Pet Forum / Birds / Parrots / December 2006

My two CAGs really love to chew up their rope perches, making them useless
in no time. On average they destroy one rope perch a month each despite
having other perches (wood and cement), toys and foraging bowls in their
cages. I have a tremendous collection of those plastic screw ...

I have an African Grey and am interested in getting her a new cage. I'd
like to do some research on the Internet (look up companies and see
their products).  Recommendations and experiences please?  What should
I look for?

?he is only 1 year old
i got told pine nut's would stop him from plucking is this true i don't

Hey dudes new here! Looks kind of dead,do you cats talk or what? I just
bought a ten yr.old grey named Echo any info on the best ways to care
for her would be great!Been reading about them for a year but still
can't figure the little dudes out.

nearly had an accident with my tiel buddy tonight and it got me
thinking.
there is no pet ambulance service near where i  live and i cant count
on my vet to be reachable during the night.

I have a good collection of Parrot photographs and enjoy browsing parrot
photo sites - fascinated with them.  The parrot which I find absolutely
breathtakingly beautiful is the Scarlet Macaw, the Blue and Gold Macaw and
the Hyacinth(spelling?)...

Cutty (CAG 7yrs old) was clipped when I bought him.
I had a freind who works with birds give him a cut, but after a while I
decided to let them grow out. A couple of times when he crash landed he
actually bent a flight feather right at the base under the skin . It stuck

can any one please give me a site or tell me how to prepare and cook soaked
pulses for my CAG
thanks

What's with all the hating? Isn't this group about cockatiels? I just
joined, but I am thinking I came to the wrong place. The last few posts look
like they came from a cranky pre-schooler, complete with horrible spelling
and grammar. Why do parents allow young children to be ...

well and does that little hop the cock birds do. Now he is starting to grow
his mature tail feathers, they are coming in speckled like the juvenile and
hen feathers.
