title says it all

Ok so I have some questions about jess We bought her as a 'pastel turquoise' (turquoise with blue wings and tail feathers) but she has since developed an interesting mutation. Her front and head remain turquoise, however her back and wings (*NOT the flight feathers) are blue, and her flight and tail...

Jayjess2013

she appears to be a normal green ring neck.

I have a hen named Jess, was purchased as a pastel turquoise but has since become green with a blue
back and olive purple coloured flight feathers

Jayjess2013

my bird jess had this problem for 10 months

Jayjess2013

if they are bonded and if they are in breeding condition, they should start breeding within the first 12 months of you having them.
there is a warning about breeding ringnecks in SA at the moment so have a read of that and be careful

Jayjess2013

My Ringnecks had babies

2 green with yellow wings what is that colour?
and 2 albinos

Jayjess2013

My 4 yr old needs a lady and he is a violet cobolt with a white head and a white tail

what colour hen?

Jayjess2013

here is my girl: she is apparantley a pastel blue this is an older
pic of her now she is turquoise with blue wings that a mottled green.

My male, is screaming like a high pitched yell when I leave him in the cage for too long. at first, I thought it was a mate finding call, but realised it is for attention. I have been covering the cage verytime he screams and taght him to whistke when he wants me but he still does not get all the ti...

Jayjess2013

My little girl Jess,

Has got

splayed legs
buldging eyes
missing tail
and an incorrect call

these have become prodominant since a few weeks after we got her. Her ''breeder'' is reluctant
to return our calls and see her aviary. thanks

Jayjess2013

oh no its not because of that, she does not want people to see her overcrowded aviary. Her house is an absolute mess, the hen I got from her has significant problems- but I was determined to save her. Apparantley the RSPCA have been called several times, but couldn't inspect because she was never ho...

Jayjess2013

Perhaps, but I searched in google violet cobolts and he looks like them all

Jayjess2013

thanks that was helpful- she is not a very good breeder, as she refuses to let buyers view the aviary

Jayjess2013

He is just a little darker- but not by much. I can put pictures tomorrow if I find the connection cord tonight. I have not yet heard back from the breeder, but I will tell you when he responds.

Jayjess2013

I think he may of molted before I got him- he already has adults plumage- budgie molts are really so ugually!

Jayjess2013

This made me cry... sometimes there is only so much we can do for our feathered babies, he has crossed the rainbow bridge in thought, that you did what you could for him- he'll be looking over you, rest assured that he thinks you didn't fail him. You could only joy to each others life in the time yo...

Jayjess2013

Is she a wild ringneck? These will be much harder to tame than a domesticated variety. Congrats for getting her off the roof and adopting her, maybe some pics can help the more experienced members help you out

Jayjess2013

Am I right in being told that males carry colour genes? This is what the breeder of my hen told me. She said the colour of the hen has no effect on the babies.

Jayjess2013

yes, they like the scenic area I surpose. Maybe I can get some pics up for you

Jayjess2013

Skye- I am yet to come into contact with the breeder, I have sent him a text and await a reply. Jay is just your average blue, I cant see any dark factors. I will put some pics when I find the connection cord for my iphone. Then I can give you all the info you need. Did sheyd say that he might be sp...

Jayjess2013

and it is also important, to offer sprouted seeds as clawnz mentioned. I give my guys the seed as sub diet, they have their daily vegetables and fruits, though I like to mix it up. Today mine are having granny smith appples honey dew melon peanuts mandarins and carrot Tomorrow they will have somethi...

Jayjess2013

alright I will take some photos today and post them tomorrow

Jayjess2013

I got a genetic test performed, but now I know what shey means. Its just that all the babies from this dad where normal blue, and the babies of those chicks where violet cobolt. I think I will have to revisit this breeder and see what he means, my friend also purchased a blue baby from this father a...

