    My new best friend!

    I was supposed to go tomorrow but out of fear of the babies getting sold, I went today. On my way home a wicked snow storm started, but rest assured, the baby is warm and safe. The store owner told me she thinks my baby is a girl based on her pelvis, so to be safe she will receive plenty of...

    Questions

    I have a 4 month old cockatiel! I have a question because I always see this. My cockatiel loves to snuggle, he loves his head scratch and he loves kisses. But that’s only he wants. I see birds playing and whistling a lot, my bird doesn’t do that as much. Is it just because he is just a baby...

    Got an egg, been looking forward to raising the newborn chicks! But I have some questions.

    Hello! I was super excited today when I checked on a cage that has three conures in it to find out one of the females laid an egg (hopefully the first of several)! The cage has 2 females and 1 male (the male is the brother of one of the two females in the cage). The female that is not his...

    Which Behavior to Encourage as Babies

    Hello, I've recently entered the process of getting a baby male Eclectus. The situation is that the store where I'm getting him from hatches the babies and takes care of them for several months before they can be taken home. I'm in that phase now, my Eclectus turned 2 months old last week. I...

    Baby Cuddles

    Piña (our pineapple GCC) is now about 14 weeks old and her personality is really coming out. She loves being the center of attention. She plays very well in her cage with her toys and does this adorable cheep when she finds one of the little treats I've hidden in her foraging toys. We have her...
