I have a pair of African cockatoos, two months back they laid 2 eggs,
after about 15 days I saw about 4 more eggs. A month passed by, the
parrots took turns on incubating them but no sign of chicks yet.
After a month, to my shock and bewilderment I saw there were about 12

started doing it a few days ago.  Seems to be fine otherwise, still
eating and lots of vocalizations, just always holds it's head sharply
tilted to one side.  Suggestions greatly appreciated.
thanks

Was watching a show on Animal Planet. What caught my eye was they were
working with people who had "problem pets" and I spotted an African Grey.
They were calling it a "Grey Macaw". I was only really paying attention when
they had the bird on, so I missed a lot of it, but it ...

Hi, I'm looking for a nice cage for a pair of zebra finches.  In
particular, I'd like a cage that prevents most of the seed waste from
flying out.  Do any of you have any recommendations?  I'm wondering if
one of the Hagen Vision cages would be the best bet.

I bought this TW8060CORN-1 Crazy Corn Original at Birdalog.com.  I cooked
the mixture and tasted it out of curiosity and it is red hot. I mean really

Has anyone used this and, if so, any ideas from where it can be ordered? My
concern is this: bacteria and the pureness of it.

i would like to show you my new pictures of Birds.
There are some very nice Photos of a lot of differents Birds.

hi, sorry for my english :)
We've found a little "house sparrow",  nine days ago, it's learning to fly,
and  it's eating fine, however it did`nt eat by itself. And we see that it's
losing its down. Do you know if it's normal? Where can we found information

Well, my mustached parrot came home yesterday!  We are probably going
to name him/her "Cisco."  He has yet to make any sounds, LOL, but I am
sure this will change eventually.  He seems to be settling in well, but
I have one question: he won't take food treats from our hands.

How long is it safe to leave fresh food out for a Parakeet?

Hello, I've never posted so apologies if this isn't done properly.  I
know nothing about birds and have been "quaker-sitting" for about 7
months now.  She seems healthy and happy in general but today I saw
something odd and unusual... she was slowing crossing her perch back

Herb Salad for birds is incredible.  I have been shocked by how much
the Gouldian's LOVE this product. Besides eating it so quickly, the
other issue I noticed was how their droppings changed, for the better!
