Hi, do the female IRNs talk as good as the males? I have a female IRN. I know that some species that the male is a better talker but the females can talk as well. How about the IRNs.
Thanks.

Just a "bookworm" (or rather an internetworm?) who has no ringneck(s) but REALLY wants a cobalt or violet

That myths page is awesome!
I have two ringnecks, and while they haven't gotten their adult plumage yet, I'm pretty sure one is male and the other female.
Archimedes talks and whistles, although not as well as many other ringnecks I've seen. He also started late. He gets an A for effort though, as he practices all day long, even if he can only say "hello" and "whatcha doin'". But he took to whistling the Addams Family theme song and the Pirates of the Caribbean song very well, although he has his own way of whistling it, even if it isn't exactly how the songs are supposed to go!
Kashi I'm pretty sure is female, and she makes almost no noise at all, not even their natural calls. Which is funny because she was really vocal as a chick. That's how I found her in the bird store, she was calling the loudest for food!
I definitely wouldn't say it is typical that males are better talkers than females as this is totally not the case, but it just happens to be that way with my birds (assuming that I guessed their genders correctly)
I also agree with what the myth page says about IRNs not being good pets. They are excellent pets!

Re: Do females talk as good as males?
big myth that one isn't it ? we all know us females what ever the species are much better talkers and communicators
but seriously, it is all up to the individual personality of the bird as well as your interaction with them.
