@@Riccothegreenpiedirn hi yes I will keep you posted on Angel veterinarian visit in a few weeks.Yes I will give angel lots of kisses from you and Ricco.All the best to you and Ricco in 2022.yes my angel gets stressed out at the veterinarian but he to go so then eventually he will be off of his thyroid medication And I have his nails done also done at the veterinarian.When I used to live in southern California I went to a pet store with my mom to have her birds nails done but my mom's birds nails were too bleeding so we took my mom's bird to the veterinarian in southern California after that experience I said never again a pet store only veterinarian for birds nails done.
@@angelslife416 Oh that’s such great news. Hopefully Angel won’t need the medication any longer. It is scary when they bleed, especially the small birds. I only file Ricco’s nails, but I’ve been doing it for many years. I prefer not to cut them myself because of what could happen, always better to be safe. Have a good night 😴
I absolutely enjoyed this video!💖 As always our sweet Ricco was the perfect model for your educational and fun video! 😍You weren't kidding when you told me what a skilled flyer he is! He is absolutely gorgeous to watch and faster than a speeding bullet.🤩 You are still the best-er-est-est birdie momma in the world to me!🥰 Hugs and kisses!💋
Aww your so kind, thank you so much 🥰. I’m so happy you enjoyed the video and for all your support, I really appreciate it. Thank you for all the love. Have a great day 🥰❤️🥰
Morning from South Africa we new to bird peranting..........we thought Jhon was love bird...but he/she looks like Ricco.......make same sounds. We get a good ideas from your channel thank you.
I love watching your Videos for helpful tips and information…and Reminders at times! I loved the idea of foraging toys to give them something exciting to play with and thus give them a job….and keep them busy too! Thanks 🙏🦜🦜😍🥰😍🙌
Thank you for the positive feedback, I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😊❤️ When I first introduced foraging to Ricco he couldn’t figure it out lol. So I had to show him where the treats were and hide it, eventually he figured it out 😁.
@@Riccothegreenpiedirn lol…😂 so even more interesting for both of you…!!! By the way, A Very Happy New Year…2022!! to Ricco, Mom and the entire Family…In anticipation….🙏🙏🙏🙏🦜🦜☎️😍🦜🦜🎄🌲❤️🥰🤗🙏
This is so well made!! XD Rikka is always terrified of new toys, and won’t go near the others if its close to them, so every time I get him a new toy I leave it sitting somewhere for a few days where he can see it. Not all birds are as bad as mine is about it, but it helps if that happens to be the case
Aww thank you ❤️. I agree, most birds are afraid of unfamiliar objects or toys. Ricco is afraid as well of some things, I do the same thing and allow him to slowly get used to it. Thank you for the great tip for the toys, I’m sure this will help others 😊
Another good video 🤩You are a good speaker , and your advice is welcomed for the Birdy ones ❤️🐦Hoping you and sweetie pie will enjoy the New Year, hoping it's Better ! 🎊🎇🙏🍀🥂Love you two 💕👱🐦🥳
Aww thank you so much ❤️ All the best to you in 2022. You’ve always been so supportive and it’s a pleasure to have come across such a caring person. Let’s hope 2022 will be better for everyone 🎊🙏❤️
I love this! However, you're doing far better than I am in the toy part because I can't find toys here, so I compensate by making them a stand they can destroy and sit on. They mostly are outside of the cage except for when they go inside by themselves!
You love your birds just as much as I love Ricco. A toy doesn’t need to cost you anything, as long as you are providing them with something to chew on and play with that’s good enough. I’ve spent so much on toys that Ricco doesn’t play with, but instead he’ll find other things around the home lol. As long as it’s bird safe, that’s good enough 😊❤️
Brilliant, helpful & concise information.. Thank you,.🙏💕🐦🦜💕.Ricco is adorable as always..I love the toys he has.the coconut perch/swing & the idea with the paper bag ..shredded paper .hanging down with treats.. excellent idea😀👌..Wondered if all Ricco's toys are bought online from Canada & certain petstores? In UK we have pets at home & the Range store.which can be very expensive plus limited choices.Then online seem the stores with most varied choices are online from America etc..I do use online mainly.however America does seem to have the biggest & best stores for suitability, choice & cost..that's for sure..😎💕👌
Thank you so much for the positive feedback 🥰. I do order some things from Amazon, but most things we can get from bird toys here in Canada. The stand was designed by me and made by my dad and I. I do make foraging toys myself for Ricco just to keep things interesting lol. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you, Ziggy and Charlie are all doing well ❤️
Thank you and glad you found it helpful. Here is a video I did about diet, hopefully you find this video helpful as well. I also have many more in my playlist. 👉th-cam.com/video/DfkhUgQQuvE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for sharing your great advice. What kind of a healthy snack can I feed my parrot and any other food that you can recommend please. Thank you again
Well I don’t know what about letting my bird flying around the places because a lot of the places like he might go on top of the lamb so I don’t want anything to happen and thank you so much for making us so learn any new things
I let my bird out of the cage and he got scared and so he flew into the window, broke his neck and died… now we won’t let our birds be out, flying in a room with a window…
But it was actually a few years ago, and we have learned from our mistakes… but I do really want him to be with us, he was the kindest and one of the tames ones, and I do miss him:(
Ricco is pretty much out all day except when he goes to bed, but that’s because someone is always home. If you’ve never owned parrots before I’d highly recommend doing lots of research on ringneck parrots if you haven’t yet. I do have a video in my playlist about the reality of owning a ringneck parrot VS expectations and pros and cons, hopefully they can help you out.
You would need to check in pet stores or online, it depends where you live. You can also make safe fun chew toys, as long as what you are using is safe without ink or chemicals. Try searching online for DIY bird toys, here is one i did. Hope it helps th-cam.com/video/ZVOkQQOhWTA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6OKRJ5Hox9hf5aq7
It’s really up to the bird, just don’t force your bird. Also try to give your bird a bath during the day and not at nighttime. If your bird is molting a bath will be good for him more frequently, otherwise you can give it to him every other day or when he seems like he would like one. Hope that helps.
Ur the best 🤩.but I have some issues with my ring neck parrot .the issues ar👉🏻He is little bit scare of me and he shouts all the time. do u have any solution for me ?
Thank you. It takes time for a bird to trust a human and build a bond. When is he screaming? Is it when you go near him or try to pick him up? Birds usually scream for a reason so try to understand why he’s doing it and stop so it doesn’t get worse. Use treats and foods to gain his trust and work at his pace, hopefully in time he will learn to trust you.
I always recommend a cage, even if it’s just for nighttime. It’s a good idea to get them used to one incase of emergencies or you need to leave them alone sometimes. Especially if she is full flighted, she could hurt herself.
Putting that bird near a plug socket he could turn and pick in it, I've always said it's scary to cover a bird at night as it could scare them in morning as they will not know what time they will be uncovered everyday and maybe frightened each day
I’ve covered all my birds for their entire lives and never had an issue with it, in fact most bird owners do. As far as the plug goes Ricco never bites any cord or any cloth for that matter, you need to go according to your bird and how they are as stated in my video.
I don’t ever give dry fruits to Ricco, only because of the preservatives in it. Are they made for birds or humans? If anything read the label to make sure what is in it incase it is not safe for your bird. Hope that helps 😊
I’ve had my bird for almost a week and have been told not to leave the cage open until she’s completely settled but she’s still getting used to me and won’t take food from my hand yet
Is she full flighted? If so and you are planning on letting her out of the cage soon, be sure to do it in a safe room with windows and mirrors covered as they will fly into them when startled.. Try to look around and make sure that their is nothing in the room that she could injure herself on. She will take time getting used to your hand, just continue doing what you are doing.
It’s always best to introduce anything as early as possible to your bird, that way they get familiar with things including toys. Just be sure to do it slowly and under supervision as your bird is a baby.
Hi. I found a parrot 3 weeks ago, it's a male alexandrine.. . Sometimes he makes a sound like a sigh (ahh) every 10 seconds , do you have any idea what that means? By the way I didn't found the owner and I think I will keep it.

