I have finally decided on the bird i'm going to get!!!?

Question

I just wanted to thank ya'll who helped me in deciding what bird to get, i know i asked a TON of questions, so thanks again

I'm going to get an ring necked indian parakeet

Since they are small, smart, and pretty to look at


If anybody owns one of these birds and would like to give me a few pointers about owning them, and your personal experiences with them that would be great (don't worry, i am still doing tons of research on them also)

and are they compatable with cockatiels, can they socialize together, like eat, bath and play together, they will still have their own cage by the way

Answer 1

I, myself do not own an Indian Ringneck but have heard that the males are nicer, more trainable, and seem to "deal" with other birds better.

Congrats on finding the right bird for you, and doing research to find the right one for you. I don't know if they have Ringneck Parakeet specific books but I would check on Amazon.com
I've found A LOT of parrot books on that site and for a good price. As always, please find a bird that is fully weaned, and vet checked (make sure you get a copy of the vet check up). When you bring baby home, no more than a couple of weeks I would have the bird taken to your local Avian Vet for a well check up, to make sure your bird is healthy.

Answer 2

Wonderful. They are nice birds and beautiful!!! I KNOW you will enjoy your bird. I have owned MANY birds over the years, and have had many friends with Ringnecks, just never had one myself, but they were nice birds. I hope you get a lot of good advice from some owners who do have them and can help you. Best wishes, I know you must be excited!
