ive read that feeding IRN's some flowers is ok. This is from a book - 'Parrotlopaedia - A Guide to Parrot Care'. Some of the things in the list of 'safe food' in this book are in your list of bad stuff; Blackberry flowers and berries, Chickweed, Dandelion leaves and flowers, Elderberry flowers and l...

We moved Spits cage today away from the computer cus hes going mad when my boyfriend goes off to work because hes used to him being sat next to him all day long. OMG! iv never heard him scream so loud!! Its hard, but do ignore him. We didnt even make eye contact or make any noises towards him. about...

ooooh yeeah, this is a good question. Im trying to get my rats to be friends (they are in seperate cages atm), its going ok atm, but i have to cover them up when Spit comes out of his cage incase he flies on it and they bite each other. It would be good if they could all come out at the same time wi...

hehe thank you. i looove rats. they are such good pets even tho they have bad rep

dunno if Spit is male or female but he/she is a looker. hes started getting tiny black feathers around the sides of his lower beak so i dunno if that means hes male? or do females get them too?

Heres some photos of Spit and my little ratty boys. hehe you gota love em all even though they can drive me round the bend. If you are scared of rats dont look!!! This is Spit - the little terror in the house http://tn3-2.deviantart.com/fs29/300W/i/2008/069/6/c/Spit3_by_angelic_demoness.jpg He looks...

ehehheee sounds like he luuurrrves you

ill probably get critised for this, but Spit is only let out of his cage a few times a week for an hour or so. He isnt tame at all, but hes getting there. We only let him out if hes behaving, like if he hasnt tried to bite us that day or if he hasnt been deafening with his screams. When we first got...

sorry for your loss too my friend has an african grey, and he got very very sick with a calcium deficiency three months after getting him, which she didnt know about until he was acting strangely. the veterinarian told her it was an underlying problem from before she got him and nobody knew. you sho...

i've never owned birds before either but i know mine flew pretty damn well (too well in fact) before he grew his two longest tail feathers so i cant imagine it doing much damage to his flight. plus they grow back sooo quickly

Spit started moulting a few down feathers the other week for a few days, but it seems to have slowed down now. he moulted last year towards the end of the summer, and it started out with loads of down in the bottom of the cage, and then the ones on his chest started moultin. he had a bald-ish patch ...

hehehee we used to do this whistle, kind of like short sharp whistles but a few together (i spose like youd call a sheep dog) when we were in the kitchen, and every time we left the room or he wanted attention hed start making the same whistle. its the only thing hes learnt from us so far, although ...

We cant touch him, because hes terrified of hands, but hell come to the front of the cage near my face if i put my hands behind my back, and it does look like the feathers where his ring should be are turning orange the feathers on the lower side of the orange are a very light green colour. i think ...

Thanks for your replies. We did consider the neighbours before we bought him but he screams until midnight sometimes. we are moving house soon so they can have a break and some other neighbours can have some noise haha. We have his cage in the living room, so hes around us ALL the time. but hes scre...

Spit has a few problems, but these ones are causing us HUGE problems at the minute. i dont know how to react to them, so im doing everything wrong and its not getting right... Control Freak: I live in a terraced house, and luckily one house next door is empty, but the one on th eother side isnt and ...

jibby and yoda are gorgeous

i look at your videos on youtube a lot, and Spit sits at the edge of his cage and chirps to them. he loves both of them lol.

This isnt any sort of major problem or anything, its more out of curiosity. Right, we bought our IRN Spit in July 2007. At the time of purchasing him, the guy in the pet shop said that he was "about a year old". I've just looked at some photographs of Spit from the time we got him, and i d...

Hi, i was previously on another forum for Ringnecks and was told to check this one out. I'm a photography student, and i share my house with my partner, two fancy rats, and Spit, a green ringneck. my boyfriend decided to get a pet bird a few months after we moved in together. he searched for weeks a...
