Re: Citrus Fruit
I've read that you should avoid giving your IRN cirtrus fruits - does it hurt them. I was given an IRN, named Rosie. He loves oranges - but I won't let him have any more until I know if this is true. As long as you remove the pips there is no real problem with oranges (i dont know about other citru...

Looks like a great book. Do, please, let us know how good it is. ^_^ I've read some very good things about bottlebrush. Sadly, as a Landscaper myself, I haven't run across any of the trees on any of my jobs, lol. Let me know how Clamps takes to it. I'm interested in getting hold of some. ^_^ Whoops...

Gloves are very controversial in the parrot world, lol. I believe it can be alright to use them. Simply because of this fact: A bird who only knows gloves would be terrified of hands. So it stands to reason a bird may bite a gloved hand. That's better than biting my finger! It's difficult not to je...

If I may offer some advice... no gloves please. I know the bites hurt and I too used a golf glove at first until I was taught better. As long as you use the glove you are sitting back the day he or she becomes tame. My bird bites when I try to get her out of her cage mostly, therefore, I use a 'ste...

Hi, Just purchased a 9 month (possibly 8 month old) irn today, I had been contemplating getting a parrot for quite a while now and decided on an irn due to their colors and general good comments/reports on their temperaments. I took mine home (lets call it a him at the moment, Im still unsure as to ...
