male ringneck

[Scamperdoo]

I am a parrot mother, looking for a male ringneck to add to my flock. I already have a GCYSConure and Budgie. I am seeking a parrot that needs a new home, hopefully from someone in the5 state area - Minnesota, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota and Wisconsin area.

I want one that is not wild (will perch, interact, etc.), not one that was used for breeding and never handled. I have patience to work with him, but do not want to start from scratch. My GCYSConure came from a pet store and was terrified of hands. It has taken me over a year, using major patience and a lot of interaction to gain enough of his trust that he will perch.

Please let me know if you hear of one. Thank you

Well I was about to say there is a rescue in Belle Fourche SD but a quick Google told me they are closed I've never seen a single Ringneck in South Dakota. The only parrot breeder I know of in the whole state is Mt. Rushmore Parrots, and they don't have Ringnecks but they might know who does.

There are "Parrot Place" franchise owners in both ND and MN, or at least there were 5 years ago when I looked at joining them. They are basically professional hand feeders who buy birds as babies and often they can get their hands on a wide variety of species, however honestly I wouldn't buy a Ringneck from anyone who doesn't specialize in asiatics of you are getting a baby; they are just too different mentally and too easy to mess up.

Sorry I can't be of more help! I grew up in SD and I commonly refer to it as "a parrotless void"

Thank you for the reply and information. I would prefer one that needs a home rather than purchasing a baby.
