baby

Hi guys! So Remi my 3.5 month Eclectus has been home now for almost 3 weeks. It's clear she is beginning to settle and relax, with lots of calm and contented behaviour. I am interested in getting her used to the idea of training, even if it's just "clicker charging". At the moment though...

Hi everyone! I am new to this thread and usually trying to find answers looking through old threads, and i finally figured out how to ask questions on here lol. I recently bought a 7 week old catalina baby macaw :red1: and love him. I have had him for one week now and have been hand feeding him...

After 15 years of loving a "mighty big" little Pacific Parrotlet, my husband and I have adopted a "mighty bigger" Hahn's macaw. I have to say that he's definitely a different animal, for sure. We've bonded with him quickly since adopting him on Labor Day weekend. He's now about 5.5 months old...

This is my love bird, he is 4 months and we are best buds

Hi im Manuel from Peru :white1: my mom just found a baby parrot it is kinda shaky we dont know how many weeks old it is and have only fed him little bits of ripe platain i have been looking in youtube and found this video of different lentil rice and flour i could feed it How to Make Healthy...

People from another thread about my baby macaw asked to keep them updated with pictures, so i i thought i'd make a special thread for this. Maybe some people are interested :D In this thread i'll be posting pictures about my baby macaw and how he's growing! This is Jack / Jacky (depending if...

Hello! I'm a new owner, and I've recently gotten my first bird. She's a pineapple green cheek conure and was hatched on April 1st. I met her before buying her and she was very curious and bubbly. The first few days home with me she was very sweet. When I'd take her out she would be calm and...

Hello all! My name is Chanelle. Me and my boyfriend picked up our 6 week old Green Cheek Conure yesterday, and even though we did research for almost a year beforehand, I'm finding myself asking a lot of questions. Raffi is still being hand fed, although he's not eating the same way that I...

I just got a 8 week old sun conure and he makes this noise he makes light barking 3 times. It's like very soft tone when around him idk if he's annoyed or happy please help and how long till he learns to perch and other stuff please help me

Hello everyone - Seeking some general guidance on how to "tame" my new baby. She is a ~4-5month of Solomon Island Eclectus that was hand-fed. She was very cuddly/tame with her owner. However, she's bitey with me. I brought her home Tuesday afternoon last week and she appears to be settling well...

Hi y'all! Oké, so we have gotten a little situation on our hand. About 4 weeks ago our lovebird couple, Kiwi and Mango, got their first baby. Kiwi had 5 eggs and 2 hatched. Sadly the second baby died within 2 days. They didn't feed him and me and my husband are very inexperienced with baby...

Just got an INR last day from some one. he is active and teases my African Grey too much my stealing his food from his cage. He is loosing his feathers may bi because of Molting or may be because of the food previous owner is giving him i.e sunflower seeds only.

I don't know if it was a good decision or not, but he's only 5 weeks old. I thought I was going over to buy a weaned bird, but apparently the lady I met from the internet was selling 5 week old love birds. He can barely walk; let alone flap his wings. I call him "he", because I have no idea what...

Kermit had quite the little adventure today. My mom and I were heading down to our old house (about 30 min away) so she could go out to lunch and I could say hi to my grandmother. I included Kermit on this expedition so he could visit my grandmother (she loves birds and watched after my...

New to the forum here and just saying hello to everyone. My name is Kavish and I'm located in Trinidad and I'm the proud new owner of two Amazons. Not particularly sure what sub species they are as I received them from a cousin who migrated and had recently acquired them. The larger of the two...

what food can i offer a baby lovebird (3 weeks) that i am currently co-parenting? i want to offer food while they're out of the nest socialising, to help with the bonding process? thanks

I live in Northern Thailand and recently purchased my first bird; an Alexandrine Parakeet Lutino. The breeder was not so clear on the exact age of the bird and I was wondering if someone could give me an estimate (+/- 1 week?) based on these photos.

My first parrot was a huge Congo African Grey I got when I was 12. When I went to college, my parents rehomed him against my wishes and knowledge. Fast forward many years and my husband and I have fostered many birds, including a plucking CAG (among many other species.) My husband decided it's...

