Dani

Now that is odd.

Andreya

:shock: There wouldn't have to be laws like this if people looked after their pets properly. Unfortunately farmers do shoot native animals. I see it as selfish. There are ways of dealing with birds eating crops other than shooting them. Roos here are shot too. Theres even been culling! Funny how yo...

Andreya

The only state I could find was NJ for IRN's but the Quaker is illegal in California, Kentucky, Tennessee, Wyoming, Kansas, Hawaii, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, because they are very prolific and make nests on power lines and destroy crops they are a very hardy bird that live in almost any climate. ...

Andreya

Oh my gosh, he's ADORABLE! I want him. :P

Andreya

I live in the US and know that Ringnecks are illegal to own in New Jersey... but does anyone know if they are anywhere else??

Andreya

And thanks to everyone else too. :) I'm quite excited to finally have one that wants to be with me as much as I do her. She's amazing really. I hadn't had two of one species of bird before so I couldn't compare them personality wise. I have a Parrotlet and Red Rumped Parakeet that both love me and h...

Andreya

Sometimes it's just meant to be. She's a beautiful girl. Congratulations! She is so lucky to have found a best friend to bond to and get a good home. I am very interested in this behavior. I wonder what makes a bird fall in love with a person. I have a 6 mo old new at home too and he/she fell in lo...

So I just got a new Creamino Indian Ringneck (Lola).. well not really 'new' as I've known and interacted with her for months now. She was for sale at the pet shop I used to work at before it closed. She is six months old now and they never were able to sell her. So a few days ago the owner gave her ...

Andreya

I can't hold mine yet either and so far he doesn't seem to be scared of anything. And I can't tell you on babying, because I baby all my other animals, probably too much.

Andreya

I'm hardly an expert, but I tend to think that variety is good. I do that with my birds. They eat what they want and seem to be happy having lots of different fruits and veggies. I do try to introduce new stuff also, so that they aren't eating the same old thing every day. I also feed seeds and pell...

Andreya

My Nigel doesn't play well with others; especially not my little ones. He tries to eat them. I have to watch my lovebird the closest because (she's actually tried to fly into a Macaw cage before!) she thinks that she can take him out and would definitely try. My other two (Parrotlet and Red Rump) le...

Andreya

What a beautiful Princess! Is she tame? I've heard they are one of the harder grass 'keets to tame. I have a Red Rump.

Andreya

What a beautiful bird! I LOVE the picture of him in the water!

Andreya

Have any of you tried a flight suit or harness? I'm just wondering. I got Nigel a harness so that I could take him outside and not have to worry about him... but he's not tame enough yet to put it on. So I don't think we'll be going outside any time soon.

Andreya

I don't have a cuttlebone for Nigel, but I have one in with my Lovbird and Parrotlet and they have never touched theirs.

Andreya

I agree. I don't know if you have it there but what usually helps me when I'm sick is Echinacea tea by Herbal Medicinals.. otherwise you could try tablets. :)

Andreya

I'm in Alaska...

Andreya

haha I've never said "True dat" in my entire life.. but sadly a lot of people do. I like that you say "bloody", that's my favorite word.

Andreya

Awww, Angie. I'm sorry you're sick. :(

Andreya

I don't know that it's about being feminine. A lot of Americans don't sound very feminine, regardless of an accent. Personally I just think it's cool. Aussie, Brit, you name it... we want what we don't have. LOL

Andreya

I sooo understand the not "stepping up" thing now, after getting a Ringneck. I thought, ah, it's not much bigger than a Cockatiel... it's not always the size that matters. My Nigey thinks he's king of the world when he's up on his playstand. :)

Andreya

Of course Angie, ALL Americans want your accent, they just won't admit it. :)

Andreya

Congrats on your new baby!!

Andreya

Both your birds are beautiful and the pictures of them in the shower are great. That's awesome that your IRN gets along with your Cockatiel.

Andreya

Beautiful birds and even more amazing pictures. They are absolutely perfect.

Andreya

Oh my I love those violets. I can't keep my eyes of them. :D Cousins with Jays! Thats exciting. Yeah they are. I was lucky to get him. There were three others that were for sale a green, creamino and albino but there wasn't a question after I saw him. :) I know. How cool is that? I was actually jus...

Andreya

Conure, the one you have looks really cute... but very small. It may be the picture. Is that a baby?

Andreya

Gizmo made his first shrieking sound last night,he/she has only done this a few times since,its not constant but no doubt it will get to be :), reminds me of a squeeky dogs toy :) Congratulations Donna, you have a ringneck! :) Thankfully mine doesn't do it constantly either; I think I would be out ...

Andreya

Awww he's adorable. Great pictures!

Andreya

Congrats on getting Sophie. She sounds like a sweetie.

Andreya

My IRN is a total pain in the butt... but I'm not sure if it's because he's moulting, bluffing or a little bit of both. It's a good thing he's pretty. :)

Andreya

You're lucky you've only got grinding. My Nigel makes this annoying shrieking sound when he doesn't get his veggies fast enough in the morning...or he wants out, or just because he feels like it. LOL

Andreya

Welcome! What a beauty (now I have another color that I want). Sounds like you are doing great. Little patience and a lot of bandaids and this too, shall pass! Thank you and thanks for the encouragement. There have definitely been days I've been ready to give him back. I haven't had birds for very ...

Next to my name he is the furthest one on the right and in the introductions section I posted another one of him. :)

Andreya

So you got your birds from Valerie... awesome! :D She has a very good reputation as a breeder. We both belong to the same Yahoo Ringneck-List and Genetics group. For some reason, pictures don't do Violets justice. Because the Violet coloration in IRNs is produced by a combination of melanin and the...

giantfoot_truck wrote:Thats a perfect blue color!!! And Andreya you are soo lucky to own those three beauties!

Thanks. He's Violet and actually I don't own all three. I just LOVE that picture. The one on the furthest right hand side is Nigel, my bird. :)

Andreya

depois do prazer wrote:Nice color indeed. He looks like either a Cobalt or Violet. The normal Blues tend to be lighter, kinda like powder Blue.

He's Violet. :)

Andreya

Angie, Thank you. Like I said I think he's moulting because his color is a little off from when I got him. He's not as pretty. :) I will try that. Thankfully his wings are clipped so he can't go far after he gets mad that he can't be on my shoulder. I went through the biting thing with my Parrotlet ...

Andreya

Hi, I'm Andi. I just got my first IRN, Nigel. He is 4 months old and I think starting to moult. He was a re-home and he is semi tame and intermittently bitey. I've read that it's a "blufffing" stage and hoping he outgrows this soon. I have 3 other birds: Red Rumped Parakeet (Oliver), Black...

Andreya

Old thread... I'm new here but Feathered Exotics was where my Violet IRN came from. So I was kind of excited to see it on here. :)

Andreya

I have a violet colored Ringneck. He's not lilac but he's pretty.