Jayjess2013

That's what I thought it be.... Males with squarer heads. This is confusing, like you said many websites boast females have rounder heads. I suppose every bird is different

Jayjess2013

maybe

Jayjess2013

mount Ainslie & mount Majura area Canberra- lots of forrest for them

Jayjess2013

my neighbour says from 3-8 yrs but recommended 3-6 yrs

Jayjess2013

well they are not bonded, and usually males tend to mature later than females, maybe when he's mature he will show intrest in her.

Jayjess2013

I got him when he was 10mnths- could he have moulted sometime then? he is 100% healthy, my neighbour is an avian vet, I can ask him to see if he is defficant

Jayjess2013

well the person that bred him the dad is violet cobolt and I also had tests done. Other babies from this cock that were blue had babies that were violet cobolt so...

Jayjess2013

I feed TRILL TM small parrot seeds, an Australian brand and this mix can be fed to all small parrots, the picture on the box has a princess, a peach face and a conure but my ringnecks like it, ingredients are: SEEDS: Sorghum, wheat, French white millet, dehulled oats, panorama, panicum, sunflower, o...

Jayjess2013

Hi paul, sadly I don't have FB- but the lady I got my hen from never let me see her aviary and the bird has several issues. Her name is Solvey and lives in Canberra- she does not even let buyers have one look at her birds and cages purchases so you can leave right away

Jayjess2013

I love king parrots, they are always in my yard, and will come eat straight out of our hands! My neighbour has a pair of dulited kings in an aviary out the back so I think that is what attracts them. I love their red and green colours, they are so graceful with their chime note sounds.

Jayjess2013

it was only last year, he started whistling he wolf whistles the ''come here'' whistle the '''swallow whistle'' and the ''congratulations'' whistle well I thought he would never learn, I was very happy when he said ''come here'' and ''hello'' but even prouder when associated the come here whistle wi...

Jayjess2013

shes pretty but looks so shaggy- I think she is a pied of some kind

Jayjess2013

mines 2 and never moulted too- he gets fruits, veggies, calcium and my neighbour said he might not have matured yet? He has a big black ring right around his neck so.....

Jayjess2013

yes very toxic, hi Im from Canberra!

Jayjess2013

perhaps he scraped it on the filing tool? Jay had a crack from I don't know what but h erecovered

Jayjess2013

instead of her back toe being straight when she stands flat, the curve inwards causing her to waddle, other than that, everything else is normal except her tail... when we got her it looked like it has literally been ripped out, her primaries flights are growing back, but no signs of a new tail yet ...

Jayjess2013

welcome any time

Jayjess2013

Hi Ellie, thanks for the help. We introduced them over a matter of weeks, in different cages. At first we put them where they could hear and see each other, but not go near each other. We gradually moved them closer, and took them out for human interaction at the same time because I worried jay woul...

Jayjess2013

Ours are out or day if we are home, at about 7:00am we uncover them and let them out to their fruits and veggies and playgym, then they go to bed when they are tired at about 8:00pm. When we are not home all day, we let them out for a while, put them back and take them out when we are home. On warm ...

Jayjess2013

so long as it is not treated, clean (washed) and not toxic to birds. Search for a list of toxic plants and grasses for birds and see. But it is probably fine, signs of toxidaty will be seen if the grass proves toxic. We pick grass from our yard and our 2 love it.

Jayjess2013

Hi! I my pastel blue hen is DNA tested, and has a very dark ring, she was sold to us as a girl, but we confused her for a male. The blood test did confirm that she was a hen- I think that some mutations may have a darker ring, the other thing that helped us identify was her behaviour and shape- roun...

Jayjess2013

if I breed my blue cock *splits for violet cobolt* and a pastel blue hen *have no idea of her family tree*

Jayjess2013

I don't have an awnser, but what I can say is that Jay loves iphones. He bites the case, and when you play music he does his little courtship dance. If you play other ringneck tones on the phone he gets cranky and tries to court me! lol

Jayjess2013

about 4 months back, we got Jess as a friend for our handraised boy Jay. She was advertised for $60 because she has a mangy tail. We got her off a breeder in Canberra, who has a 10 metre aviary. We never got to see the aviary, she had jess caged ready to collect that evening. She said she had like 1...

Jayjess2013
