Hi! I bought a handraised ringneck a few weeks ago and I picked her up today.She got home just fine. But I am slightly worried that she has not eaten or had anything to drink yet. She is kinda staying on one perch. I suppose it will take awhile for her to settle in. I have included a picture of her in her new wonderland. Any advice would be good...I am worried!

When I brought Caruso home, she wouldn't eat ether. so my sister and I took a few seed and offered them to her. after a bit she started eating and drinking. now she's fine.

She's cute!!! When I got my new bird home it took him 2-1/2 to 3 weeks to really get settled in. If she doesn't start eating bring her to a vet. Kiwi ate very little for 3 to 4 days when he first came home. If she's eating something don't worry unless she starts losing weight!!!

I am a nervous new bird owner too!!! I have had Kiwi approx 3 months.
