H Ok, I'll try to send pics here via photobucket....just a sec...... http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll250/katzoo77/DSCF5741.jpg http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll250/katzoo77/DSCF5742.jpg http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll250/katzoo77/DSCF5747.jpg [/img]

Hi I wasn't sure which part of the forum to go to with this question so I thought I'd try here. My lutino IRN which I only had 2 weeks, has slight browny/orangy tinged edges, on the tips of his tail feathers, like a thin brown outline on the ends of his tail feathers. Is this normal or is it a sign ...

Cheers for that Nil

Thankyou sooooo much for that info!! Cheers

Hi I just wanted to ask you about one of my ringnecks, the grey one. As you may already know, I just got them last Friday but had them waiting for me at the breeders for over a month. I have four of them and they were all caged together. I noticed that the grey ringneck sometimes has a slight trembl...

LOL Tasha. Yep, Christmas is deffinatelly coming early for me!!! Can't wait!!!!!

Thanks for the tip about the rain Tasha...perhaps if we had fire sprinklers in our ceilings, I could occasionally set the smoke alarm off and give them a good shower heh...heh... To Paul Hi and congrats on your new IRNs aswell!!! Re the excercise regime...well...I don't really have one as yet...beca...

Hi Soon I will be going to pick up my four male IRNs, which I will be housing in a large indoor cage. They aren't tame but aren't flighty or anything like that either. They are already used to living with each other. I just wanted to ask you all on here, if you have some extra tips or suggestions on...

Ok...I know I asked a similar question on here not that long ago but if it works, I think this is what I'd like to do....Could I keep 4 tame IRN males in the same cage ...I'd obviously give them daily outside time.???
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

oh goodness. Well they are deffinatelly not doing that!! I did question that with them but they said the others don't look like they have it! There were two female IRNs with the infested one - plus all the other caged birds next to these...it is a pet store after all! Thanks for that Donna!!!! I wil...

Cheers thanks heaps for that Donna!!!!

Hi One of the IRN I will soon be getting is currently being treated for lice and/or mites...not now 100% sure which, if not both. He has lost some feathers around his neck. Could anyone explain to me more about these lites and mice...ooops...I mean mites and lice Is it 100% cureable, are there any p...

Thanks Nil & Tasha I really appreciate your opinion on the cage...I was scrathcing my head not knowing what would be a good cage.I appreciate your advice!!! Cheers

Thanks Nil & Tasha.

Thanks Tasha. I don't know what to do. I wanna get a couple of the IRNs from that pet shop - they've been sitting there for ages. They act as a couple but the sellers don't know if they are related or not. I also came acroos an add of a couple of IRNs ... a violet male and blue female, which are rel...

Hi
I'm just wondering if some of you IRN knowledgeable keepers could tell me if it is at all possible, to keep four IRNs together in a large cage......or would they all fight?

Thanks...much appreciated

Hey Giantfoot
Thanks for the welcome...you have some interetsing birdies!!!!
I can't figure out how to attach images on here so if you would like to see my pics click on my homepage url icon

Oh I see. Ok, Thanks for that. Cheers

Great. Thanks for that

Hi I was wondering is anyone could tell me when does an IRN reach his/her full size. The ones I am planning on getting are not too much bigger than a cockatiel (their tails are longer though ofcourse). Is this as big as they get or will they get bigger?? I've heard they grow to about 16inches?

thanks!!!
Hey Wendy PLEASE keep me updated how things go with your new IRN!! I'll be in your shoes soon too so I want to follow your progress and see how things go with having an IRN. Is yours tame??
I know what you mean with being a defence widow, can get a bit lonely sometimes hey....

Do you mean like having all three seperated or having the 2nd female seperated from the couple?

Well at the moment they're sitting in a wooden box about 40cm x40cmx40cm in the pet store...they've been there about a month now. I don't know where they came from prior to that. I am not getting them for the purpose of breeding but if they showed signs that they wanted to "make babies" th...

I'm not sure how old they are. They don't look like babies but the male hasn't got his ring yet either.
Do you think putting them together will not work?? They seem to get along together where they are at the moment but I don't know if they all came from the same batch.

Hi I'm in Singleton (Hunter Valley) - my hubby is in the army here, ....before that we lived in Sydney for 6years but came from Adelaide. We are hoping to end all the moving very soon. I'm planning on rescuing these three beautiful IRNs in our local pet store - they've been sitting there on one brok...

Hi all I'm currently hunting for a cage for three IRNs and I need to know what is the maximum bar spacing width/size (for their cage) that they can have . I'm looking to get a cage on Ebay so I need to know what to look for and what to avoid! Any suggestions?? All advice greatly welcome and apprecia...

Thought I'd introduce myself!
My names Kat. I live in Australia.
I have two red-rumped parrots, a green cheek conure and I will shortly be aquiring three IRNs - I'm very excited about that!! Still thinking of the names!!
Nice to meet you all!!
