Why I Drove 800 Miles To Rescue An African Ringneck
My morning was going quite well.
Dr. Johansen called with the lab results and my A1c was down to 5.9 from 7.4 in January.

Indian Ringneck Love Brings Ringneck Problems
Indian ringnecks are marvelous birds and I’ve had the great fortune to live with the species in two different households.
They’re not big birds they weigh an average of 115 g about the body size of a Senegal or a fat cockatiel but the long tail gives the impression that it’s a much larger bird.
The overall length of the bird must be taken into consideration when choosing the right birdcage and especially the travel carrier.
They can be quite tame and are a relatively good talker.
Below you will find three curated questions about Indian ringnecks that found us one way or another and we felt sharing solutions would be helpful.
Exploring Indian Ringnecks
Indian ringnecks aka Rose-winged parrots
Editors note: Approximately 20% of parrots are sexually dimorphic meaning sex can be determined by color. Male Eclectus parrots are green, female Eclectus are red (with good reason)
Male budgies generally have a blue cere and female’s, a brown cere. Male Indian ringnecks are the ones with the rings.
