Molting or lice?
Hello, It has just started to become Summer and my Indian Ringneck has started molting (I think). I have provided the pictures below but some of them are probably not clear. I am not sure if he has lice or is just molting. He has just been chewing or grooming his feathers, and smaller feathers have ...

My Indian Rigneck is now 2 with no ring around his neck. He got a sex test when he was young and said he was a boy. He had a light black ring around his neck but not fully bold. When should it get very black?

Hello Eggy :D Your cage seems to small for your bird. If it's been in an aviary, then no. If hand raised; theres an option. But really, it's old and rusted. No, actually... I heard trying to wash the rust off... will make it even worse. I'm sure you can spent an extra $100-200 on a cage and some toy...
