Archimedes
Archimedes can do many tricks such as placing coins into a cup, turning around, waving, talking on command, and playing fetch. He enjoys talking and can say many things. Here are just a few of the things he says: 1) What are you doing Archimedes, huh? 2) What’s the matter? 3) Good boy, good parrot 4) Come here, come here, and 5) hello. The list could go on and on. During his last vocabulary count, he clearly says about fifty words. Archimedes did go through a bluffing stage (a stage of biting); however, it shortly passed. Every week he impresses me and he is such a smart bird. He can escape from his cage no matter how I try to keep the doors locked. Archimedes also enjoys a variety of foods. Did I mention I own a piglet too! This bird will eat anything I offer him. I can’t think of anything he does not like, except for potatoes! This parrot eats pellets, vegetables, fruits, and seeds. During the day, Archimedes has a special flight aviary for exercise and sunshine. Unfortunately, I have to keep extra security in my yard—all my ringnecks were stolen, including his father. Archimedes is currently working on flight commands with a leash.

Archimedes
is a male Indian Ringneck. He was born May 7, 2004. Before I
acquired him, I purchased a breeding pair of ringnecks. The
breeding pair produced three eggs and all three hatched. I decided
to keep one, which turned out to be my beloved Archimedes.
