Parrot people?

[Careym13]

Any other crazy parrot people on this forum? If so, what kind of parrots do you have? I've got Amazons, a few Macaws, Conures, several different African species and 2 Rose breasted cockatoos. Oh, and 2 Indian Ringnecks, can't leave them out!

I used to have Brotogeris jugularis, but the last one kicked the bucket a couple years ago. Then I took in a rescue blue crowned conure. I had him for a couple years and just recently had to have him euthanized. He was pretty old and was having trouble breathing due to a growth in his trachea. I'd like to rescue another hook bill, however, my life span is reaching the end, so I don't want to take on any more animals at this time.

I have a goffin cockatoo named peaches. He just learned I say "I love u"! He's been professing his love to everyone lol

 

[NicoleB26]

The rose breasted cockatoos are beautiful!! If I were to get another bird (which I'm not ) it would be one of those.

Rosie's are awesome for sure! Although I love all parrots, Rosie's are the only cockatoo I would own on purpose...lol

Not true Yvonne. Not True..........

You and I and my wife will have many place to go and many Torts to visit. So have another Parrot.

Dose the Love Bird and Parakeet count??

 

[Careym13]

Of course! I had two rescue budgies for a time. Now they live with a friend and her flock of budgies in a big flight cage.

OOH!!! OOH!!! ME! ME!

I'm a crazy parrot person. I work with all sorts of birds. I have a double yellow head, a harlequin macaw, and a medium sulphur crested cockatoo at the ranch where I work. I have a Mexican Red Head that lives at home with me, and I just bought a Jardine's parrot last week.

Jardine's are the best parrots ever. I raised and trained them all. Been wanting my own since 1990 when I first saw them, and finally got around to making it happen last week.

Here's my red head last year when I first got her. Had to finish hand feeding. She is now an amazing flyer. Straight up. Straight down. Corners and mid air direction changes and stops... Great fun!

Hey! C'mon. This is a family oriented site!


I think I have that same shower perch that your female is sitting on.

My Quaker parrot just died about a month or so ago. Around 28 years old. I have had parakeets, cockatiel, conures and then the Quaker.

Best conure names ever: "Earache" and "Deafness".

Oh I'm sorry. It's hard losing a pet.