Baby Green Conure Nibbling? I got a Green Cheek Conure from my local pet store today, the day we brought him home he was great, very tame, calm, not panting, etc. Today in the morning when we tried to pet him he started like licking our fingers? He was not biting, but instead licking/touching...

Sunny in the kitchen.

Sunny first day at home (1st Nov 2015), he is around 10 weeks old.

ready for feeding

Baby Alex 4 weeks

Last night my little Green Cheek Conure passed away suddenly with no warning at all. He was less than 3 years old. I spent the day playing with him, he did his usual chirping, biting, playing, and eating. Nothing abnormal at all. In the evening when he was in his cage resting I was in my...

Are there any budgie breeders in california? I really want a hand fed baby budgie and I had budgies before so I am experienced!:greenyellow:

I need help, I have been looking and looking for any tame non abused CAG to adopt. I would love to have a baby, I really don't even care. I am married and have been married for 21 yrs. I am a mom with 4 kids, 2 in college and 2 in high school. No one has time for me anymore, so now I want to...

Hello everyone, I got my first parakeet on July 4th but my parakeet is still afraid of me and I'm kind of afraid of my parakeet too. I really really want to bond and train my parakeet but it's really hard for me to that. Is there anything I can do? I also had an incident one time when I put...

We got our first cockatoo who is just 3 weeks old today and tried feeding baby bird formula for the first time. At one point he turned his head and some of the feed got spread over his eye. I wiped it immediately but he started making a fist with his toes. After a couple of minutes he went back...

Hi everyone, recently purchased an adorable baby cag ,Sora, from a breeder that I often purchased my gccs from. We were told Sora hatched 3-3-15. When we first got him he was eating some sprouts just fine but a friend at my usual bird shop told me that he was still too young and needed...

So my mother informed me today she reserved a sun conure little one for me. A local family owned shop has 3 babies that are being hand fed by them, they have been hand raising birds for years, in hopes that I can start an early bond with it, then hopefully, after DNA sex test, possibly become...

so I kind of don't want to screw this up. I bought him yesterday, and he had a tough trip on the way home. Pretty much a 1.5 hour bus ride in a tiny box, because I've never been there and I had no idea it was going to take so long. Although he seems unusually quiet (I've yet to hear him make...

I put a deposit on a baby pineapple GCC at a local pet store before he was even a month old and have visited him every day since! His name is Kiva and he is a brat, but he is my brat <3. I am so excited for him to be weaned soon so that I can play with my little feathered nugget all day long...

For several months now, I've been seriously contemplating which species of parrot to get as my final flock member (I have a flock of 6 small birds currently). After much deliberation, I've decided that an African Grey is the perfect fit for my flock and my lifestyle. I've looked into rescuing an...

So I previously mentioned I had a baby girl kakariki on reserve from the breeder but the last group of babies didn't work out for me due to time constraints. But so it looks like this will be the bunch that I will, more likely than not, be getting a new baby from once weaned. The chicks are only...

Hello, a breeder recently sold me a 5 almost 6 week now old quaker baby, yes it is unweaned and yes i do realize this was a dumb dumb part on the breeder, but no worries i have experience. My question is... I am trying to slowly start weaning my baby after feeding it formula for a...

Hi, please can someone help me, I have a baby lovebird thats supposed to be abt 5weeks old. I've had it for 3 days now but its like a zombie. Its just frozen, if I place it somewhere just stays there frozen doesn't even blink. Is it just afraid or is it sick. Even when I leave it in its box for...

What kind of lovebird is this? Hello fellow lovebird owners! I have a new baby lovebird named Jax who is 7 weeks. When we got him, it just said blue peach face lovebird, but can anyone please identify my lovie and give me a specific name as to WHAT KIND of lovebird he is? I attached a photo of...

… but I saw this young women with 4 kids posting on CL over and over about an IRN baby she couldn't tame and didn't have time for. First I didn't pay attention since IRN wasn't anything I was looking for, but seeing this frantic ad for the fourth time I picked up the phone and called her… She...

So excited. A local Wildlife Rescue has a very young conure that needs to be adopted. It's been nearly 2 months since my beloved Pritti passed over. I still miss him everyday. A Blue-Crowned conure might be coming home with me in two days. not sure yet, but I think he is about 4 or 5...
