HELP is my new jenday conure sick or just stressed!!?😖 hello everyone 🙌🏻 it’s been two days with me hand feeding my baby jenday he never even seems hungry I just type of force him on eating (his crop gets full every time) but what scares me is how quiet he is & rarely makes lowtone clicking...

My Pearly Conure (8 months) Jumped off the side of his cage today, and started to flap his wings trying to fly (When I got him from the pet store his wings were already clipped) hes done this a couple times before and he usually just slowly falls to the ground, steps up on my finger and just...

Hi guys, We have a beautiful 6 year old Congo African Grey name Vinnie who we’ve had since he was 12 weeks old. We’ve just moved house and it’s been the first big change for Vinnie that he’s ever really had other than staying with family while we’ve gone on holiday (which he’s always been...

Please help. I'm a very concerned bird mom. I myself am physically stressed about the well-being of my little baby. Dylan is a peach-faced lovebird I got at 5 weeks old, and hand-weened him on to a pellet diet. He got an infection at about 7 weeks, and I took him to the vet, had him on...

I got a new budgie 5 days ago and I’m new to owning birds. I’ve been keeping him on my desk, constantly showing him my hands and talking to him and talking to him while I clean/ refill his cage needs... I have two problems. He won’t take treats out of my hand or even stand on it, and he has a...

Hi folks. I came here a few months back for help and want to give an update in case it helps someone else. My Congo female started plucking her chest and stomach bald, sometimes causing bleeding wounds. I tried everything including Haldol, but she continued to get worse. Finally I figured out it...

So I'm looking for advice for the future with my green cheek conure, Haku. For some background, he is my ESA in college and as such lives in a dorm room with me and my roommate. Because we both are in the same room and are considered "homebodies", one/both of us are in the room all the time. As...

I've been having a really hard time lately, and the other day was the worst. I broke down crying and all, and I usually keep it in. Both of my parrotlets were around when I did. My parrotlet I've had for a while now doesn't seem phased and is fine, but my baby parrotlet I've had for a few months...

Hi, We found a featherless patch on our sun conure's back (behind the wings) full of blood. It seems he has been plucking but we have not seen him doing it or feathers. We took him to the ER when we saw it and they tested his blood and saliva and did not find anything, said it could be...

Well, I know I'm the millionth person to post about this, but I am just out of ideas to help Pepper with his feathers! He definitely has stress bars and I just don't know why. I can hear when he's grooming that he will get to the end of his feather and kind of chew it. I wonder if that has...

Hello! I just moved my Green Cheek Conure, Zuko, into a much larger cage then what he was in before, which I assumed hey he would enjoy this! but He has never really enjoyed being in any sort of cage but he has been not sleeping very much or even in his bed while in the new cage even though we...

My green cheek conure, Ducki, has been molting for what seems like forever. I am aware that birds should molt once or twice a year and sometimes it can last months, but I am pretty sure she has not gone out of a molt in years. She molts her tail and wings on a more usual schedule but her head...

I know everyone has different opinions about keeping a parrot clipped or not. I was faced with a dilemma as I am in the middle of a move that was not planned for. I didn't want to board my parrot as the last time I did he was really upset with me for days and I was not happy with the way they...

I took Morgan to the vet because he was having some diarrhea. They did a bunch of exams and drew blood. He hated being handled and SCREECHED AND CRIED when they held him in the towel. He was put on two medications for the diarrhea and they have to be given orally. When we got home he has been...

Hello, I have a one year old Sun Conure named Romeo and I am wondering if any of you out there of experienced this type of behavior due the bird being stressed? So starting on Monday I was feeding him a new type of food by Kaytee because Petsmart was out of his regular food (Kaytee Fiesta...

Hi there! I have two lovebirds that are currently living in a friend's house:rainbow1:, as I'm away in school and can not take care of them due to a not friendly pet apartment. My school program involves me to go on and off of school every four months- which leaves me with a dilemma... I would...

:) Hi all! You may or may not recognise me from the macaw forum as I am soon to be the proud owner of a Hahns macaw (Novemberish) and then a Blue and Gold or Greenwing Macaw (Aprilish) What I want to know - and I want to know it from the people who live with CAG/TAGs day in-day out, is what is...
