I am so sad for you.

My condolences

CalamariBaby

True every bird is unique. My suggestion is to put his cage where he is around people all the time. He says so many things at 15 months that he just cracks us up. I started a list but I only write it down if he says it more than once. Tonight I swear he said "What do you want to do". Every...

CalamariBaby

We are so proud of him. This week he actually said hi to two visitors. Usually he just sits quiet when people come over. The other day he said Hi to my husbands surfing buddy. I thought it may have been because he is so tall and was right up there with him eye to eye. But today when my mom stopped ...

CalamariBaby

Wow! He is awesome. Love him. I like how he has that sweet young bird look.

CalamariBaby

Woah.... that is a cool sound. Never heard that before. Cool. I don't know if I will play that for Zazu. I like to keep him talking or quiet

That was for sure a cool sound.

CalamariBaby

Cool. They are so cute when they start talking. I love the mumbling. They are practicing something new. I have always covered Zazu at night and in the morning he stays mellow in his cage practicing and rehearsing. It is hilarious. We had a breakthrough though. We call Zazu our talking frog because w...

CalamariBaby

My baby was clipped when I got him and I believe it helps get them to trust and rely on you. It takes quite awhile for thier wings to molt and grow in so you have some time to work with them. In the begining they always want to get back to their home so fo birdie time take him where he can't see his...

CalamariBaby

Don't rush her. Not only did her home change her family has changed. I would do the usual. Don't bug her but leave her cage open, talk softly and kindly to her a lot and eat around her offering her treats. She will come around.

CalamariBaby

My Zazu loves to talk into his food bowl, too. Sounds a little like the echo from a bathroom or something.
They are so cute.

CalamariBaby

My little Zazu is a boy and he is out of control with talking. we have him in our living room where we are all the time and he is 14 month now and says lots of thing but off the top of my head says, hiii Hello step up kiss kiss (then makes a kissing sound) come here I love You Go home no thanks I sa...

CalamariBaby

He is beautiful.
I like that one of him you took with the computer cam. He is like looking right at it like he just figured it out.

Funny...

CalamariBaby

Love the name.... Love the bird. Gorgeous! I would love an AG.
Lucky....

CalamariBaby

Zazu and me. He just turned 1 yr. in this shot.

CalamariBaby

Luckliy I got our bird while I have babies. Baby wipes are quite handy for bird owners.

CalamariBaby

I just can't say enough good about them. Their babies usually hatch Feb/March ish so now is a good time to talk to Pat and go see her set up if interested. I can't say I have ever seen an IRN any shop except Our Featherd Friends in San Diego. But I would much prefer the kind of raising they get from...

CalamariBaby

Here some ideas if you are still thinking

Milla (Mia) just think it is cute
Emerald
Jade - or Jayde
Midori (that stuff is yummy) cute name too

CalamariBaby

True Zazu is so quiet except for him murmuring and babbling..... He is trying new words and sounds right now so it is a funny time we listen and laugh at what his next word may be... :oops: But when the kids start getting loud and high pitch as little girls do he will start with some mocking squaks ...

CalamariBaby

If you are in LA and you seek a bird raised for temperment and personality I highly recommend The Beak. http://www.thebeak.net/ringnecks.html They are not in LA but they are in Alpine down here past San Diego, well worth the road trip. I got turned on to IRN's through videos and this board as I look...

CalamariBaby

I was unsure of what to expect sound wise when I got mine but turns out he has been very good. We got him at 2 months old. We have always covered him from about 9 pm 'til 8 am and his is quiet 'until we get 'up and start breakfast.... This is when he starts in with whatever words he knows hoping we ...

CalamariBaby

he/she looks beautiful....Congrats and sorry about your other fellow...

CalamariBaby

toni Any parrot will benefit from a bath. If your bird is scared to death, don't force him. I take mine in the shower with me and they see me having a good time so they want to get in the water too. Another thing you could try is filling a shallow dish with clean water and set that by them and start...

CalamariBaby

I have seen them for sale on ebay.

CalamariBaby

Welcome....
Your IRN, Doisy is the same age as my Zazu.

CalamariBaby

We would love to see a pic of yours.

CalamariBaby

There is a post here someplace but do this....

Go to photobucket.com
open an account.
then you use the code they give you to embed your pics.

