Eclectus Parrot
hello to all parrotforums members. i am from indonesia. i recently have a new companion, a male eclectus parrot, his name is Miko, roughly he is around 7 months (im not sure), he joined my family 2 weeks ago. I go to this forum to share the same passion with you guys, and also to get more information specifically for eclectus parrot. As there is very few avian vets here in my country, i think its a good idea to join to this forum and share with you guys so i can take better care of my new companion.

apologize if there is any misspelling, inappropriate or maybe i speak weird english, its not my main language, but.. i'll try my best :D

Welcome. Your little guy is super cute! Still very much has that baby look to him:)

Eclectus are the most diet sensitive parrots and many health issues the species is prone to can be entirely prevented with proper diet. Lacking access to an avian vet due to your location, please be sure to post any diet related questions to get clarification from the many experience eclectus owners on the forum so you get him started on a proper diet as young as possible.
