hey all,

i was just wondering if the color if an IRN beak resembles a feature of the bird. For example, the darker the beak is the healthier he is or he is more friendly .... random question :)
thanks

Hi, I just purchased a ringneck female off craigslist for 100. She wanted 150 but for some reason was anxious to get rid of this five year old beuty, to me that is. Anyway, my question is.....why is her beak black?

I just got a ringneck and it has a black beak also have you figured out why? and also is your bird healthy because i fear that the color of the beak might depend on how healthy the bird is.