It isn't hard once you figure it out

CalamariBaby

You know..... If you were researching another bird in the same price range you would probably find the same amount in shelters and rescue centers. There are many people who either adopt animals for the wrong reasons or are faced with problems that mean they have to give them up. I believe if you bri...

CalamariBaby

Ringnecks are great. So intellegent. I think of them kida like a cat. They will take affection on thier terms. Zazu has claimed me as his so I am the one who gives him pets and scratches. Boy does he need a nail trim though. He surprises me by quietly walking up and climbing on top of my bare feet. ...

CalamariBaby

Good luck! I hope they make some babies.

CalamariBaby

hi, sorry your having these problems. I find with sunshine, the more touching you do with her the less she wants to bite. Like sitting on your shoulder, she loves to be pet on her back and on the back of her neck, and I also try using 2 fingers and touching her beak gently....when she eats to clean...

CalamariBaby

Yea.............lets see some pics.

CalamariBaby

That is so cute..... I hope my boy talks one day.
I do fear what he may say.....hopefully nothing he hears from my husband. :O.

CalamariBaby

Did you see, "Under the Tuscan Sun."
Good Luck, right.

CalamariBaby

Love your IRN's. BUZZ sounds like a crack up..... Sounds like poppy puts up with a lot. IRN's never cease to amaze me.

Welcome UNA.

CalamariBaby

you need to log in. and look up next to prifile you have a place to click if you have messages.
Hope that makes sense.

CalamariBaby

I am sorry, Sky.
Your family is in our prayers.

CalamariBaby

I don't think Zazu is going through buffing as he is just over 4 months old but he does do it to my kids. He learned right away that my sweet 4 year old could be bluffed. She does not want to get bit. But my 2 1/2 year old isn't afraid so he just runs from her. He has been very gentle with me. When ...

CalamariBaby

If they're wings aren't clipped they can fly just fine. Having them clipped helps them to rely on you a bit more. especially in the beggining. It is personal preferance though. We will eventually give Zazu full flight. With my bird we have had him for 2 1/2 months and he is 4 1/2 months old. The fir...

CalamariBaby

i read it i cried i loved it calimaribaby soul master i love the term it gives the illusion that we own these wonderful bird but im pretty sure im owned by mine right now im being told to get off that silly computor coz there are fruit bowls that need filling but back to the topic goobie was so luc...

CalamariBaby

Long but a happy ending. Makes me sad when people do that to any animal. I have always felt that when you make a decision to get and animal you have a responsibility to hold up your end of the bargain and give them the best you can. Pets are not disposable... Glad that little bugger found his soul m...

CalamariBaby

Thanks Pink. I put in the link.
Babies must use some of or brain cells up while they are developing.

CalamariBaby

Well, I found this link and thought it may be helpful.
I know many of you have more than just Cats and Birds.

Oh... Here is the link:::

CalamariBaby

Oh plus..............I'll be Google..ing it right now.

CalamariBaby

Great topic!
I have never had to deal with that during any pregnancies because I had no Cats. But now I do do the bird cage. I guess I can hand that job over to hubby.

CalamariBaby

After I saw your WET BIRDIE pics I decided to let Zazu go to the shower for his first time. I just let him stand on the shower rod and then dribbled some water over his back. He seemed to like it. So a couple more times then finally turned the water cool and low and put him under the rain. He LOVES ...

CalamariBaby

I am totally a newbie and have never hand raised a bird but in this situation could you just maybe hand feed this little guy for the first feeding and maybe a little before bed or can you not have parents feed and handfeeding?????

CalamariBaby

Thanks a bunch. My due date is Jan 7th. My little girl who is 2 1/2 looks in my belly button and says she can see the baby. Kids are a crack up1 I can't wait to know whether it is a boy or girl. Hoping for a boy. I have two little girls and a balance of hormones in the house would be nice. :) good l...

CalamariBaby

He is a pretty little guy. I got my baby @ 2 months old and I've had him for about 2 months. I have a cage that the top opens and he likes to sit on top. I'd say the first month he always wanted to get back to his cage. So I just let him go when he has had enough. about 3 weeks ago I noticed he woul...

CalamariBaby

Yay! Great news.

CalamariBaby

I just thought with all the postings on the subject I should post mine, too.
I am 15 weeks pregnant myself.

I have two children 2 1/2 and 4 years old now but just had an ultrasound and this always amazes me.

Just had to get in on the announcements.

CalamariBaby

Congratulations to you...
Wow! awsome news.
