Look at what Y gave me!!! He talks, and screeches. He's an Australian Parakeet. So much fun!
OMG! I had the totally wrong information! Thanks Tom, I lost my computer thing so I couldn't research him. Home now and obviously computer is working. I really appreciate you correcting me. I want to hand tame him and make a nice companion. It really helps to know his correct species. I'm glad you knew.That is an Indian ring neck. Not from Australia. Just thought you'd like to know...
Very nice birds. Congrats. Looks like a healthy little one.
They're a lot of fun to have in your house...you'd be surprised how interactive they really are!So beautiful!!!! Makes me want one!!!!
I'm sure he will be ok. They do go through an adjustment period, but it should be temporary. How long have you had him?Well, he liked me at Y's house, but now he calls me over to him, then turns his back on me. I hope it's just a period of adjustment. I worry about him.
Yeah he's still adjusting, that can take several weeks. Try not to worry...if he's eating that's an excellent signAbout 24 hrs. He was so affectionate to me at Y's, now he'll call me, and when I go to him he starts mumbling and turns his back on me. He hates me! And I'm worried about him. He is eating tho.
I'm kinda wondering if they are smarter than us, and they just play us. Blue calls me, until I go to the cage, then he turns his back on me, and laughs under his breath. I'm going to buy him some chew toys and a swing tomorrow, maybe I can make his cage more comfy for him.
