I'm really happy for her and proud. She's come so far! It was just so random just took an almond from me but still screamed in my face ha! Now shell take anything even won't wait for me to put it through the bars.

lola13

Good sites! I made one out of raffia. Turned out good my macaw took it for himself!

lola13

Lola is really an untame birdie. But for the past week she's been taking food from my bf and mine fingers. Sometimes snappy sometimes gentle. I'm really proud of her for coming so far!

lola13

Hey! Any crafy people out there that make their own boxes,balls or baskets out of willow,cane,raffia or any material? I can't find any small boxes,baskets or balls online or in store and believe me I've looked. Ill find ones that are treated or got metal(fake metal) to hold them together. If anyone ...

Vittacritter is a parrot safe dye for toys etc,its only in America.

lola13

I would use it if my IRN liked it as treats or in her foraging toy.

lola13

Lola whistles and kisses. Shell meow like she's saying hello. She's only 13 months old.

lola13

Mine is green with black and a light blue ring around the black.

lola13

If its completly dry yeh, be no danger. I've seen You tube videos that people have let their birds play with their tongues. Can't be to careful!

lola13

I'd be careful kissing my birds,hate for them to get a fright and bite my lip. Not to mention human saliva is a danger to birds,reguardless to clean teeth or not.

lola13

What a handsome bird!

lola13

I never really thought they were till you wrote that. My irn loves sweetcorn,grapes,strawberries all very sweet

lola13

Lola came to me clipped,I let her feathers grow out. I don't like clipping. All doors and windows and curtains are closed and I don't even answer the door if my birds are out. I call through the mailbox. I'm a bit stressed with my birds safty, I don't trust anyone around my birds but me. I have even...

lola13

Oh that's the same lady that sells Vittacritter. She's replied to my email said she posts to the UK. I think she's busy as I've not heard from her in a week. Going to chase it up this weekend

lola13

Oh thanks! Had a read of it, gives some good information.

lola13

It took my Lola a few months to be herself now everyday all day we get screamin,clicking,wolf whistling and meowing!

lola13

Lolas just started screaming in our faces then before wouldn't move-i think with her its dominance and she's getting abit of a attitude.

Maybe He's fluffing his feathers to appear bigger and scarier to you?

lola13

I don't know if I'm posting in the right place but Food dye is a household product. I'm not going to name the 3 Food dyes I have read up ALOT on them(I don't want to get myself into trouble) Certain ones contain E numbers which research has shown has caused cancer,tumours'rashes'ashtma to name a few...

lola13

He sounds like he's doing it as a way of telling you not to come closer. My Lola is not tame she's now 12-13 months old. My Lola will fluff her feathers up and scream in my face if I stand to close to her. It's a new thing though. With the diet why not get some stainless steel skewers and hang all k...

lola13

Well I've brought some 100% natural dye. It's got E numbers in them which I don't know if they are toxic or not. It says 100% natural so they should be okay? Also I'm watering down the dye I don't know if that makes a difference. I've read people use Wilton dyes which contains sugar which would make...

lola13

Haha god I'm dumb,forgot I'd already posted. I'm getting such a bad memory!

I hear Kool aid but again its something that I havnt seen in the UK,gr!

I don't know what toy places use to dye their wood its akways so deep and vivid!

lola13

What are you guys best tips for deep colours with dying wood?

I know some use Vitacritter but I can't find it on Amazon.co.uk So its got to be Uk based food colouring sites.

I've been on Wilton and Klassicool websites I've looked up and any reviews on them?

Thanks in advance!

lola13

Parrots are very clever, you've got to be one step ahead of them! My macaw learnt in two days screaming gets no attention from me. If he wants me he talks.

Have you got a shower perch for him? I've seen lots of people with them.

lola13

The vet said it was his liver malfuntion. She made it clear it was the breeders fault not mine as I blamed myself straight away. She said for the signs he was showing he was sick for along time but couldn't keep it hiden anymore. Breeder compansated my money back offered another one first which I re...

lola13

Haha! I can't even grow vegetables at work! But ill have a look on here for sprouting. I think Lola might like it and I have a foraging toy in mind to use. This is the idea I took from:http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=parrot+jelly+cups&safe=off&prmd=ivns&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X...

lola13

Hey,
Thanks!

lola13

Oh,I know. I havnt been on here as I completly forgot I had wrote something on here. And another member(can't remember their name) pointed out not many people post on here. But when I did come back on it seemed to be tons of threads to sit through and read. It just annoys me and is sad when people j...

lola13

I tried sprouting nothing happened ha I'm crap at it!
I still give her veg and fruit on a skewer as she does eat it when its on there so she's got two and I alternate. Today its corn,apple,blueberries and broccoli,carrot.

lola13

Sounds like they might want to have a bath to!

