Re: Angry Ringneck!
Don't worry, I pop the kernels myself so I know that I know it's safe for him!! And uh oh! I didn't know kissing his belly was bad! This thing is, He will lower his head and ask for pets, I'll pat him maybe one or twice, then he gets angry and goes to bite me. I understand and retract my hand but he...

Re: Sushi & Boombox (siblings) are starting to talk at 7 mos
What smart babies! I know you must be happy!!! And since they're talking so early, that must mean that they're happy and comfortable. Don't they just have the sweetest voices? I've also figured out that they tend to talk more the warmer they are (remember, they come from tropical climates). My Blood...

Scarey BloodWing!
Sometimes, when my sister comes over to my apartment, she brings her dog. And upon getting my birth, I was terrified that her dog (a jump 2 year old Beagle) would kill or harm my Ringneck. Yet, whenever we meet- my bird LITERALLY chases my sister's dog around the apartment. And Shiloh (the beagle) r...

Angry Ringneck!
Hello! My baby Bloodwing will be a full 1 year old in February! It was fun! I am wondering how I can hand tame my baby? He lets me pick him up. He loves getting food and will even pry popcorn out of my fist. He takes food freely from me. But unfortunately, he will not me pet him. I cannot touch his ...

Re: Warming BloodWing
UV rays (ultraviolet rays) are usually absorbed by the melanin in the fur, skin or feathers. But in a creature with Albinism, UV rays can burn the skin, cause cancers and even blind the creature. A UV lamp uses a hot blue light to produce UV rays which could injure my birdy baby. So I can't use that...

Warming BloodWing
Heya There! My 9 Month Old Indian Ringneck, BloodWing is now preparing to go through a chilly winter with me here in Texas. She's fluffing up at night and covering her feet to stay warm but she still shivers and quakes from the cold. I won't buy her a heater because I know the fumes they give off ar...

Konbon Wa!!
Hello! My name is ChiMo! And my new baby's name is Bloodwing! He is a Albino Indian Ringneck that I bought from ABC Birds (a speciality birds store). I don't think he'll develop a ring, but I assume for the time being (until I figure out where to get a DNA kit) that BloodWing is male. He has a rathe...
