I have recently adopted a 2 an a bit yr old ringneck(blue).
I have never had one of these birds before but intrigued to find so many different people/websites stating that these birds are unsuitable or just hard to tame.
Until i found this site of course

I am wondering if my adopted bird is out of my reach because i was told before i had him that his previous owners(he had 2 homes before mine) first ones had a cat that kept climbing on the cage and stressing him out, the 2nd had 2 dogs(bull mastiff's) and they used to bark at it a lot, plus the owners didnt have much time for him.
Now i have him and have no other pets apart from a lovely non talkative canary...hehe

I am prepared to give my IRN a lot of my time in the hope that he comes out of his nervous shell, and in time he will talk and be hand friendly.
Do any of you guys think i'm fighting a losing battle becuase he is 2-odd yrs old(and had a rough life) or do i have a good chance?
Any info or tips really appreciated.
