Countdown to baby begins!!
Posted: Tue Jan 14, 2014 5:02 pm
Hi everybody! My name is Alijandra and Im living in Orlando. I am excited to say that in just 4-6 weeks Ill be able to bring my baby home! He/she is going to be a Green/Turquoise IRN. I've never had a bird before and am trying to prepare and have everything ready before I bring him home. Any tips on things I should have? I've been scouring the boards and have found some AWESOME information but any other tips and advice from your coming home experiences would be awesome.
I don't yet have a carrier, but I do have a perfect sized box, with holes of course, that I though would be good to transport the little guy in. Im trying to find an actual carrier though, but they all are so expensive.
Ive got a cage, perches, toys, and even found a vet!
I figured I would ask the breeder what pellets she feeds them because it is overwhelming the brands and types, but I cant wait to cook for the little guy.
What do you use to cover the cage at night? Just a sheet? And are IRN's prone to night terrors like some other birds?
I feel like Ive done a lot of research but other than the breeder I don't know anybody with this type of parrot, so any first hand account experience would be amazing!
