zazu used to do the same thing with mysister wen she would sing to him... he would hop arond and whistle then put his head back for an itch...

Hey all, thanks for your comforting replies. I’m sorry to here that you lost one of your babies last year. My African grey has never been happier though he is now cock of the roost. My friend said he saw him flying around near his area and he doesn’t live far from me. There is an aviary with a few r...

IMR4N

Hi guys i haven’t been on for along long time and i hate to return like this but the last few days if been running around like a an idiot following parrot sounds going to aviaries and pet shops stopping people in the street. I’ve not been doing it to meet new people or for the good of my health iv b...

IMR4N

Hmmmm… pulling feathers out???? I don’t know about that I mean it is pretty painful looking... just as pulling hairs out your head and if needs be your "particulars"…. You know how your eyes water after I’m sure there’s do as well an we know how temperamental most if not all IRN’s can get. I mean ma...

IMR4N

Hey people what an interesting notion hmmmm. I have heard in several cases that birds brought up together will never talk and if you put 2 birds together that can talk they will stop both these statements I have found to be false. They will mimic mostly what they feel they need to in order to surviv...

IMR4N

Well my zazu hasn’t yet fully moulted yet iv had him about a year now and he hasn’t cropped any more feathers for about 23 months now and clipped him when I got him and he’s moulted everything else except his flight feathers which were clipped. I thought it might be a calcium deficiency so I boosted...

IMR4N

Clipping is initially up to you my fried if you would like you bird to freely follow you around the house and be free to go to his cage when hes tired and get the he needs then I wouldn’t but if you’re thinking of his safety then I would. Some people say that clipping stunts the bird’s confidence an...

IMR4N

hey Athena i was just wondering if Cody and micha were both pure bred CAGs. i ask because Cody looks like teh smaller greys i have seen that have the same colouration as the normal CAGs or it might just be the way they sit or the sex. Sorry but I get confused because together the 2 birds look very d...

IMR4N

And why should it offend anyone??? If you cant turn to friends in the time of crisis then who can you turn to? I’ll be praying for you and your father.

IMR4N

hey angie thas a funny lookin budgie u got there (stella) is she pose to be like that or does she just enjoy her snacks.lol

IMR4N

ditto zazu does the exact same thing thats weird i thought in was unique

IMR4N

Hey tiels are pretty easy to sex pink “nose” equals female and blue “nose” equals male… just like budgies. I’m not sure that baby is a male like I’ve said before I have seen a female pigeon pin he male counterpart the tow I own before where both female one use to dance to the other and then the othe...

IMR4N

And I thought this was a forum for birdie problems only. Lol

If he formatted your hard drive then I don’t think there is any chance of recovering any files if it was just a basic recovery then you could maybe find them.

IMR4N

Hey there. Congratulations with the step up. What you need to remember if that these birds have short attentions spans and can grow bored very easily the best thing to do is time each session and see how long it is that he will attentively work at what ever it be that your teaching him. does he let ...

IMR4N

LOL "whats the matter" tahts amazing the way he talks and brutus is a stunner to i love the way he was taunting Archimedes. zazu loves blanch ( my Congo African Grey) but despises Chaz (my Timneh African grey) but neither can get away with taunting him he kicks **** if they try. i see Archimedes let...

IMR4N

Hey people. Mikaela is right you know maybe you should have a look around and see if you can find the owners; I mean he did sound as if he was tame at some point seeing as he let you pet him and such? That and he doesn’t seem to bathered of you holding a camera in his face. Where about’s is it that ...

IMR4N

Most of what mikaela is saying is right. If you do separate them then u need to keep them apart i.e. don’t let them congregate/communicate until at least 1 of them becomes friendly make need you when you feed them feed them fresh fruit and veg with a few seeds biscuits etc and save most the peanuts ...

IMR4N

parrots love knots and to untie them

IMR4N

It’s the same with all birds they need regular handling and if they can do tricks which they receive treats or praise for and do them in front of you and don’t receive a treat then they will eventually stop performing that particular trick. So the pet shop owner was wrong in making such a statement ...

IMR4N

Great topic people although I’m sure we have discussed this before.. I think a bird will only speak if it thinks it is necessary for it survival in the wild they will make noises like predators to warn off other predators from them. You guys should check out this CAG Einstein he knows what he is doi...

IMR4N

Hey welcome to the board Lets see to start with weigh the amount of daily food in take your bird has and cut a couple of grams (say 2 grams out) this is so come training time he is feeling little peckish. This might sound cruel but it really isn’t as long as you train him on time the idea is NOT TO ...

IMR4N

IMR4N

im not sure but i am thinking its a female. Jeremy that’s not quite true is it??? you are a breeder so you must have a small incite on the traits of male and female behavior and various visual characteristics of a young bird.

