hey

Hey this looks more like a convict to me rather than a BP. But it surely was in a bad shape when you rescued it. Has it started feeding anything yet?. Try a beef heart mix or frozen brine shrimp, it will help recover a lot faster and you will see some really true colours. If possible i would also try my hands at hatching brine shrimp and feeding them live.

Cheers

Re: hey

Both my baby parrot I rescued and the parrot that looks like a convict have been eating.

Not that I'm mad about it but for some reason the new guy, who my family dubbed Ziggy for some reason, doesn't want to hide. I guess if they are older when you get them they are more likely to hide when you first get them. He doesn't really care for Marley, my baby oscar who is about the same size.

Its funny, I will drop in some little dried shrimp for Marley and Ziggy tries to eat it but its little parrot mouth can't grab it. So Marley will swoop in an take it making Ziggy angry and so he chases him.

Its not so much as he cant catch them, its more along the lines of too small a mouth. Even my bigger parrots have trouble with the shrimp.

Mr/Mrs Bubbles

Google Chrome won't let me post a new message so I will post it here. I can see Mr. B's breeding tube kinda and I'm not sure if its a Mr or Mrs. He/she is only about 3.5 inches so its small and hard to tell. What shape is male and which is female? I'm hoping for female so I can maybe have Jack Parrots (Dempsey X Parrot).

Re: Mr/Mrs Bubbles

they both have tubes, but they say that the males r pointy like a ''v'', and the gals r rounded like a ''u''. but its really hard to tell. i have both and i cant realy tell the difference that way. one thing is that males will only have pointed fins. females will have at least 1 rounded fin. thats what they say. hope it helps :)

My mystery parrot Butters

For those who said it just hasn't gotten its orange, here is a better pic.
When I first got him a week ago.

Now that he has settled, looks more convict like.
