parrot

Hello, I've just recently changed location and there are many wild cockatoos here (Whitsunday islands in Queensland, Australia). I've noticed that many of them have brown feathers around their beaks, and on their bodies too. They look a lot like this...

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 everyone! New Quaker parent here :) I've had my little Nova for about 2 weeks now and I absolutely ADORE the bones off her. I have a few questions I'm hoping some of you can answer for me if that's okay. 1. Taming I've got budgies that I managed to tame myself and I'm guessing the...

Hello! I bought 2 months ago red-fronted parakeet (I don’t know if it’s correct in English, the Latin name: Cyanoramphus novaezelandiae) called Henry. But I made a mistake and I didn’t know a lot about parrots then so I trusted the shop owner of the pet shop. He said that the bird is very young...

Hello everyone! Hope all is well. I am truly looking for help since no vet has been able to help me properly so far and it's making me panic soooo much. A few months ago, my cockateil had something itching him to the extent of bleeding himself. I sprayed a medicine on him and gave him a good...

I have had this bird for quite a while, she is quite noisy at times but she's calm and won't trigger her yelling instincts unless provoked. i have had her out of the cage on regular basis, but i just cant find her a look alike. Images:https://gyazo.com/fe8ecc50ed19ef5832fb24dbf6d6b60c...

I've been searching for a young, adult Macaw to have as my companion for what seems like ages. Even though Texas is a BIG state, it's a black hole for Macaws, apparently. Adult macaws in good condition are hard to come by. I just want to find one to adopt to be my lifelong companion. I'm even...

Hi, I have an african grey that I adopted last year. The owner did not know where the african grey was bred. However, there was a leg band reading 7HH96V. The owner said that he was 18 or 8yrs old. I just need help decoding the band; 7HH96V. Any ideas where it was bred and how old it is...

Jacob my blue and gold macaw is finally on YouTube. I've been wanting to put his videos on YouTube but the videos from my phone camera came out sideways. I converted them with VLC but they don't upload to YouTube. If anyone knows of a better free converter that doesn't have adware or viruses...

I am wanting to see what you guys think about what this little guy is. The pet store that I found the little one in are not sure, which Is strange so I need some help!!

So, today I found parrot in the street which was in very poor condition. I do not know if he is boy or girl, or breed. I think he/she has a disease of beak, I gave him water and food and mineral blocks.

Recently I’ve noticed some feathers missing on my quakers left leg. The rest of his body appears to be fine but as the days have been passing more and more feathers have dissapeares off of his leg. I fear that he may be plucking, altough he hasn’t been acting out of the norm, so I’m also...

Hey folks, I need help!! I have an 11 year old Meyers parrot. She has her own room, which is our spare bedroom with a wonderful view of the backyard and big old trees. She loves her cage, but she is constantly squawking! If we leave her for more than 15-20 mins, she's squawking. We have been...

So, confession time, I've gotten lazy and uninspired in the toy department. Kermit was getting bored, but I just couldn't think of what she'd want to play with. I took a few stabs at it, but most things I made are apparently Very Scary (there is an empty pill bottle filled with cool little...

I'm deeply missing my family's birds and am hoping to find one of my own. I'm hoping for a red bellied, as that is one my family has but would be open to others. I'm located in Portland, OR but willing to travel a reasonable distance. If anyone could point me in the right direction in finding my...

Hi every one I posted a little while ago to try and get help in identify a green parrot that we discovered in trees near our house and it kept flying in to a neighbours garden to feed. It turned out that it was a Indian Ring Neck Parrot and its name is Chester. I found owners they said they...

For background info, Kermit and I have had a long and frustrating road with the harness. We started off with some decent progress, she plateaued, then started making some progress, then completely reverted to fearing it and we had to start from scratch. I'm not the world's most consistent...
