thanks guys im really greatful for the nice things that you all say and the support from you all. unfortunately since i got his wings clipped yesterday he is being abit of a pain in the behind. he wont come out of his cage. he bit me twice and he wont accept any treats i have for him. if this is wha...

i also bought some little bits of coloured wood and plastic from the pet shop today so im going to use the rope from his old toys which are at the minute quite boring and im going to make him some new stuff to play with so i will post some photos once ive finished.
Nicola + oscar.

i have been searching around the net and seeing what i could find to make toys at home for oscar and i come across someone who had used and old wooden clothes horse. they plaited strips from an old tshirt and then tied it all together to make a net for the bird to play on aswell as buying some rando...

Sorry about the size of these pics i dont know how to downsize them!!

hiya bryan, You seem to have had the same problem as me. Well i would call it a blessing in disguise rather than a problem. I also found an ARN. i have tried to find its owners in all of the usual ways but no one has claimed him or even tried. Ive posted photos of him and new topics aswell. his phot...

i was thinking of the name oscar. i dont know why it just seems to fit him lol. thanks for the name ideas donnna i appreciate it alot.
I just need to take him to an avian vet now and get him checked over and see if they can tell his roundabouts age.

hiya guys, well its been ovr a week now and where as he has come out of his shell so much and has taken to me especially ive done everything i can to find his owners but with no luck. He isnt microchipped so i dont know hat else to do so ive started looking into a bigger cage for him and bought him ...

Oh and i thought every one knew what chooks were??? well i have to agree it is funny that we arent all the same or else the world would be a boring place.

LOL. I think we as humans can sometimes underestimate the intelligence of other animals. Literally just as i was reading your post jan, this ARN actually stepped up onto a new perch branch i got for him today. i couldnt belive it. W havent even had it in the house for more than 24 hours and its come...

LOL. thanks jen but i knew what deja vu meant i just meant what did you recall as deja vu lol should have made myself a lil clearer sorry:P Well today im going to go into the local shops and ask around about the bird and then im gonna put some flyers up and i might even go round a few strrest and as...

I have just posted a reply on another topic ive asked about and i am so going to get me one if the owner claims this one back. I do have a video of him doing this stevie wonder type dance on top of the cage when he came out and it is sooo funny. I wish my rosella was as out going as this lil fella. ...

Thanks for your support and advice donna I will folow your advice and ask them more questions of which i know the asnwers too. I have already noticed that it does this stevie wonder kindof dance lol. I left the door of the cage open just on the off chance that he would come out and low and behold he...

another thing jen what did you mean by Deja Vu? lol

hya jen, thankyou very much for your reply, i have found out it is infact an alexandrine ringneck, thanks to donna. And apparently they are alot calmer. Im going to do some flyers and see if i can attract his owner but i just dont know how to know if the people who claim him are genuine. Im just wor...

thanks for the feedback ladies. I am going to try the flyer thing ive just got to get some ink for my printer so i can print some off. I thought he might have needed a bigger cage but being as he isnt mine there isnt much point in purchasing one just yet incase the owners do come to get him and then...

Well in the past hour this one has done so many different noises and it sounded like it said ouch a few times and uhuh! lol But it is now munching on popcorn and i have posted some pics in the phot forum now. Thanks to donna i managed to find out that its an alexandrine ringneck and is about 3 years...

well i found one this morning which lead me to come on this site as i just want to know how to handle it incase his owner doesnt come forward but by the looks of it this one must be fully grown as including its longest tail feathers its like 16 inches long or there abouts. havent got a clue what im ...

AARRGGGHHHH!!!
Sorry guys i totally cocked up that last message. i mean justins bird seems female not male!!!
Its been a long-ish day hehe.

hiya, From what ive read he seems like a male. I read that some people swear that their female IRN's have a faint green ring but the males have black with pink, blue and another colour (cant remeber it though) round their necks. You wouldnt belive how much ive read up on this sort of bird in just a ...

Hiya jen. I have recently rescued an IRN an am wondering how to get him used to my environment. I heard a different kindof squawking at the back of my house yesterday morning and i went down stairs and looked out the back and there he as in the brambles. im from the uk by the way so bad weather at t...

i have to say i have only just got an IRN and i have to agree with alana and donna. your bird should only do things when it is ready and on voice command. Again i agree with donna, if there is an emergency then the bird will know its command and do as its told quick time. In fact, donna, would it be...
