Any Eclectus Parrot Owners out ther. . help? 10pnts?

Question by Kylie F: Any Eclectus Parrot Owners out ther. . help? 10pnts?
Needing advise for first time ekky mum. I have on hold a beautiful female ekky that is three months old. by the time i get her she will be just over four months old. The breeder told me not to put her out on our deck during the days as she will get lonely. But i have two quakers and two tiels that also live on the deck during the daytime while im at work and we all spend the afternoons and nights inside together playing for a few hours before bed and also in the morning before i leave to go to work. i only work two days a week and the other days im in and out all the time but always home by about 3pm. My questions are
1.will 4months of age be harder to bond with
2. if she is on the deck next to the other birds isnt that better then stuck inside all day
3. Any advise for when i bring her home and getting her settled?

Thanks for any input

i think having her on the deck with the others is a great idea, just keep an eye on her for the first few weeks till she settles down, if she’s hand reared, then 4 months old shouldnt be a problem, as long as u be persistant and patient with it :)

good idea would be to give it some fruit while its out, if it knows it can eat while with you and be safe, it will be fine :)

Eclectus parrot questions?

Question by KnotsnSuch: Eclectus parrot questions?
Well, I am seriously considering getting an ekkie. I want a male because the females are so much more agressive. I heard though, that they like a quiet, tranquil home and aren’t much for change. That isn’t really my house, rather, camper. I live in a camper right now but I am moving to an appartment or to a cottage in michigan. I won’t get it until I move though. My mom can be loud, and sometimes yells, I have a golden retriever (who is scared of birds), a cockatiel, an a mouse, and I have a little sister that can be squealy and has the tv going a lot. And we will share a room (but the tv is not in the bedroom where I will be keeping the birds). Does this sound too hectic for an ekkie?
Also, please outline a perfect diet for an ekkie and any brands or products made for ekkies.
And, what is the minimum cage size?

Best answer:

Answer by Milk
A lot of that stuff about Ekkies only coping in a tranquil environment, without kids and stuff is mostly crap that was originally thought that they’re stupid because when they were 1st captured out of the wild they were scared and stood stock still, a trait of Ekkies, when upset or nervous, they stand still, completely still apart from the wildly darting pupils. No it should be fine, although it does depend somewhat on the bird, but mine comes into school (with a class of about 32 kids) almost everyday. He’s still new to it so I’m takin it slow so he doesn’t stress too much. Besides you can tell when they’re stressed coz they get these things called stress lines, its normal for them to have a few, and normal for them to have a little more than a few after the stress of changing homes but if you see barring pretty much all over the bird, cover its cage, get it into a quiet room and leave it there for a day, obviously check its food and water, common sense.

Their diets actually aren’t that hard, pretty much any natural pellet, with no artifical colours or flavours will be okay, supplement this with a seed mix and LOTS and I mean LOTS of fresh food, fresh food makes upto 70% of their diet so always have it handy and remove and replenish daily so it doesn’t spoil. Ask oyur local avaian vet for a good pellet mix. Try to avoid too many nuts because Ekkies are prone to fatty liver disease and aren’t used to a high-fat diet.

Minimum cage size is about: 2ft x 3ft, they say that width is more important than height. In cm’s its more acurate: 140h x 92w x 64d.

I hope this helps!!

I have a sun conure, would it be okay to get an eclectus parrot?

Question by ?: I have a sun conure, would it be okay to get an eclectus parrot?
Hi. I have a sun conure that is about a year and 3 months old. I have had him since he was weaning and I hand fed him for a month or so. I went to my local pet store today and saw a male Solomon Island Eclectus. I am wondering, if I kept the Sun Conure in my bed room and the Eclectus in my living room how would the Sun Conure react? Would he be jealous if he saw the Eclectus, and could I introduce them and make them friends or atleast know each other are there? Can you tell me about their personality and if they are good with other birds? And please show me an example cage that I could house him in. THANKS :)

Answer by galapagos6
I realize this doesn’t really answer your question, but just a warning. Eclectus parrots are prone to carrying PBFD..(beak and feather disease). IF you do buy this one, see if the pet shop will get it tested before you take it home. Especially because you have a younger bird at home.

What is going to happen to my female eclectus parrot when I go to college??

Question by xx33jennnnxx33: What is going to happen to my female eclectus parrot when I go to college??
I’m a high school junior and going to college soon. I have a 2.5 year old Solomon Island Eclectus female. She is completely bonded to me and has attacked other members of my family several times.

I don’t know what she’s going to be like when I leave. I don’t want her to get stressed. I really don’t want to leave her, but I don’t think that’s an option.

I’m thinking about getting another bird for her, but she might not get along with it.

Any ideas on what I should do??
* the college im planning on going to is an hour away…so my plan is to commute back and forth if taking her with me is not an option

* i would never give her away…shes a member of the family… I was just considering another bird just so she would have some company during the day or whenever I wasnt there

* i take care of her the most : feed her, play with her, etc. shes my little buddy, i have her out most of the day. my sister and my mom hold her alot, my dad doesnt even attempt to even touch her, but now my mom not so much because she was bitten a few times. I think this is because my bird senses the fear and that makes her bite
* and yes the biting is a fairly recent thing

* she even bit me once because I took her toy away… which is im sure a sign of dominance or her hormones kicking in
* it was probably my fault for doing this, but i took her toy away because i was going out and had to put her in the cage…but i picked up the toy first

*i know its important to ignore the behavior when she bites or something similar. but when that happens to my mom, she reacts before thinking. i dont know what to do so my mom doesnt do this. ive trained my bird she knows whats good and whats bad, but with my mom giving reactions like screaming or something when she is bitten, that undos everything that i taught her if that makes sense

* but thank you soo much for all the great info… i really appreciate it

Some dorms allow small caged pets. If your’s doesn’t you should consider moving into an apartment or move in with a room mate.

Is this a suitable diet for an eclectus parrot?

Question by Meleah: Is this a suitable diet for an eclectus parrot?
To all those bird lovers out there! Here is the diet i have my ekky on, do you think it is a suitable diet? What am i missing?

I put in diced mixed veges, which include carrot, zucchini, red chilli’s, red capsicums etc etc. It stays in there all day, as he likes to take his time eating. He is indoors, and the house stays cool. Of an evening i put in fresh diced fruit for two hours,throughout the day he has Eclectus pellets and dehydrated fruit. And as his training treat i’m going to start using sunflower seed. I use a calcium suppliement once a week in his water, and also a vitamin and mineral suppliement in his food once a week. I was doing this daily but have been told not to do that, as i am overdoing it with the added vitamins and minerals – as there are alot of it in his pellets.
Thanks birdsandbooks:)you’re great.

The man – That was very useful information Thank you.
