Hey everyone. So tonight my 22 year old cockateil Squeak took a tumble while my bf was watching him. The old man still thinks he can fly but he really can't. Anyway, he tried to fly back to his cage and missed his mark causing him to hit a set of draws beak first and land on his foot. When I...
Hello everybody, I am very new to this!
Over Christmas, we found an Eclectus parrot in our garden.
We have taken him to the vets and followed up on lost bird ads, but no luck. Somebody must miss him terribly, but until someone comes up, we are more than happy to care for him. We have no...
Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum, and new to bird owning itself as I have never owned a bird in my life, but recently I inherited a mature green IRN from a deceased relative. I'm not sure how old he is, and my relative wasn't even his original owner.
He has never been handled to my...

My sister has owned a small rainbow lorikeet for about 2 months now. They used to be relatively inseperable (apart from when she had to go to school) but recently it's started being super aggressive when she goes near it. It will happily hop onto my arm, but even just having her in the proximity...
Heya! I'm a first time sun conure owner- for a year now, and I've hit this snag with my sunny. I got him when he was about 3 months old, and he was precious. Already tame and what not. He made being a first time Sunny owner easy. I'm a school teacher so during the school year, he got use to me...
Hello! I am new to this forum and I am planning on getting an Indian ringneck within the next year or two (I would have one now but the bf won't let me yet lol) I already own a cat and a bearded dragon but I feel a bird would bring me so much joy (my other animals do obviously but there's...
Hello people! First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for this amazing forum, forums like these help us keep an innocent soul healthy!
I bought a 2 weeks old Indian ring neck 2 weeks ago, the breeder told me to feed him Nestle's Cerelac and nothing else. I've been feeding him well with a 3ml...
Hello :D
I was just wondering if anybody has any advice for my first week of having my new Green Cheek Conure! Nobody in my family has ever had one of these unique creatures and I'm pretty dang happy that there is a forum to find out!
Advice would help, I already got the cage, toys, perch, etc...
My conure started sneezing repeatedly but I saw no discharge around her nose and appearance wise she seemed fine (I don’t know her gender but I call her a she). There are some dried fruit in her food bowl which I saw her eat then a few minutes later I saw her bob her head back and forth and...
I’ve had two 9-month old sun conures for the past four months, but I think not much bonding has been done still! My family says that they like me the best, they hop up the stairs to my room, scream for my attention when I walk in the room, and they really like being on my shoulders most of the...
Hello everybody. I have been stressing all month about what to do with my birds on New Year’s Eve and yew years day because my neighbors always like making tons of unnecessary noise and throw a big party every year. This is my first year dealing with this when it comes to birds. My birds normal...
Hello,
On the 28th of October I got an untamed, aviary cockatiel. I have been told it is a female and around 3 months old. It has now been eating from my hand for about a week, but is still quite scared of my hand. It has not been out of the cage and has not been on my finger as a perch. When...
so, i'm getting an Alexadrine soon and will be having it in an outside walk in aviary. The thing is, the Alexandrine will be less than 4 months old, and i don't want to risk it flying out of it for the first few months in case it won't return, and seeing it's invasive it'd be illegal and...

Okay, first of all, I apologize. I know that some people might get angry with my post, and you have full right to be. I am angry with myself too.
Now let's start with a little bit of background:

Hi everyone,
I saw a forum about this recently but for the life of me I could not find it again. I plan to take my GCC with me basically everywhere I go that is suitable, and I believe a flight suit would allow me to do this.
I would prefer one with a diaper included, purely because Conure poop...
