senegal

I'm having the hardest time deciding which to choose! I have criteria in mind: -playful/fun/clowny -cuddly/likes to be touched -not terribly shrill (my husband minds more than I do) -likes to spend a lot of time with their human (I want to devote a lot of attention/time) Does anybody have...

Me and my Sennie get on very well. He is probably closet to me then the rest of my family in the house. Although today he just seems to hate me. He wants to be on me but whenever I allow him to he just bites, like attack bite which draws blood, I tell him 'NO' and put him down for 3 minutes, but...

Kippy has picked up a new morning routine, and its a cute one! When my fiance gets up he always uncovers her and moves her near the bed so she can see me until I decide to drag my butt out of bed. For the past three days Kippy has been climbing down from her perch, on to the bed, and working her...

I remember reading a recipe which was similar to this a few weeks before my Senegal came into my life, but for the life of me I could not find it again. It had looked amazing and I could not get it out of my head. So a few days ago I decided to improvise with what I remembered of that recipe and...

I came back here to let everyone know how life has been since I brought a Senegal parrot into my home, and also to give perspective Senegal owners another opinion on the species. When I was looking for information on Senegals I found the wide representation of opinions towards the little parrots...

Hello, I'm a first time bird owner and was given my beautiful Sammy yesterday. He has a history of biting but he was very nice when we first met him. He is 7 years old and never took a liking to anyone except the woman who cared for him and we believe he 'imprinted' on to her. I don't understand...

Hi, So on my quest to find the right bird species for me, I found that I had a few questions regarding Sennies. What is their personality like? I have read that they go through a hormonal phase at 1-2 yrs (understandably this will not put me off the species) but I've also seen that they can...

The bird store we got our first two conures (the first one dying due to heart defect) has a weaning senegal parrot on reserve for us. The senegal is kept in another room with different parrots to separate it from the available stock. Every day or every few days we've been going there to interact...

Hi, I'm (hopefully) getting a bird in January but have a few questions! I'm looking at Eclectus & Senegal Parrots as well as Indian Ringnecks. My family are excited about the idea of me having a bird but I am concerned that I may be moving to London in August next year. I am hoping to take my...

Hiya! I just joined today :D I have a four year old Senegal Parrot, I was actually confused to whether to join a dog forum instead.. My Sennie acts more of a dog that a parrot :p Hahaha

Hello Everyone! :D I have a 4 year old Sennie. We have a strong bond, but only if my hair is down... Weird right?! Whenever I tie my hair up he knows that it is me, but he would come to me attack me or sit on me all puffed up squinting at me (which looks like he is giving me evils) and...

Hello again everyone! I posted about a month ago with worries about our new Senegal Parrot Kippy. Needless to say she is my baby, and is a welcome member of the family now. I am looking to upgrade her from her slightly small cage, but I am having issues making the decision about which one!! I...

greenyellow: green::greenyellow: Hello GROUP ::green::green2: I'm MATTHEW Wise from st Charles Michigan. I have two ring neck Parrots and one Senegal Parrot I love them all. Im always interested in learning new ways to keep them all happy and be efficient at the same time. I keep my birds...

And its a biggun! Yesterday me and my fiancee purchased our first bird, she is a two year old Senegal Parrot. We bought her from a local bird lover who was selling his five birds in order to be able to focus on his bible studies. She is lovely and had a wonderful, sweet, comical personality. Her...

This is our Senegal georgie

Have a male (green) and female (palid green) Quaker. Bought a Senegal, Rudy, a week ago yesterday from a very reputable parrot shop. Rudy is 3 months old and was caged with his brother at the store. Thought I'd share an experience since a search a few days ago brought me to this website. We...

I joined this forum to ask for advice regarding my 13 year old senegal parrot. I've had Emi since I was 11 years old, and she is very important to me. My parents have been looking after her since I moved out. Not only do I miss her and want to be able to see her more regularly, but my parents do...

Hi, I have a 6 year old Senegal that I adopted from a family 3 years ago. He's quite a character and although can be very loving, has an awful temper and can be extremely violent. My hands are in agony from the horrendous attacks that I get. So I'm trying to start from scratch with training him...

Hey everyone, This is the first time I'm posting here. First time poster and first time parrot owner. My Senegal has peeling brown spots on its beak along with a brown spot on the front-middle of its beak. What could the problem be? I'm not sure if I should bring him (or her?) to the vet...

My name is Lee & I'm a retired RN (due to brain injury). I live in Kirkland Washington which is just outside Seattle. I'm married...for the 2nd & last time :) I moved here from Denver to marry my husband whom I met online in a forum dedicated to current events & especially hot topics...

I have a new Senegal parrot that we just got yesterday. She was previously owned by a very sweet lady who said she is very tame and has never bitten anyone. We got her all set up in her cage yesterday and I took her out today and she bit me really hard and broke the skin in four places. She bit...

Okay so heres the thing... I really want a senegal, but I have 2 cats...? One is a successful hunter, the other...not so much. But I think they would both stare at the bird and freak her out? Has anyone had any experience with birds and cats living in harmony? I don't want the bird to be...

Recently, I adopted a 7 year old male Senegal Parrot from a couple who were unable to care for all of their birds. He is in great health and I've had him for going on 2 months now. The lady told us he was kind of picky with who he trusts and likes to interact with. When I was at their house...

This is Buddy the Senegal. We hand-raised him for a couple who live in Ana Cortes, WA. Buddy was hatched on 3/4/2009. He and AR-B were traveling buddies.
