I have been reading lots on the internet, but this seems like an awesome place to learn from the experts. I am a first time owner of a two Linnies that I got from a rescue. They are said to be about 1 yr. and 1 1/2 yrs. old and may or may not be a pair?? One is green with a little yellow on the wings and one is blue, I think perhaps what they call cobalt?? They were alone and quiet for the first 3 days that I got them. Since then, I have been on vacation from my job and have been spending lots of time getting to know them. I have made some mistakes already as I read some of the posts here. Hopefully in time I can undo those mistakes.
I am an animal lover, always have been, always will. I look back on family photos from a time when I was to young to remember and I always had some kind of animal with me.
Anway, glad I found you guys and am looking forward to learning from you and sharing with you.

First time in any time of Forum! New to Linnies, he's 5.5 months old now - Kokomo Meroke Blue (even though he's green ;). Always had lovebirds before, very tame and lovable ones. Most recent one died in January @ 15 y/o :(

REEEEALLLLY enjoying my little Linnie - he's such a mushy loverboy!! I feel like he might be trying to start speaking - either way is fine with me.

Looking forward to learning and sharing here.

Bye for now.

If you are wondering, the name PsychoChaser, it refers to a Japanese video game that I bought in the mid-eighties.

I have two green split linnies, but I am not 100% sure. They are a bonded pair that I purchased from a very nice lady.

Why? I wanted to breed my budgie but since I am working on handtaming and some tricks with her, I decided against it.

The linnies have had eggs and three of the four eggs have hatched. I have been reading as much as I can for the last month on this forum and other websites.

I am looking to become a first time linnie owner in a few weeks. In fact, the linnie is supposed to be a bird for our daughter, but as she is just 8 years old, I expect to take most of the care for him/her. We do not want to breed him or her, just have it for fun and love. I hope you pardon my language mistakes, as I am not a native speaker. I decided to become a member of this site as I have seen that it is possible to gain a lot of valuable information about linnies, which are quite rare in our country.

All the best, Eva :) ]]> Member Introductions echyt http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7833 Bella Blueberry says hello http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7816&goto=newpost Sat, 21 Aug 2010 16:33:19 GMT Hello everyone my name is Veronika, my bird is Bella Blueberry. I call her Bella, she is sooo cute she likes eating rice and "talking" with Perky my cockatiel from across the house. She is blue and full of personality but she's not friendly all the time. Sometimes, I scratch her on the neck while my mother cleans her cage, she really likes it. I love her sooo much but I wish I could hold her. Her band says she was born in 2003 that makes her about 7 years old!!!! She's been in a pet store most of those years, that is probably why she has a few social issues. Nothing a little TLC can't help. :lovehearts:That being said I finish my intro by telling all of you how lovely and adorable your birdies are.:) ]]> Member Introductions Bella Blueberry http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7816 Hello to all, from new guy in San Diego http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7808&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Aug 2010 19:39:00 GMT Hi, my name is Ron and I live in San Diego.

I live in Marion, which is an hour north of Columbus.

I had several places to shop and talk when I lived in Atlanta and they had a monthly bird fair. I have really missed it.

Recommendations needed, please! ]]> Member Introductions yankeesmomma http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7778 new linnie http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7777&goto=newpost Tue, 17 Aug 2010 17:39:56 GMT I just got a linnie on Sunday. If the tail feathers are indicative of sex, then she looks to be a female. It doesn't really matter, so I am going to call her Iris as she is blue.

I have 3 grown sons, 3 yorkies, a caique, 2 parrotlets, and now Iris. I am also a school teacher living in Ohio.

I recently went on vacation to visit my sons and I let my 3rd parrotlet and my hampster with my cousin. She is handicapped due to a stroke and when I returned, she asked if she could keep Quill and Nibbles. She fell in love with them and they are so much company, so... I went to a bird fair on Sunday and came home with Iris. She is going to become a member of my 4th grade language arts class. I still have to replace the dwarf hampster.

Yankee is the quietest caique that I have ever heard of. He is 4 and a real joy, although he only likes me. Twinkie, my yellow p'let loves to chatter, but hates to come out of his cage. Bluebella, blue p'let, has laid 2 clutches of eggs this Spring, but finally stopped while I was away. She is very social and loving. Iris was handfed but not handled much lately, so we are still getting acquainted!

I have belonged the the "Up At Six" forum for several years, but it has become inactive.

I have been reading posts about linnies and I had done quite a bit of research on them before I bought Iris, but I look forward to learning much more. ]]> Member Introductions yankeesmomma http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7777 Hi! http://www.lineolatedparakeet.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7762&goto=newpost Sun, 15 Aug 2010 23:54:52 GMT I currently have assorted finches and parakeets, turquoisine grass parakeets, a pair of indian ringnecks and am working on plans for some small... I currently have assorted finches and parakeets, turquoisine grass parakeets, a pair of indian ringnecks and am working on plans for some small aviaries. I am interested in adding some linnies and some bourke parakeets to my collection. They are housed in flight cages in my screen porch but I am converting it to larger custom built flights. I am researching the linnies want to know as much as possible about who they can share space with.

I am looking forward to getting my first pair and learning more about them.