I can watch a birdie having a bath for hours esp when my macaw dances and sings.

lola13

Hello everyone! I don't think I have ever posted on here and I feel I need to, to introduce myself! I'm not new to the parrot world, I've been handraising and owning all kinds of parrots and Australian wildlife since I was 9 years old. I'm a first time IRN owner though and I'm having a great time wi...

lola13

I am the one that posted this thread. And yes'its been very sad. My avian vet is 3 hours away god wish it was 3 mins away! I don't have to explain what happened it was the breeder giving me a very sick bird and not telling the truth. If people have something to say about it I appreciate a private me...

lola13

I've made birdie bread a few times never got ate not even touched and I've made mashes before and still never touched. Lolas not a great forager to be fair I made a toy for her while she was watching put her fave nuts in. Leaving the top of so she could smell the nuts even poked a few and had them h...

lola13

My juices always turn out to be smoothies. My own I never add milk just a bit of natural yogurt. It would be all safe bird food. I have been doing a chop for 3 months now pellets (3 kinds),seed,veg and fruit with some cooked brown rice or pasta. My IRN will pick the seeds out eat a bit of veg/fruit ...

lola13

Can I give my IRN freshly homemade with parrot safe fruit and vegatable smoothies and juices? Just thinking as it would be a great way to get more healthy food into them in a way it is fun. I'm having a hard time giving both my IRN and macaw fruit and vegetables anyway I know my macaw would love it....

lola13

We put the radio on smooth which is old songs nothing to dancy of heavy and she sings along. But she's only loud when were home I've never heard her once being loud when I've been walking home and she can't see me. Oh can they have that tea? I wouldn't know how to give it to her.

lola13

I've stopped my macaw screaming for attention but my IRN is proving more difficult!

lola13

Aww,such a cutie. Definitely looks like it'll be blue! Keep interacting and I'm sure the bond will grow and it'll keep growing all its life. I'm a first time irn owner and I've had my Lola for 7months she's untame but I wouldn't have her any other way ill be honest I do wish shed let me pat her and ...

lola13

Lola has that rubber toy she's got two ha! She looooves them esp when there's jumbo lollipop sticks she's got a thing with nibbling at them into balls and chucking them around the place. I was thinking of getting the foraging buffet ball the one that hangs from the top. Sometimes the acrylic toys ar...

lola13

My lola seems to scream more when we are out of the room. Ill only call back if she wolf whistles,kisses,clicks or meows. And it can go on for a long time calling to eachother. Its all really started including the flying of now since my other irn got put to sleep. She's desperatly trying to get my m...

lola13

This sounds very familar to my female irn. She's 13months old and I'm sure she's trying/starting to talk. But she screams a lot from as soon as her cover comes of till about 7pm. She's got a lot of toys aswell which get switched and a lot of brought and diy foraging toys. She's got herself a new ful...

lola13

My two are now starting to go on the bottom of the cage to play should I put some foot toys on there for them?

lola13

He's been not mites can't find any on him. Said if he's eating and playing which he is I've had him a few days and already destroyed a toy hell be fine.

I'm hoping he settles down as everytime I put my hand in to put toys or food in he goes nuts

lola13

Ill have a look. When I get to a computer. I know there's so much I want for my birds!

lola13

Oh is it like sisal rope? I thought of your idea but I've seen these http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=mural+toys+for+parrots&tbm=isch&gl=uk&tab=wi&hl=en&sa=X&as_q=&nfpr=&spell=1&ei=SdYJUpziJOuQ0QX4qoHgAQ&ved=0CAYQvwU But a bit smaller for both of them. So they...

lola13

Hmm what's jute? But I never thought of that idea!

lola13

When I have gone through the quarintine period I'm wanting to put my new IRN in with Lola with a divider in the middle. But I'm worried they might bite eachothers toes so I was thinking of putting persplex in but I'm worried they might think its not there and fly into it resulting in injury. So my q...

lola13

I know I need to take him to the vet which I am Monday but I just want peoples opion so I can ask my vet different things. My IRN cam to me last night yes I know he might still be iffy and scared so not wanting to eat. But he has a small hole in his beak and can't hold on to his perch right. He's th...

lola13

I willing brought a IRN that wasn't tame. Though the ad said it was(yes,I'm kicking myself!) I was very intimated by the breeders. They gave me their number(invaild) and so is the email. Question is if I can't sell him on can I put him in my cage that divides with my other ringneck? They have alread...

lola13

I posted a simalar thread. My Lola is 11months came to me at 6months untame. She still is untame. I was told to get foraging toys for her. She also will sit and scream in turn makes my macaw scream. I found a good toy that will keep her busy for sometime esp if she sees her fave treats in it. Its ca...
