flys to me, how do I get her to be places without jumping onto me?

    Ringneck help?

    I just got a ringneck a couple days ago and for a ringneck, she is pretty friendly. Whenever I get her out she goes straight to my shoulder and climbs onto my head. The problem is that she is afraid of my hands so if I try to get her off, she bites me. I can't train her on her training perch...

    Hello everyone! I'm not yet a bird owner but I'm very seriously considering it and collecting all the research I can on the subject. The species I'm most seriously considering are budgies, finches, and--most seriously of all--ringneck doves. I'm looking at different breeder option but I have...

    Hi! I am new to this forum, so excuse any issues I may have with this post. I am going to be a new bird owner, but I am really torn on which breed to get! There are so many I like and I don't know which one I want. I was thinking mostly of a Sun Conure but I also really like the Green Cheeks...

    Greetings, information needed.

    ive been browsing this page for a while now on my journey to learn as much as possible before getting my next bird. All the information is very useful and I can usually find the answers I'm looking for. So my birds in mind are either a Parrotlet or diamond/ring neck dove. I've read the most...

    Bonding with a (somewhat) new bird?

    Hello all. I brought home my ringneck, Yoshi a month and a half ago. He comes out of his cage on his own, and is pretty content on my shoulder. The problem is that he does not really like my fingers, so when he's perched on them, he bites really hard until I put him on my shoulder :bash:. Is...
