Indian Ringneck Parakeet Colors and Markings:
Ringnecks are available in shades ranging from bright yellows, greens, and blues, to albinos, cinnamons, and lutinos.
Though the color mutations are common, the normal coloring of this
species is bright lime green with blue tail feathers and yellow under the wings.
They are known as a dimorphic species, meaning that a bird's sex can be determined by its colors and markings.
Males sport deep red beaks, black facial markings, and three bands of color around their necks.
The black ring develops at about 18 months and blue and pink rings appear by the time they reach 3 years old.
Females, while still beautiful, lack the facial and collar bands,
although some do display a slight darkening of color around their necks.
Diet and Nutrition
Wild Indian ringnecks usually feast on a diet of fruits, vegetables, nuts, berries, and seeds.
They also enjoy the nectar from flowers and the flowers themselves.
While most vets agree that it is best for captive birds to eat a nutritionally balanced pelleted diet,
a ringneck will appreciate a variety of fruits and vegetables in their diet.
Leafy greens and vegetables are crucial for any companion parrot to maintain a nutritionally sound diet,
and the Indian ringneck parakeet is no exception. They can also eat healthy cooked food you would
eat and are particularly fond of chicken, though beans, grains, and rice are also acceptable.
Avocados and chocolate are toxic to birds.
Some ringneck owners find that their bird will sort out and leave behind pellets if it's mixed with seeds.
This is the only thing these birds seem to be picky about eating. If you find that to be the case,
offer pellets and seeds separately and rotate them on a regular schedule. Even if they don't
eat something right away, they usually come around to it.
As with all birds, food and water containers should be emptied, cleaned, and refilled daily to reduce the risk
of bacterial growth and infection.
