Birds - November 2006

I have a male and a female cockateil that barely layed eggs, they never layed on the eggs before, but these two eggs the male is almost always on them, the female hardly lays on them, but is it bad that the eggs are at the bottom of the cage, not in a nesting box, and also at night time when they get covered they get off the eggs, only sometimes they stay on, but they usely stay off, is that okay for them to do that

1.) Where would one purchase such a bird? A standard pet store?
2.) What are they usually fed for optimal health?
3.) How "messy" are they with their business?
4.) What are your general experiences with them?

I'm putting my bird houses out well before spring. Any tips on the best position to encourage blue titts, also what type of box and position do I need to encourage robins?

earlier today ( maybe 20 30 min. ago) a bird i had never seen before flew against my window and was pertching on the screen. i took a few pictures. i tried to get a picture of its back but it flew away when i tried to open the other window. it's probably one thats been identified before i've just never seen it before ( i live in North Texas, but just outside the city...so country i guess :) ) does anyone know where i could go to find out what kind of bird it is by the picture?

just in case it :

has a Golden brown-orange head with a red stripe on the back of its head. it also has that golden brown-orange color underneath its wings and a little on the tail with white in the middle of its tail and black on the tip. it has a black collar looking line on the top of the breast and the rest is whiteish brown with black spots all over it. i guess by the little bit i can see of the back its kind of a dapple color of brown and white.

hope that helps.

I have raised a rescued grackle since it was nearly drowned. It was 3 days old (born Mother's day 05) and now full grown and he/she is lovely. I dig for worms even!! Big cage made from hula hoops and chicken wire ~ well, how long will it maybe live?

Why is she acting so strange ? The little one is too young to feed itself.

I have a parkeet who is yellow and her name is sunshine. She is just starting to talk, and loves to say I love you she will get right up in your face and kiss you when she does it!
Do your parakeets talk?

this certain girl is only 12 and she wants a parrot. i don't know if she'll have the time and will accept the responsibility. what do you think? she has kept a bird before but it is gone so she was thinking of another one, a lovebird. do you have some advice for her?

My parakeet has diarrhea and seems very tired. I bought some pills to put in his water and am trying to get him to drink it. His poop isnt as watery now but is still discolored. What are the chances he survives if i dont take him to a vet and he doesnt really drink the water? can he get over it on his own?

I was thinking of getting a macaw, but after 8 wonderful answers from some of you at this board, i decided i shouldnt get one. Just because of the risk of getting bitten...horribly.lol. So im thinking of getting a cockatoo. My life is actually planned out. I run my own bussiness, and so i wont be going to college. Im 15 and when im 18 ill just continue on with my websites. So yeah, that issue is out of the picture. And I plan on only making one move to the east coast. I want a lifelong companion, such as a cockatoo.Id love to hear from owners!=) The reason i was thinking of getting a macaw rather than a cockatoo, is because they just seem more predictable when theyre going to bite. Costs are a problem, im fully aware how costly parrots can be. But would you reccomend a cockatoo instead of a macaw? thank you all. god bless.
