I am new to this forum. I follow this forum and two others. I just got back into raising Parakeets after a twenty-seven year absence. No kidding. Things have changed. One great change is forums like this. Another is how people feel about diet.
I have always loved Polytelis parrots. I have a pair of Rock Pebblers (Regent Parrots) and a pair of Princess Wales. I will shortly add a pair of Barrabands (Suberb Parrot). The Barrabands are too young to ship yet.
I also have a single male Mulga parakeet (a Psephotus). He is young and I will get him a female eventually. Until then, he is star struck for some reason with the female Rock Pebbler--who is the grumpiest of the parrots.
As most of you know, Polytelis parrots are gentle, quite, and almost naturally tame.
Mine are in an aviary in my basement (about 25' long, 8' wide and 8' tall). It has plants, a sand and gravel floor, running. filtered water, full spectrum lighting.
It has been such a joy to return to my birds. I sit in their aviary every evening for an hour or so.
I have learned a lot from the discussions here, enjoyed the photos, and feel there are many good parrot owners here. Thanks.
