eclectus

Hello So I have a male eclectus... I'm just a bit confused because everything I have always read says that these birds don't bond with one person.. well my bird has with me and he now HATES my fiance..its so bad that he always has to be in a cage when my fiance is around or else he will fly at...

I have just now realized that in four years of life (oh how it sneaks up on you), Zephyr has tried many a food - but never apple sauce! I myself am a big fan, and as such like to stock it around the house. Obvious solution? Give him some! It's 100% organic, just apples, water, vitamin C, so it's...

Lulu is great! She is so perfect and I love her so much! We adopted an eclectus on Monday and she was the nicest thing ever! She jumped on my shoulder, l had her lay down on my hand, and we spent the three days introducing her to the harness and she finally went on her first walk! She is...

Hey everyone, just wanted to say that tomorrow we are going to have a new member to our family. Lulu the Eclectus! I'll keep you all updated tomorrow afternoon once we receive her. We are all very excited. :) I have done my research on eclectus parrots. An eclectus seems like the perfect pet...

Hi everyone, I consider buying an eclectus in the future. And I have a few things I am curious about. They may be stupid. But, well, whatever :)) Any answer appreciated :) 1) My time schedule differs each day - I am away from home for about 8 hours each working day. This is avarage time and I...

I brought home a 6-month old eclectus a few weeks ago. I'm a new owner and am doing the best I can to give him a happy home. I've noticed in the last week or so that he is horribly afraid of shadows all day long. It's particularly a problem because when I approach, there is a huge big monster...

Is it possible to teach like a 10 year old eclectus to talk?

The ad makes it very clear that she isn't tame and she is unfriendly. This price is only $625 though. I just don't know I need some help thanks:confused:

Any owners out there who can answer this question? Thank you! :)

Hi, I'm adopting a 6-month old male eclectus who is having part of a wing amputated due to a previous injury. I would like to get cage recommendations, including whether it is advisable for him to have a play area on top. I'm thinking something not very tall but wide and long and with a soft...

The doctor says I must surrender my parrot. I've had her since she was a baby. She's 15 now. She's very smart and is a good companion. Not demanding. She is a self-plucker, so she's not pretty. Good talker. Her name is Maya. Other than the plucking thing, she's been very healthy.

Hello everyone - Seeking some general guidance on how to "tame" my new baby. She is a ~4-5month of Solomon Island Eclectus that was hand-fed. She was very cuddly/tame with her owner. However, she's bitey with me. I brought her home Tuesday afternoon last week and she appears to be settling well...

Hi, So I have a pair of eclectus 12 years old. I bought them last year, and the previous owner told me that he successful had chicks from the pair. For the last year breeding these pair was a total disaster. The female produced clear eggs, although I did see mutual feeding from the female...

I was wondering if anyone knew what is going on with the top of Rainbeau's head? This has been going the past few years. It comes and goes. Everything else is normal. We're thinking hormones, but not sure.

Hello all, Today I am posting in hopes of finding a good home for my pair of Eclectus parrots. I have (Yogi) a 4 year old male Solomon Islands and (Ruby) a 16 year oldfemale VosMaeri. Ruby came to live with us after her original owner died of cancer after years of treatment that left Ruby...

Hello, My partner and i recently adopted a male eclectus about three weeks ago (approx 17 weeks now). He is still on two feeds a day of baby food and he has dry food available (pellets) and he has home made parrot chop available as well as fresh fruit every day. The issue we are having with...

I have a couple questions regarding Eclectus parrots. I know that no bird is silent, but are these birds extremely extremely loud? Can these birds bond with more than one person? Are they extremely messy? Like scrub down the entire cage and vacuum the area once every ___ days? Are these birds...

Hi! So I will try to keep this concise. I grew up with birds (Quakers and African Grey), but its been many years. I am new to the Eclectus breed. I was looking to adopt a bird here in UAE (Abu Dhabi, I'm an American expat), but couldn't find any and then I saw this adorable Ekkie in a pet souq...

So I've had Bella for more than a month. She was hand raised along with her brother, and once weaned, her and her brother went to stay with a caique and their sister from the previous years hatchlings as well as a few other birds. She's now the only bird indoors and I feel a bit bad about it...

I was wondering how often I should replace my eclectus' boing rope? She sleeps on the very top every night, so the bottom section gets very pooped on! It's made of thick sisal rope. She's been using it for just over a month. I don't have a dishwasher or a washing machine, so I have just been...
