Hi all, I am currently located in Los Angeles, California and I will be moving permanently to Ukraine in about 6-8 months. I have a one year old male cockatiel and a 3 year old green cheek female that need to come with me. I have started to do my research but it turns out this topic is...

So I just bought what I was told to be a 4 week old sun conure. The breeders had fully weaned ones but they were insane and didn’t even like the breeder let alone me. They also offered the newborn which was irresponsible on their part and my dumbass took it cause I wanted to raise it. I’ve...

Greetings! I've had Sencha (GCC) for about 18 months and haven't travelled during that time. I'm considering a trip later this year for about 7-10 days. I have a friend who is an experienced bird-keeper (she has a cockatiel and a GCC). She would be willing to care for Sencha (in her house)...

Hey there! Brand new to this forum. I recently moved to Alaska but left my sun conure Simba behind with my parents so I could settle in before moving him up. Now that I'm pretty settled, I'm getting more and more anxious about getting him up here with me. He's a pretty nervous bird, getting...

Hi there! I was wondering if anyone had experience with having to leave their parakeets behind for vacation matters. I am currently a college student, and I plan from moving from where I live now, Hawai'i, to Oregon to transfer into a zoology degree. I also have 2 parakeets, their names are...

Heya! I am looking for ideas on a safe, secure place to board my precious baby, Bongo, or a reliable service that provides Pet Sitting at home, though I doubt I'll find the later one being that I live up more in the northern country areas of Minnesota. Anywhere in Minnesota is close enough for...

I have my 5 month old budgie relocating with me to Sweden soon and was wondering if anyone had travel crate/accessories recommendations. I'll be on United Airline and then SAS :greenyellow:

I am planning on going home for Thanksgiving. I will be there for 3 days, flying to and from for 2 of them. The flight is only an hour. I was wondering if I should bring my Conure. She will have been with me for 2 weeks before this flight. I don't want to leave her at home as no-one will be...

Hi! So I recently adopted a 4-month old Green cheek conure named Mango. He belonged to my friend but she couldn't take care of him so I took him in. The problem is, I need to travel to Jordan for 4 months and I want to take him with me. I booked for the 16th of August which is a little over 2...

so long story short my GW macaw comes to work daily (or used to). i had a small/medium sized dog cage with a perch attached that lived in the back of the car. someone stole my car cage and all. i'm using a cover car at the minute and might need to end up replacing my car but regardless, buying...

I'm travelling home for a few days with my GCC on the train. Just wondering if there are any dangerous fumes on a train I should be wary of? I don't think there are but I wanted to make sure :) he has a travel cage, food and water and toys as well as a cage that we'll assemble once we arrive up...

Dear Members, Can anyone help me, my male lovebird quite often turns head like it is looking to his shoulders or something is bothering it. Recently we traveled and it was in a cage. I dont know what has happened to it. Can anyone help if any medicine can help?

I'm looking into a small travel carrier for my GCC and Sun Conure. Currently my GCC has traveled, to the vet and back, in a small plastic cat carrier. However, there isn't enough room between the top of the carrier and the spot where I could place a perch. So when traveling he clings to the...

Hi! I am considering the idea of getting a young eclectus, but I have a couple of questions that I can't find answers for online. If anyone could direct me to pre existing threads or give advice/opinions I'd be very appreciative. I'm pretty sold on eclectus as the best kind of bird for us...
