    To make a very long story short, someone is my apartment complex got caught with this boy and was going to “set him free” rather than pay the fine (parrots aren’t allowed without a hefty pet fee here).

    My name is Jess and my p'let is Millie (short for Millet Nugget, or sometimes Millie Birbie Blue). Her hatch date is Oct 18 and she's about 13 weeks. She's a delight and also very bitey. We're working on that though. Thanks for having us!

    Hello everyone I'm brand new to parrotlets, we have had our beautiful Tillie for a day and a half. I'd really like to do this right, and the advice on this forum is awesome, thank you.

    Hello! I grew up with budgies and was considering getting one for myself, but I discovered the lovely parrotlet at the bird store. :D I've read a lot online and got myself a book, but I'm hoping you all can help me determine if a parrotlet will be happy with me. I guess the question is: "easier"...

    Hello! My name is Jacie, and I adopted a gorgeous little blue Pacific P'let last Tuesday. It's been almost an entire week, and he seems pretty happy, but I just can't seem to get a solid reading on the little guy. Jackson is a year old (according to his previous owner), and she said he was a...

    Hey everyone! I'm actually a member on the talk budgies forums. I have 3 budgies that I love to death, but, I just adopted a 2 year old female blue parrotlet yesterday night from a family member that just didn't have enough time to spend with her and socialize her.

    Hello All - I'm so glad you exist...I have been reading up on parrotlets for a couple of weeks now and just brought my first parrotlet, Trixie, home this past Sunday.

    :) Hey everyone! Yesterday morning I went and picked up my first parrotlet from a breeder. His name is Moses and I was told that he's about three months old! So far he's pretty nice and very adorable! I've given him some time to get used to his new cage so he doesn't feel too overwhelmed...

    I'm Kat, and yes that is a little ironic since this is a bird forum! *Laughs* On a serious note I joined because next year I plan to add two parrotlets to my household. Currently two cats, and two parrots keep me. Boston a gray tabby, and Alia-Ghanima an orange tabby cat. Sir Dwight is a 13 year...

    Hi, I have a two year old male parrotlet, and have been considering adding a second parrotlet to the mix. Is it better to add a young female or a male? I have been told that parrotlets rarely get along after a certain age with another parrotlet, and should not be trusted in the same cage...