You can try putting your bird in a room that is safe for him. They need time out of cage to stretch and get exercise otherwise they can get bored.
I let my bird out of the cage and he got scared and so he flew into the window, broke his neck and died… now we won’t let our birds be out, flying in a room with a window…
So sorry for you loss. I always tell people to cover windows and mirrors when your bird is out to keep them safe.
But it was actually a few years ago, and we have learned from our mistakes… but I do really want him to be with us, he was the kindest and one of the tames ones, and I do miss him:(

A quick question
Are griled vegtables safe for parrots 🤔
Would that be on the barbecue or fried? Is so they are not, it’s best to feed them fresh vegetables or litely steamed. Hope that helps 😊
where do you byt the toys? my parrots cage has been empty for quite a while now and i want her to b happy but idk where to buy safe toys

What, how do you keep Rico still when recording. My bird can’t sit straight for even 2 secs
Haha I try to get it when he’s relaxing, otherwise it’s impossible as well lol
But to do we have to like feed him carrots
Is your parrot a ringneck parrot? Birds in general should have a variety of healthy foods and carrots are really good for birds.

Thanks one more question please after feeding his feathers is all dirty can i bathe him sorry to be a bother
@@rhondnn1 You can as long as it’s daytime and he has enough time to dry off before bedtime , otherwise just wipe him off with a damp warm cloth.
