irn

Missy is 10 weeks old, nearly finished weaning - down to one top up a day now - if that. She loves peas and corn, cooked egg ( still am thinking cannibal with this)and some seeds and fruit and she is my only bird so what do I feed her and is it something that can be frozen in batches for thawing...

My new 4 month old Indian Ringneck is extremely timid. We are being slow and going his pace. If you approach him in or out of his cage you get one of two reactions, 1 is heavy breathing (think watching a horror movie heavy breathing) but puts up with your presence. And 2 is walking or flying...

Greetings everyone! First time posting here :) I have this pair of IRN that laid some eggs (hatched already). Here is the picture (male on the right) I'm curious to know what are the color mutations that may come out of this pair. Also, what are the pair called. I'll add some pictures of the...

Hey! My two IRN's are about a month old now and they're developing feathers. I got them when they were 12 and 14 days old and during that time all they did was eat, poop, and sleep which was understandable. But now the thing that's concerning me is even after being a month old they're still...

Hi all! I am a proud owner of a little Indian Ringneck named Baby Blue. She is a one year old girl with an interesting past. I have been saving up time and money to invest in an indian ringneck. I didn't care about the ring or no ring-- I just knew that it was a bird for me. At least, I like to...

Hello! Bit of insight: I have a cockatiel and a pair of ringnecks. My cockatiel is 3 years old and my ringnecks are 1.5 years old. My female IRN has always been more sensitive of the two and she recently got conjunctivitis and a upper respiratory infection shortly after. We took her the vet and...

Its been nearly a month since i got my IRN parrot. It is pretty scared of everything, everyone. He/she does not like most of the veggies that i feed. All that tokyo eats is sweet corn, apple, pomegranate and sunflower seeds. Whenever tokyo is kept outside for a sun bath, i can hear tokyo move...

Hi there! This is my first post on the forum so forgive my noobie-ness. I've been looking around for an Indian Ringneck for some time now, I have now found someone who buys them from a breeder friend and re-sells them. She calls herself a bird trader. The birds look very healthy, they're...

I adopted a 6 year old male indian ring neck :blue2: named pluto who has had a rough life so far. His first home was a parrot hoarding situation where he was likely also abused, when he was 1 my sister in law bought him and since then he has been in her spare room with a quaker. In those 5 years...

Hey all. I have an IRN and I need a little help. She starts puffing up, screaming and attacking me consistently over certain things, including bells, ice cubes and guitars. Removing the bells from her toys isn’t too much of a hassle, and I suppose I can deal with not having ice in my drinks but...

Alright, today was the first time I scolded my IRN. Literally, after months and months of trying to build trust, being extremely patient to all sorts of biting and misbehaviour, and getting him used to his environment, he still has some absolute hatred for me. Scratch that, it's not me, it's my...

Hi, My IRN loves playing with pencils.......is this dangerous for him? I just wondered because its actually graphite and not led...

Hi all, I'm having trouble taming my IRN. Butters is a creamino, about 14 months old. He's afraid of hands and I'm having a lot of trouble helping him get over it. He'll take food from my hands and I can get him to step up onto a coffee mug, but he nips at my hands and bites hard enough to...

I've had my Indian ringneck male named Forest for a few years now but he is still quite nippy and he bites quite often. His previous home wasn't very good so I understand that it may be because of that but my other rescue birds came around and mostly stopped biting and nipping after a while but...

Hi, My IRN is 10 months old and since he started playing with toys (about 8 months ago) he has always 'attacked' a certain toy. They are a set of cat toy balls with bells in them that i strung on a string and hang in his cage. He lunges at them and hits them, when they swing back at him, he...

Hi, I am new here so just getting the hang of things. I was given a approx. 4 week old IRN orphan in july 2018. I hand raised it and he was the sweetest baby ever. I did step up training and also some flight training. He also gave me kisses. Then he came into the bluffing stage and started...

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...

Hi everyone. Im just looking for a second opinions on my indian ringnecks problems. Recently we took Leo to the vet as he was pulling his feathers out and we thought it was mites. The vet told us it wasnt mites and that he has strained kidneys and that his gland was blocked from a build up for...

Hello to everyone! With lots of time on hand after I got retired from WCB after a work related accident, my doctor mentioned that I should get a pet to cope with my daily pain. (CRPS) I did end up with 1st two Peach face Lovebirds. Couple days later I adopted a couple black masked Fisher...

:blue2: Hello all! I've been looking around for a good forum with a strong community and I'm happy I found this one! My beautiful and hilarious little parakeet, Strat, (short for the Stratacaster guitar, since he loved rock music) passed away a few months ago, after 7 years of fun and...
