I would not have thought of that either! Thank you both!

I hadn't thought of that and very possible. I have to run by the petstore tonight anyway I will look into the heated perch. Thank you so much! I named her "Grace".

I will keep you updated. Thank you so much for your advice. I will try the cover part way and see if that helps her.

Hi MissK, Thank you for your kind words :) She is in a large cage with toys. I have a vet appt scheduled. She just looks like she is in alot of pain, I have no idea how old she is. She does not move and she shakes alot. I understand some of that is fear being in a new place but she is a complete sta...

Thank you for your reply. :) I guess I am struggling with trying to save her or the alternative. I know atleast right now she has a home better than she ever had before, living in pure filth and half starved with a woman who admitted she didn't like her at all. She looks so miserable. She is eating ...

Two days ago I was given a female IR with alot of issues. Missing a toe, very very bad feather condition and a hole in her beak. She is very skinny her eyes do not pin the pupils just stay huge. She has been fed nothing but cockatiel seeds her whole life. She is scared of everything never even had a...

Thank you!!!

He is beautiful! I am very greatfull for all you helping me sort this out!!!

I could see how that would happen... Yours looks alot like mine... Its nice to see how pretty mine will be when "she" matures. I feel better atleast knowing what color "she" is considered. Although a beautiful baby I cant wait for "her" to be all grown up and see "...

The breeder when I called for more info like birthdate and diet said that both parents were blue. My husband said he saw both blue parents. I dont know why she would hide a green parent... She did state she usually will always have a grey baby but did not with this clutch... instead came two the col...

I originally thought Olive too and my bet is still on female. She is just so darn sweet. If I went by that website Opaline would be the best match color wise. I am just so confused by all this. I am still really curious how two blue birds would have babies this color... Its become an obsession tryin...

ok deleted my last post because I was wrong, apparently cinnamon dominate edge dilute -fallow cinnamon would be the best match. The colors are identical. Thank you so much for all your replies. I am now going to be sending off dna I really want to know if male or female.

I will check it out. Thank you so much!!

Brownish green like the long tail feather.

Thanks for the response. My husband bought her for me. He said both parents were blue. There was one blue baby, one normal green like my older male, then two like the one he bought me. He chose this one cause it was the sweetest so he assumed it was a girl and he didn't want another male. lol

Better pic of coloring maybe...
I am sending off for dna next week. To find out sex. Open to any guesses from the experts here!

I am not sure if my new baby is male or female. Also he/she is more diluted and has alot more yellow than my green male. Both the baby's parents are blue oddly enough. She has no he/blue in her tail like my male either. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-6oSLmvBa83Q/UAGUENSqwaI/AAAAAAAAADI/mnxxQOM81...

I found your post per your request. I have had Rosco for 6 months, he is 4 years old. He has not been a screamer since I have had him. He will call to me once or twice when I leave the room but that is all. I will say this from my experience with Caiques (huge screamers): Find him new toys he is rea...

Mine is 4 years old. Because he is so young he may not feel comfortable about talking in front of you. My mom used to have Caiques that would only talk when no one was in the room. Rosco talks all day and repeats things we say. He likes to play a game where he whistles something and we whistle it ba...

well yeah but mopping tile is alot easier than scrubbing carpet

I have been looking into this also. I want to make my sunroom/computer room for my birds only. Right now we have toys in every room and mostly hanging toys / stands. My husband is really good at building them. We have agreed that the sunroom where Rosco is now will be their room once we get the floo...

Thank you!

Your welcome! Just keep it up. Before you know it he will be saying all you are trying to teach him and more... Just talk to him Alot. Rosco knows atleast 30 words and atleast that many sounds. My two year old son makes car noises when he runs, so now when Rosco sees him run he makes the sound and d...

When I got my ringneck he already knew how to talk, but I wanted him to learn "my words" I just talk to him constantly about the same things every day and sometime switch it up so he doesn't get board. He started saying the new things when I was out of the room first. Then he started sayin...

My husband brought home a "surprise" for me last night... A little baby ringneck!! he/she is 14 weeks old and completely adorable. While I am totally blown away and happy, I cant help but wonder what Rosco will think. Right now she is in our bedroom on the other side of the house until she...

Thank you So much for everything! Really means alot the strangers will go out of their way to help with someone else's problem. :D Rosco and I are just going to take it one day at a time... He is here for life, I just have to have faith things will be ok. He was talking to me this afternoon, but I d...

I wish I knew why it has made him turn against me. I am not a yeller or screamer. I just walk away and stay silent though that day I did walk into the sunroom and stay in my chair while my husband followed and continued to fuss. really strange

I am still trying with the foraging. He is not interested in any of it. I do put some food in his bowl but I have moved it to where he has to really try to get to it. The balls of paper with his food I have hung around his cage he will not touch I have made toys with food in them also. He just smack...

I have tried the foraging, I had fun making all the little hiding places. stuffed his favorite stuff in rolled newspaper and plain white paper, toilet paper rolls... made his food bowels harder to reach. I did leave it all like that he knows its there I sat by him making it all so he could watch wha...

Btw I did put him back in his origional cage because he would not do anything but cling to the side of the new one and scream. He talks very well and has not been a screamer since he has been here. I just couldn't stand that he was so upset. Probably the worst thing I could have done, He hasn't came...

Just thought I would post an update... Rosco has gone completely off his rocker... Since the day we brought him home he has been attached at my hip and now he just hates my guts! I cant do anything with him, he attacks me when I am feeding him, if he manages to take anything from my hand he will dro...

Thank you so much for your responses. I moved him to an extra cage I had in another area... He instantly went back to being his same sweet self. Although he does not seem very comfortable in the new cage I am guessing the change was needed. I was very hurt (I know I shouldn't take it personal) that ...

I am new here and I have been trying to understand what is going on with my boy. I have had him for about 6 months and he has always been very sweet to me letting me do anything I want with him, stepping up and behaving like a perfect gentleman. He is not a screamer and talks very well and usually s...
