parakeet

Hey again, guys!!! It's been a while. (: So, here's the thing. I have a parakeet, named Kiko. I've had him for about 3 years now and I haven't been able to touch him once or do anything with him. He was the most stubborn bird ever, for the first year I got him I spent hours on end with him...

I took my parakeet, Chipper, to the vet a couple of days ago to get her claws trimmed. They always weigh birds whenever you bring them in, which I like. But it turns out Chipper is WAY overweight. (The vet tech said she's "a little chunky"). I knew she has been getting a little chubby, but I...

I found this little guy at the farm around the yard, managed to catch her before the cat did! Just wondering if anybody could tell me what type of parakeet she is?

Hello, I have four male parakeets which haven't been mine for more than a month. It started with one parakeet (Articuno), then a friend gave me Sheldon because she thought he'd be happier with a friend, and finally I got two others from a lady who knew I had two parakeets and couldn't take care...

Hey everyone, my name is Andrea. I currently have only one bird, a budgie named Fynn. I am currently working on hand taming him as he hasn't had much human interaction. :smiley2: He's a sweet little guy, and i'm also working on getting him off of the dreaded seed only diet. I'm pretty sure he...

I just got a new plum-headed parakeet, it is a female one an i call her Nami, sh is about 3 years old and she was born in captivity.Actually this is the second day I have her with me. She is afraid to it and when she is trying to eat sunflower seeds she drops the down. She tried to escape...

My wife and I recently put a deposit down on a male plum headed parakeet baby. We currently have an 8 month old female green cheeked conure (pineapple) that has been a joy to live with. There really is next to no information on keeping plum heads as pets on the internet, just a couple videos...

HI. Our parakeet is between 5 and 8 years old. Between wing clippings she got startled and flew to the window sill but then fell to the floor (6 weeks ago). Her wings were not hurt (checked by a friend who is a more experienced bird owner) but one of her feet doesn't seem to work right anymore...

Hi bird lovers!(: I'm new here, and I have a parakeet named Kiko. At night and in the evening, he sits on the perch closest to the outside of the cage. Thus meaning that I can easily pet him through the cage. I've never actually pet him before, because whenever I stick my finger in there, he...

Hi Everyone, my name is Brian but my user name is Bynnie... I got that name from my niece when she was very young. She called me uncle Bynnie because she couldn't say Brian, so it has stuck with me for the last 15 or so years. I bought a pair of parakeets about 10 years ago when my wife and I...

Hi guys I recently became the owner of 2 cute parakeets. They were passed on to my girlfriend from her late grandfather, so we really do not have much experience with the sort. Also, I'm not sure how old they are, but pretty sure the youngest is somewhere between 2-4 years, and the oldest a...

Hi guys. My kak (Sunny)laid her first ever egg last night but sadly i found it this morning cracked at the bottom of the cage and it was leaking. She wasnt near it (it was like she new it was broken) so i took it away? did i do the wrong thing?? Ive gave her a nest box and shes been in there for...

Hi... I have put a deposit down on a Rosey Bourke's parakeet. It should be ready in about 2-3 weeks. I already have two cockatiels, a green cheek conure, black capped conure and quaker. Yet I feel like I know NOTHING about the Bourke's. Any one here own one that can give me any pointers? I read...

Hi, I just joined this site tonight, and I was hoping someone could help me with a problem I'm having with my parakeet. His name is Buddy. He's the first pet bird I've ever had. I got him from a bird farm when he was about 2 1/2 months old. He's now about 4 months old. He was pretty easy...

Hey everyone!!! I am a new member and just wanted to say hello!!! If there are any tips anyone could give me that would be helpful lol. Thanks in advance. :blue2::yellow2::whiteblue::greenyellow:

My alexandrine has refused to eat anything...! What do i do?

I have a 8 week old alexandrine parakeet. He was never scared of me when i brought him home but then he fell sick. After his recovery he always hides himself behind stuff and avoids every person, even me. When i reach out my hand to cuddle him he gets scared and runs to a nearest corner and sits...

My Alexandrian parakeet is in a habit of flying around the house & we haven't gotten his feathers snipped; so he's usually all over the place whenever he's out of his cage. Today he ran into a glass door & a wooden one when he was following me into the kitchen :( He still made there but hit the...

I have no idea if it's male/female, we call it a he. He's about a year old now. We got him from a local pet store that is really particular about who they give their pets to. They make sure you have all the right things for the pets and even want you to bring the cages in before you take them...
