I have 3 birds and 2 of them being a cockatiel and princess parrot who live in the same very large cage. I have had them for over 10 years with no problems they were happy and healthy and today I went to feed and check on them and my cockatiel has passed away with blood coming from her nose and...

Hi :) I was just wondering whether anyone knows if household anti- bacterial wipes and baby wipes are safe to use around a bird? They wouldn't be used on toys or the cage but very nearby- in the same room I know sprays and aerosols aren't good but what about wipes? I can post the ingredients...

Hi all. I have previous parrot experience and now that my daughter has gone to college, I am looking for a feathery kid to care for. I have been bamboozled by scammers these past 2 weeks. I AM EXHAUSTED. When I got my scarlet macaw, in 1997, it was so easy. When did this get so crazy, sheesh! I...

My alexandrine worries me. I read some posts on this forum about birds mimicking their owners sneezes and other sounds, but I'm still not sure what to make of this. Sometimes (not regularly, he can go weeks without doing this) he'll make this snorting sound. He sometimes even lifts his head up...

My dad was cutting Pikachu's nails but he moved and was bleeding. I pinched his toe to stop the bleeding and put some cornstarch on it, do i have to do anything else? He is screaming, might be from pain? please help, we'll leave the nails to the professionals next time... Edit: pikachu seems to...

Can someone PLEASE tell me where I can purchase a blue quaker preferably baby or young for my wifes birthday which has just passed. I live in South Carolina near Myrtle Beach and have had a horrible time trying to find someone to sell me a Quaker. I must be stumbling over and over again with Con...

My Vet has prescribed 1ml of baytril and 11/4 ml of meloxicam daily for my sick bird. Several people have told me this is too much and they only gave their sick birds 1 drop a day. I've also spent hours researching the dosage online and I cant find anyone that recommend such a high dose. The vet...

Hello, my 5 year old double yellow headed amazon is continuously making annoying sounds similar to groaning or moaning as if it wants somerhing. I truly have no idea what it could be as my parrot is well fed, hydrated and physically active. I doubt this noise is learnt from my family members or...

Okay, so I have a 9-month-old cockatiel named Hachi and I've noticed that lately he's been sleeping on the floor of the cage. I see him in the middle of the cage with his head under his wing and one leg up (like he always sleeps)and, honestly, I get scared 'cause since he turned around a month...

Hi, I just discovered my budgie bleeding from his wing, after checking him for around 10 minutes I couldn’t find a blood feather and so I just put a lot of corn starch on it to try stop the bleeding. I’ve put him back in his cage and am keeping an eye on him. He’s acting normal but keeps...

Hey everyone! I recently brought a baby parakeet into my home. The pet store said he was anywhere between 3 and 6 months old. But I feel like something may be wrong. He isn't very playful and really has no interest in being around me at all. It's been about four or five weeks now and I'm at a...

Hi, My name is Lina and I’m so glad to be in such great company. Thank you in advance for any advice on this situation. I have been searching for any guidance and cannot find anything on this symptoms. We brought home two beautiful parakeets, Mac & cheese, and they were doing extremely well...

Lola comes into work daily and usually wants to join in when ever somebody is eating. There were people who kept bags of nuts (everyone knows parrots like nuts) in their draw for these moments but we have had a big turn around and i don't want this to go back as too many aren't good. Instead i...

few weeks ago, I lost my nearly 40-year-old eclectus. She was also a rescue, my second rescue. Thunder chicken got along with her extremely well. they always interacted with my supervision, playing, preening, flying, eating and just being happy birds. Jen my Eclectus died from a leg infection...

:blue2:I’ve had my budgie for 1 yr and 4 months. I’ve only been able to briefly hold him but that was a year ago. I can’t hokd him anymore and he doesn’t come out of his cage. The only way I can coax him to be “outside his cage” is to put his favourite toy right near the door so he has to sit in...

Hi! I have one of the cutest parakeets I have ever seen. His name is Bob. He used to be my grandma's but she no longer could keep him because the cat knocked down the cage and she was worried he may get hurt. Bob loves to sing and hop from one perch to the next. The only issue I have with him is...

We have had our, presumably male, IRN for over 3 and a half years. He was rescued from an dirty house that was overcrowded with many birds. When we rescued him we were told he was 6 months old. After all this time, he has yet to get his ring - making me believe he might in fact be a she...

Hi there! I have had several cockatiels as pets and currently have one. I’m not sure that he got the memo about cockatiels being an “easy” bird as he is quite demanding and needy. But I love him dearly. I’ve recently decided to add a larger parrot to my home. Against all advice, my hearts desire...

Hello, around 2 weeks ago we purchased two cockatiels. Both are said to be around 1.5 years old. The previous owner detailed specifically that they need to be bought together since they been like that from the beginning she has had them. She also noted that they don't want to be touched yet they...
