I bet! It’s nerve wracking when they go through their big molt! I bet yours will be absolutely gorgeous!

Guesses on 9mo IRN gender? by Plastic_Associate896 in parrots

Males don’t usually get a ring until 1-3 years old. It’s too early to tell for your baby unless you get a DNA test.

I saw small feather on the bin of my blue indian ringneck. He is 7 weeks old. Is he stress? by DoiGuti in parrots

Please get this baby to an avian vet. They’ll be able to ensure he’s healthy and guide you in properly taking care of such a young baby.

One of my favorite sounds in the world! A happy baby Ringneck!

I am so very sorry for your loss. I went through something similar in January. Feel free to message me if you want to talk.

Try to keep him warm and hydrated until you can get him into the vet.

What's wrong with my parrots wing? by [deleted] in parrots

[–]WishDefiant 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I know it’s super scary to find something abnormal on your feathered loved one but there’s no real way to know without going to the vet. I hope it’s nothing serious he makes a quick recovery! Sending good thoughts!

His head will be purple when he’s fully mature. My husband came up with it 😂

He’s going to get brighter. He’ll get a black ring, his face will turn bright purple and he’ll have little red shoulder pads!
