Hello everyone. I am new to this forum, in fact I am new to owning and loving Indian ring neck parrots, of which I now own 2! I have a beautiful blue, approx 6 month old named Merlin and a yellow, 6 month old called Sherbet. I have just had them DNA tested and found out today that I have 2 girls...which is slightly disappointing knowing I won't be seeing a beautiful neck ring appear on either of them! I love them none the less though! They were both aviary raised, and I got them as 4 month olds. I am trying very hard to get them to be less afraid....Merlin is doing well, but Sherbet is a biter. She even bites poor Merlin now and again. They are both starting to make sweet little noises daily which I feel is a breakthrough as I talk non stop to them!! I love this forum with all it's titbits of information and advice. I previously owned a gorgeous cockatiel who was devoted to me and very friendly, but I am finding these 2 much stronger, not only on beak strength but also in stubbornness! I am sure I will find heaps of help on here with all the hurdles I will probably discover!i would post a photo of my babies, but can't figure out how to do it!
