SIX PARROTS

Quiet parrots, again, with my 4 and 2 visiting parrots, a sweet self plucker male Ekkie named Jaarad, and a Quaker named Pepper. Both parrots know me all their lives. Hmm I need to put some music on to get them to be more lively, ya think?

Cute birds! I have a question about your male Eclectus parrot. Was he plucking or did he have the beak and feather disease? I think that all of your birds are sweet. Both of the Eclectuses are very cute. I love the Amazons voice. My Timneh African Grey, Rudy, says hi! He likes watching this video. He thinks he is meeting birds in person and hes in my lap right now XD. Good luck birdkeeping (not that you'll need luck ;) )

Jaarad (male ekkie) developed this plucking behavior after getting a vaccination for polymalvirus. He started plucking the site where the vet administered the vaccine. sadly, we didn't know that we should NOT have had him get the vaccine! Very few if any parrot people have it given to their companions.Jaarads sister died from polymavirus at the pet shop where we bought Jaaead, so we did it as a precaution for 2 yrs in a row! First year he never plucked bt aftr the 2nd vaccine the next yr he did

You are my idol!!! I don't know how you do it i just own a green cheek conure and i barely have any time for myself I don't know how you do it! I barely have any social time (except with my bird!) don't African greys and all of your other parrots need lots of attention? how do you go to work or go out with your friends? Well anyways I really respect you:) Pleas respond back.

One more thing, I do have a routine (Birds LOVE routines. When I get up the first thing I do is go to the Bird Room, smile happily and say Good Morning to each parrot, then I open the blinds, turn on the radio, give fresh water and special morning treats (food).

You crazy parrot lady lol!

I wish my wife would let me have one

Your birds are very colorful and bright. I wish that I had more too. I guess it just takes a love of birds. Our guests think that we are crazy for having a bird. Especially when I try to talk on the phone and Cookie is squawk'in. I like your cages too. We could use a nice one like yours. Cookie would like it. Her's isn't too bad, but we can always do better.

Sry I didn't finish... anyway I think it was kind of smart because at least he won't catch it.... :( but it's really sad that he's plucking his feathers out. Hopefully he would stop. So was the vaccine irritating his skin or what? Poor Jaarad, I hope he's ok, And that his sister is happy, wherever she is in heaven right now.

[Missy492]

They really seem happy. It must be hard to keep them all so happy, especially when there's 6 of them! Bless Jaarad, I hope he stops his plucking soon. He probably will. It was smart to give him the vaccine against polyomavirus!

Thanks for taking up for me, I 'preciate it and I just try to ignore the haters' like Mr. Koolguy. He was just prob. bored and I bet he secetly likes parrots too. Probably alot of people think I go overboard for my parrots, but I just love my sweeties, besides, my grown son says I don't spend enough time with the parrots. Oh well.
