It has been very hard to find a specialized vet here in Cape Town, South Africa. Anyone else from my area have any recommendations?
Thank you

Re: Baby IRN little bit frightened
Awesome to hear. Sounds like you're doing okay. These little guys are tricky :) but give an assortment and you'll soon see what they pick out and what they don't really like. Because my IRN is still a baby, I boil all his food until it is really soft so it's easier for him to eat. Stuff like peas, c...

Re: Baby IRN little bit frightened
When I brought home my IRN he was 4 weeks old, it's my first time owning a bird and I was very worried because he didn't seem very happy but after a few days he settled down and got used to me. It does take a little while for them to adjust, you must just try to handle them as much as possible, soon...

Re: What to Feed your Parrot (recipes, toxicities, links too
I was just wondering, I have heard that IRNs are lactose intolerant but there is yogurt on your list? Thank you all for your advice

Re: Baby irn
Hi Keiri I'm no expert when it comes to IRN, my bird is also 5 weeks old and I'm still learning but I can tell you that the advice and food I got from the breeder was horrible. I live in South Africa and the breeder gave me Pronutro cereal to feed to my bird and thinking she must know what she was t...

Re: First time owner needs some advice please :)
Thank you so much for your reply, your advice is very helpful. Having his wings clipped very lightly like you said you do seems like the best option :) I'm not sure how long it takes for their feathers to grow back, how often does your bird get her feathers trimmed? My bird is 5 weeks old now, is he...

He hasn't started flying yet, he just flaps his wings like crazy. At what age should I get his wings clipped? If the...
