I forgot to ask them what the temperature is for the first week of one... I do know that once they have most of their pin f...

Anyone who has an INR will tellyou that they make great pets but people who are not as experianced will say they dont. Thats all due to how u raise them and their bluffing phase. My IRN lost his/her tamness (Sorta) but is still fun to have around and we both have our moments. I love my IRN and I wou...

Oh god.... that's reassuring. lol The challenge talon gives me is my fault. I didn't give Talon the attention he needed when he was going through his bluffing phase... So as much as I know he still is... I've heard of reports of ringnecks bluffing phases lasting anywhere from a few days to a few mon...

Well now when I think about it... My Talon does the same thing. He/She will attack it foot, but I think its a game more for them because Talon will not draw blood on itself or even injure itself.
