Hi, My name is Mandy and I have just bought (today) a 12 week old albino IRN named Gandalf, ( I don't know the gender but I'm just treating him as male until I'm proven otherwise).
Gandalf isn't hand reared but has been raised in close proximity to humans and is fairly steady when you approach his cage etc.
I am hoping to slowly gain his trust and train him and I know this can take a very long time but I have experience training parent reared 'tiels, Lovebirds and Senegals.
I do not own any other birds at the moment and haven't for the past 3 years or so so it is really exciting having a parrot in the family again.
I can't wait to delve deeper into this great forum and find out about all your beautiful birds and the best way to care for my new baby.
