What type of bird is this?

[Bird &Fish]

Hello, sorry if this is in the wrong forum. Can anyone tell me which type of bird this is. Thank you.

It looks like a Ringneck of some sort! Either Indian or African.

Looks like a Indian ring neck but I maybe wrong

 

[April]

I think it maybe an African Ringneck. @Monica

African ringneck

African was my first thought but I wasn't confident enough

The head shape snd dark beak
Learned from @Parutti

This is NOT Indian ring neck, that's what I am sure... Must be African ring neck

 

[Parutti]

Yes, African Ringneck parakeet Here's my guy with his nice full black mustache Females have no ring and their beak stays darker once they're adults, from what I've read. I adore their vocalizations - it's like R2D2.

are you thinking of adopting her?

 

[Bird &Fish]

Yes, it’s as 4 hour drive to best friends animal sanctuary though. I’m thinking about it, but not for a few months. (April minimum). Anything I should know about them?

 

[SumitaSinh]

Go ahead... Ringnecks are awesome!

I have got conflicting information on Africans. Some say they are louder than macaws and some say they are quiet. I know every bird is different, but what is most common?

 

[Deleted member 57370]

@Parutti has one and she can let you know! She's done lots of reading and research on thrm as well.

I’m debating between the mini macaw, the BB parrot, and the African ring neck right now. I’m leaning towards the BB.

I've heard many past owners of BB thst had all good things to dsy about them .

But I met one once and the vocalization suorised ne wjth how strident it was.

maybe I heard the BB alarm call..lol ive searched and can't find tge matching vocalization on you tube..it was a loud BBB sound. But the species isn't known fir being loud thst im aware of

These species are all very different that you are considering. So keep up your research to see what will be a good fit for you. You csn visit the sticky at the top.of each species forum for the good, bad and the ugly

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly about Mini Macaws

The attributes listed in this thread are the experiences of each individual and your experiences may differ with your individual bird. Another thread for TMS's idea.. My experience is limited to Severe Macaws or just one severe macaw. Of course, what's good and what's bad is subjective. We all...

I can hear my ARN's flock call and alarm call from inside my next door neighbor's house with our windows closed, but the sounds themselves aren't annoying to myself or any of my neighbors. In general he's quieter all day than my Quaker or than most conures I've met.

I think the best way to figure it out l, especially if you're looking at rescues, is to meet as many birds in person as you can. You could do some volunteer shifts at Best Friends if you're nearby, or if your area has a rescue. I've learned a lot from volunteering and have learned which sounds and calls I find enjoyable and which I don't. Some sounds that I don't care for are species I was heavily considering before I met my ringneck, so I got lucky
