My pair are currently in a flight cage. I think this is a bit small by the time the nesting box goes in and potential for 6 more birds! So i'm doing a bit of a cage swap, which works well because the cage I'll swap them into has an optional partition in the middle. Offspring can be seperated into on...

I'm not sure on your question, sorry! But just saying that they are beautiful birds! Best wishes in finding answers!

I am going to add a nesting box in with my pair soon and was wondering whether anybody had tried Breeders Choice recycled paper kitty litter as nesting material? I have access to wood shavings also but wanted to find out about the kitty litter option first. It's chemical and additive free, odourless...

I had to introduce the IRNS a little earlier than intended. Tempe managed to poke her head through the cage bars of her cage so to avoid injury i put her in with Sano. They've been together a week or so maybe? And she still wont let him go near her. How long is too long for them to not get along? Sh...

Hi! I have two IRN's housed seperately. This week I have acquired a cage large enough to fit them both plus potential chicks. It needs some maintenance before it is bird safe, so to get them used to each other I've put their cages side by side. Both have started odd behaviour since they've been next...

Hi guys! How are we all? :) Welll!! I have two IRN's, a green male named Sanozuke (Sano) and an albino (hopefully!) female named Tempe. They're caged seperately and as of late i've been searching for a cage large enough to accomodate them both with the possibilty of expanding the flock :D (if Tempe ...

Thanks Ellie! Good news all, I posted on my facebook page that I was looking for an aviary sized cage...Who said Facebook is all bad lol! My neighbour came running over saying he had a 1mx1m and 2m (ish) tall cage he was going to dump...So he gave it to me :D It's in great condition. Bit of rust on ...

Thanks guys, ideas for me to consider :) ellieelectrons: They will be aviary birds...I considered taming Tempe but she's viscious when you try touch her...However I purchased her originally to be a mate for Sano so that's still the plan :) I'm currently trying to track down a small aviary for the tw...

Thankyou kindly! I was hoping that would be the response, i'm not game enough to try holding her to remove the feathers until she's less bitey haha. Thanks

I have a green cock and an albino hen. They are currently caged seperately and I'm wondering what the safest way to introduce them would be. The cock is rather skittish and the hen loves me; aslong as i dont try to touch her lol she becomes quite snappy. I'm wondering if i introduce them and they be...

My ALbino has blue eyes also, with red pupil and orange skin surrounding. Plus orange feet. Very pretty, i think maybe it's normal though?? A photo of your lutino would be nice

I still haven't learnt this site fully yet, I couldn't see if there was a 'bird health' or medical section...so I apologise if this thread belongs in a different area! I have noticed that my albino IRN has (what i THINK is...) two massive blood feathers...one on each wing. I'm wondering, does the bl...

Love the bathtime photos, gotta love the wet birdie look.

For sure Sorry for the late reply, havn't been around lately! Will have to start posting more often and keeping up to date with Tempe and Sano

Ellie.

Thankyou Ellie!

Oh, by the way, the small cage is only temporary! Please don't think I would keep an IRN in a cage of that size permanently. She has lice so is quarantined from my other birds til they're gone.

How could anyone take a disliking to her and why have birds if they hate them?

I know right, i dont understand people sometimes.

Well done Mallykat, I knew you would find something in you price range. (bargain) :mrgreen: Very nice birdy. Just remember everything i said to do before introducing her/him to its mate. By the way thats a girl for sure, you can put it next to your male and your male should start to dance next to h...

here are a few more.

New IRN, not sure on gender yet but being referred to as 'she'. I thought albino, but the seller (whom had no idea on birds and hated them hence the sale) said she was purchased as a cremello, i'm not 100% on IRN mutations as yet. But she had $40 for a quick sale so i'm not complaining, i think she'...

Hi there are so many outcomes depending on what you pair him with so if you type in http://www.gencalc.com and go to the scientific name for Indian ringneck and use the calculator to see what you outcomes will be. Now just so you know green, violet and grey are dominant genes so there of spring wil...

Hi all! I'm currently the happy owner of a green cock, not sure of his correct mutation. Dunno whether he has any splits or anything. I'm curious as to what colour chicks he could produce to different coloured hens? I don't have a hen as yet, but before i start a search I'd love opinions on possible...

Oh wow, thanks! It makes 'some' sense...i have a small idea on mutation talk from budgies...but i never realised that IRN's were just as intriquite!

Thankyou for the link

Do you know much about cages?? I have a thread asking for advice on a certain cage...

hey guys :) I'm totally new to ringnecks. i owned a grey female 2 years ago, although she flew away :(...and just adopted a green male...all i know about IRN mutations is, green, blue, grey, albino and lutino haha! So you're both ahead of me! Is there a site or thread you could recommend to learn th...

I'm currently seeking a new cage for my budgies...this one comes in a pack of 2 cages, so i'm wondering, would this cage be suitable for an IRN? Sanosuke (my IRN) could use a new cage aswell, so if this cage is suitable I could purchase the twin pack and have one for my budgies and one for him. If n...

Thankyou so much for your reply :D I was wondering how long i should wait until i started, and how to go about it. I've been putting a small piece of apple and a small piece of banana in each day, so hopefully he's knowing that i bring fruits :lol: I will definately keep you posted. Where can i find...

Well, I picked him up! I took two photos, they are a touch blurry I apologise! Meet Sanosuke :) Tomorrow i'm going to revamp his cage and give him new perches - his feathers are damaged due to the perches being too close to the walls. http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g114/MallyKat/sanosuke.jpg htt...

Today i'm picking up a male IRN. Age is unknown, but i'm guessing he's atleast 3 as his ring seems mature. (the part he has atleast lol - part has been plucked by another bird). I guess, i'm wondering what the recommended course of action is in regards to taming him? He's not used to being handled ...

Hello everyone! I'm Mally, from Australia. I used to own a grey female IRN. Today i'm going to pick up a 'second hand' green male. He's been semi neglected, so it's my hope to give him a loving home that he hasn't known before :) Not sure yet what I will name him. He's missing feathers from the bac...
