  1. Hi I want to buy a parrot, the breed thats available here is the common wild parrot which is caught and sold…. but i wonder whether it ll be tame ……like will it ever be friendly….or would it fly away the moment the cage is opened! How should i choose a parrot and how can i make it friendly…… what to feed?
    I am from India…… Its not illegal unless it is some rare species……. I am talking about the common green ones which we see outside on a common day! And could u tell me how to clip the wings?

  2. wild caught parrots are not tame and very nervous if you acquire one as young as possible there is a good chance it will tame if you persevere you might be best having its wings clipped until its tame cos once you let it out it wont want to go back to its cage as for feeding just go to your nearest pet store and ask for a good quality parrot mix it is not expensive and all parrots love most kinds of fresh fruit

  3. Last Sunday My frnd had brought a pair of Green Parrot
    He is very upset has his parrots are not drinking water

    Due to this he is worried whether with out drinking water will his pets will be in problem or not

    can you please guide him

  5. I got a ring-neck a few days ago. She is still a very young and has been hand-raised. But she is acting like she has never been touched before. When i try to get her out she runs away and screams and bites. and she doesn’t seem to want to leave her cage at all. I have been reading parrot training guides and they all say to make coming out of the cage fun, but i don’t know how because she won’t even eat treats from my hand. Please help??!!!

  6. Your problem is that she is a Ring Neck. They are not parrots, they are parakeets which automatically makes them less human friendly. However, I have seen plenty of Ring Necks that can be handled and that are very docile. All you have to do is constantly play with her against her will until she decides that you are not a threat to her. As soon as you stop handling her for a certain amount of time she will test you, but don’t let the bird control you or you will lose control of her. Use gloves if you have to.

  7. Where can i find a jungle game where a plane had crashed, and you had to try and escape. You typed in requests such as ‘swing from vine’ and you had a parrot to guide you through? PLEASE help it’s bugging me!!

  9. Can you please guide me when we purchase a parrot frm market like this
    what should be kept in mind
    What those things which we must consider
    Please guide so that i wont be cheated
    As there is always be risk when a new guy approach this type of market

  10. Check out the type birds you are interested in buying on birdbreeders.com first so you know a good price on the birds you are looking for. The breeders on the site are competitive and that keeps the prices in check. You can buy directly from a breeder there and probably get a better deal.

  12. you should promote them on the major search engines, there are thousands of paying customers everyday looking to buy books like that everyday.

    you dont even need a website to do this either just
    Go to Freewebsitetraffic.tv they get your site 5,000 visitors a week and front page of the major search engines in 24 hours.

  13. I live in a large studio loft that doubles as my art studio and I have alot of space. I spend most of my time working on my art so it gets pretty lonely here, so I wanna get an african grey parrot. I dont care if it talks or anything I just want a really intelegent bird that interacts well, I heard that birds will make life long companionships with people which sounds awesome, anyway money is not an issue I’m more worried about it having good living conditions, and being able to spend time with me while I do my art. Is the african grey the best species for this or would something else be better, also what sized cage should I get, also is there a guide on buying a parrot from breeders cause I dont really know anything about that.

  14. If you’ve never kept a bird before, an African Grey is not a good choice for a “first bird.” You would be better served with a smaller bird such as a Green Cheek Conure, cockatiel, or similar sized parrot. However, if your heart is set on an African Grey, join a forum in order to learn all you need to know about them.

    I need to ask, what kind of projects are you working on? What types of paints or other materials do you use? Birds have extremely sensitive airways and cannot tolerate fumes from oil paints or solvents, glues, etc. If you are working with watercolors or charcoal sketches, or other “clean air” materials, then a parrot would be okay.

    The other point I should bring up is that birds fly. They also make a lot of mess and can destroy things very easily. Would this be a problem for you? You need to spend about an hour or two EVERY day in order to clean up after the bird. You also need to safeguard your work and belongings from being destroyed by an overly curious bird. Keeping the bird caged all day would be cruel. If you have to keep him caged in order to protect your things, then either get his wings clipped or reconsider your choice of pet.

    Cats can make good companions, as can certain small dogs (this is assuming that your building has no issues with pets.) Parrots can be a lot noisier than either a cat or a dog. Parrots are more like taking in a toddler, than buying a pet, so think this over before you take the plunge. Parrots are not for the “faint at heart.”

  15. hi, i have a quaker parrot that i want to teach her to talk, can you guide me step by step! and at what age can they start? i really appreciate any help, thx!

  16. They can start at any age.

    It will take time and patience, and lots of repetition. Keep your sessions short, 15 minutes max. Find a word you want your bird to learn, find a quiet comfortable spot with her, and make sure she’s not tired or distracted. Repeat repeat repeat the word. When the bird makes a noise after you say the word, praise or reward her. This will teach the bird that making a sound when YOU make a sound is a desirable thing to do.

    Parrots are clever. When you are doing things near or around the cage, talk to the bird and tell her what you are doing. When you give her a piece of apple for example, tell her “Mmmm apple!” When she has a bath, tell her about it – You’re all wet! You’re in the water! Are you having a shower? When you go to give her a scratch, hold your fingers above her head and ask her – Wanna scratch? Before long she will learn to put MEANINGFUL associations between your words and your actions.

    I have an African grey who doesn’t talk much, but she understands the things I say to her very well. Some of the things she understands include: Wanna go shower? Want yum yums? Where’s Jinx? (my dog) Wanna scratch? Shake hands (she will stick one foot out and shake hands with me).
