Talking Thank You!

Thanks so much! I guess it's the male I like, because I am very attracted to the yellow color, rather than the green.

Wow... I really am loving this bird.

Not sure you got my point? The picture I posted was of the Mountain Parakeets Bolborhynchus aurifrons...

The picture you posted, although LABELED as a "mountain parakeet" is a Regent Parrot aka Rock Pebbler Polytelis anthopeplus... Regardless, they are interesting looking birds!


Here's some topics (mostly old) that have talked about the Regents...
New here and to the bird world
Princess Parrot / Rock Pebbler
Rock Pebbler? What's a freakin Rock Pebbler?!

So, now here is my problem... where do I find a male hand-fed rock pebbler? I really aspire to a mommy to one of these babies! Just love everything about them. If anyone has any info on a reputable breeder of these beauties, please let me know.

Thanks in advance!