IMR4N

don’t let him sit on your shoulder too much he could get pretty cocky. only let him on your shoulder when you want him there not before. do you have toys in there for him??? if you do he might be frightened of them that’s just maybe though. most birds see there cage as their safe haven so they don’t...

IMR4N

what melika sed is right it can take any where up to 4 or 5 years. Just like ages of puberty can very in humans some people don’t blossom until there late teens where other’s do before the age of 11 or 12.

IMR4N

if you rinse the bleach off I don’t think it will have any effect socking it in vinegar leaves a disgusting vinegary smell.

IMR4N

Meat isn’t good for chickens. not health wise i mean it makes them mentally unstable i.e. they become more territorial and protect their territory at all costs against anything even the hand that feeds. i dont know if the same applys to other animals.

IMR4N

sounds like ur IRN is already happy to get on with your tiel. jus give your tiel some time because by the way you have putit it sounds like your IRn came on pretty strong.

IMR4N

i must say buddy is a big IRn is he a modification or is it jus the pic????

IMR4N

Hane began molting after Tsume and finished before Tsume was done. He preened a lot, took baths, and was scratched and pet to help those sheathes come off the new feathers. It seemed, and was, over quickly. But he also didn't get covered in new pins, they were scattered. -shrug- He just did his thi...

IMR4N

May I say you have a collection of beauties do you sell them or are you giving sage to a friend?And those play areas look out standing very lucky looking birds did you make them you self???

IMR4N

sounds good to me. but it would be easier to share it via kazza, limewire, napsta or a similar share server and tell us what the file is called and which server your useing. just put it in a zipped folder and put it in the shared folder of the server (ive got Limewire by the way hint hint). if you d...

IMR4N

Sadly mikela I wish I could say I agree with you. Your notion on moderation is okay maybe in some cases apparently the digestive system of a bird is not cut out for breaking down dairy i.e. they can’t digest it whether it is cheese, milk or buttered toast they find it difficult to digest I mean the ...

IMR4N

Hey a lot of great advice there. Different things work for different birds for example I have a CAG who despises humans I’m assuming she’s wild caught because to start with she tolerated nobody not even the pet shop owner. But sure enough she’s starting to settle down now. Imran was your grey like t...

IMR4N

We talking about hair dies and “Play Time”

now as well hay gurls????[/quote]

IMR4N

Melika and selma If yall read back to my post I did say it can sometimes happen. But as carly said its better for both the owner and his pet human to know what is being said.

IMR4N

Which one of your babys has the infinitive love for the rolls???? Because if they’ve been playing with them for as long as they have with no effect I don’t see how they can get zinc poisoning? And the heading of the letter does say “Potential zinc poisoning”.

IMR4N

I had a pair of female IRN that changed nothing between me and the one with PBFD. She would still call out to me. She was with the other IRN long before we bonded.

IMR4N

You wana check out Alex the african grey. i think he can do something like that or is learning to do so.

IMR4N

Not in the least bit antagonising I also love discussions. Now I’m not suggesting that training can change a bird at all what I’m trying to say is that bonding with the animal is important if not crucial. As you said about molly before may be she just needed to get use to ya’ll being part of the pac...

IMR4N

Ahhh melika that’s the beauty of forums to put opinions forward and have discussions. The thing is no-matter what the animal or bird no-matter what shape or size they yearn to be groomed or to groom others so it is in their nature to yearn to be touched but only by what they consider to be their par...

IMR4N

I think he’s probably just exercising or stretching Zazu does this all the time. but im not sure.

IMR4N

That’s amazing I can hear Zazu chattering away I have heard him doing the wolf whistle and saying good parrot and what sounds like hello gorgeous. But as soon as I go to praise him or acknowledge this act he stops and climbs to the top of his stand or cage he also sort of dances when he tries to tal...

IMR4N

That’s quite an achievement. I think I can see a smile in the second pic. Just waiting for Zazu to finish his malt he’s a bit moody. There is something melika said in a previous topic that I don’t understand. How long was hanes malt???? she said he was fully malted in 26 weeks that makes him a recor...

IMR4N

Well you have a beautiful bird. Its just like you said though the pic doesn’t do him justice it far to small.

IMR4N

Sure you could give him something to play with like a knot or a fresh twig from a fruit tree to chew on or a peanut you get the point.

IMR4N

I don’t think there are such things “exceptions” as it has been put. I think that sometimes people loose their patients with these birds since they do go through different stage and moods. Because they’re not docile and trusting of everybody (take for example the umbrella cockatoo). Any way they sta...

IMR4N

Sounds to me like he’s a content little birdie and sounds very happy as he is having the run of your household. Its like if you shower or are doing something which you enjoy you maybe sing to yourself or if nobodies around even praise your self that’s what he’s doing. My IRN also sits and mumble to ...
