Is there a visual difference between ino & NSLino?
I just traded my pet green for a mean lutino. I am trying to figure out if it is SL lutino or NSL lutino (as I found there is a difference in ringnecks) Is there a visual difference? or can it only be found by breeding? I will be pairing him with a blue hen (background unknown) or possibly a pale bl...

baldness
I'm actually thinking more on the line of mal nutrition, especially with the conditions he was living in. Cockatiel dander can affect the respiratory system of other species as well as the fact he had no sunlight. I know he does not have mites as I looked him over and also, I use AIL regularly. I ha...

I am not sure if it was hpysical plucking, he was in a small cage at the back of a shed filled with cockatiels, The lady told me $40 and before I could answer she jumped down to $25 and that's what I got him for. Since I brought him home he has been on the back patio with plenty of fresh air and lig...

Do babies constantly go yip yip yip yip yip?
I had sold a baby to a lady who said she was a very experienced hand feeder (but with smaller birds). It's been just over a week now and she just called me and asked if it is supposed to be constantly going "yip yip yip yip yip". I heard it on the line and it would go yip several times, ta...

some are eating well
There was one that never really gave me a problem, now there is one that still throws the food back at me. I use a curved syringe, and with everybody else, I can calmly slide it dwn the throat so we avoid any in the air tube (can't remember the word for breathing food). Hopefully though, my rubber c...

I have 2 female MPs
I just recently got 2 female MPs in a trade, they are the green chested variety and I am looking for a male or something (by something I mean either sell the females I have or trade one for a male) If anybody is interested, they're only a year and a half old but I don't think they would make good pe...

pic of babies (if it works)
This is 4 IRN babies, all from the same clutch...notice how the one is absolutely bald and one cockatiel about the same age. I have done gavage feeding on parakeets from day one (normal tiny parakeets) up to conures and even doves, chickens & pigeons http://crazyparrot.com/images/albums/NewAlbum...

They're better
I noticed the forum was down, after I posted the problem, a good friend of mine, who has been breeding cockatiels for god knows how long, told me to get some cortisone cream and massage it onto the foot. Well I did that (cortaid with aloe) every 6 hours or so for 2 days and then he said to stop wit ...

HELP!, their feet are going to fall off
OK, I seriously need some help. My first time breeding IRN, and when I ordered the bands the chart shows 9, 9.5 & 10 Well I chose 9.5 seeing as my breeder's legs seem rather skinny. I usually handle babies on a regular basis, and I was told to leave the babies alone or the parents might kill the...

line breeding
I show cockatiels, that is my main bird, and we linebreed for quality. With the cockatiels, you generally do cousins, aunts & uncles or step-siblings (you have a grand champion...Bird A...you first breed bird A with bird B, then you take bird A and put it with bird C..., you hold back the best M...

clipped or not
To clip or not to clip, that is the question people like to ask...a lot. If I am breeding a bird, I do not clip the wings due to balance and fertility, but if a bird is not being bred, I will clip the wings so it does not fly away. Also, when I am hand feeding babies, I do not clip the wings until ...

I have a few breeding color questions.
Hi, I have a few pairs and I was wondering what I might get. Pair #1 is a green male with a blue female, they recently hatched 4 babies, but they have no colors yet. I know nothing of the pair's past. Pair #2 is a white hen with a green male, this green male is the brother to 2 lutinos, one of which...
