Hi,
My name is Deb and I have 2 IRNs. They are now 3 years old. A male and female named Taj and Raj. Taj is grey and Raj blue. We hand raised them from 18 day old chicks. No feathers and no idea of sex.
They are adorable. Taj is the talker and Raj is the screecher. We are not breeding them as they are brother and sister. They do an amazing mating dance but no mating takes place. They live in a cage and I have wired some branches for them to climb up on, on the top of the cage. They love to chew at the branches and these can easily be replaced with new ones when needed.
They come down onto the floor for a walkabout and Taj climbs up my leg (with jeans on!) to sit on my shoulder. He only climbs up my leg!! He has just developed his ring which is black.
Love them to bits!
