Hi guys...I'm currently living in uae...exactly a year ago I walked past a store in Abu Dhabi that had been breeding

indian ringneck parrot and I got 1...this was my first attempt to hand rear...it went pretty well...but my first two died...the first died quickly and the second died with horrific seizures...I found out it was probably cause my sister would feed stray cats and probably got their saliva into the birds...anyways my third was a success...I used to give it organic echinacea and chamomile teas with its formula...I have to say few things in this world can replicate the joy of having your baby bird fly to you for the first time...he/ she is a year old now...I'm not sure of the gender of my ring neck but I think I see a faint sign of a ring development around the neck...will be sure after the second mould...my bird is like a watch dog she tried to PROTECT me from my rabbit by flying on his back and biting his ears...thank God he is fluffy or that would have hurt...hope there are members from the UAE around...I have loads of question and I'm glad to have found this place for my queries
