Hi everyone

Post by Mahuska »

Hi, a little introduction. I do not have a IRN and am glad I came across this site. I have been considering another bird and have been going through quite a list and narrowing the field. I am not totally new to parrots having owned and lost my Quaker ,"Twirp" after 4 years (that was about a year and half ago). I presently enjoy two Pionus, one a White cap named "Tootie", not DNA'd and a Maximillian called "Lucretia", she was DNA'd. I also have a four legged bud, my Boxer, Dempsey. I am quite a lover of animals and raised/breed/exhibited Birmingham roller pigeons as a youngster. I have done some dog breeding as well but am looking at parrots as companions and not thinking about breeding them at this time. What has caught my attention about the IRN's is their beauty, size is about what I want, some seem to speak fairly well, and they are said to be very intelligent and want to be mentally challenged. This sounds good to me. I am considering some of the more challenging or negative aspects as well. The local breeders that I got my white cap from are breeding their blue IRN's now and if all goes well I could get mine sometime in May. These breeders are great as they abundance wean, play and social the chicks. They leave the roost with a good head start for their new owners. This gives me time to study and read posts and info here at this great site. I plan on participating and asking questions. I have another post, my first, on the behavior and taming forum. The thread is listed as the "straight poop". This gives more info about us. I plan on putting up some pics as well. I thanks all in advance for their time and guidance. If I do end up as a true IRN'er I will try to do the same for others that are like me now.
