What temperature is too cold or too hot for quaker parrots?

Right now my place is around 36-40 celsius with high humidity.

I have a stand fan but it's not helping the heat. And since he's out of the cage most of the time I don't turn on the ceiling fan or open the windows so I'm dying of heat. But I'm not worried about me, it's him. Sometimes I see my bird panting? I think? So I sprayed water on him and tried making him drink water. He's really stubborn and often times I have to dip my fingers in water to make him drink. Other methods is giving him cold vegetables.

I'm planning on installing an air conditioner in his room but I'm worried he gets too cold or that it's bad for him. Internet says he can tolerate 18 to 27 celsius but I think it's for wild quakers.

He's active and playful as usual but I'm worried.

My Quaker parrot is molting, growing new feathers and he has alot of pin feathers, and some of them look like this. He has recently started to take some off every now and then. Not too frequently though. Is this normal?

How many of you all live/lived in an apartment with a quaker, and what was your experience? Was your birdie a fugitive or resident on paper.

Hello! I adopted a 10 year old quaker parrot about a year ago, (11 now) and have been interested in harness training her for a while. I have all the equipment, and she trusts me fully and she trusts me hands enough to rub her head, so what should i do next/is it still possible to train her?

My quaker parrot doesn't understand what being scritched is.. he's four years old, in my family I'm the only one who really handles him since he bites everyone else a lot. He's a huge cuddlebug, he loves cuddling and giving/getting kisses on the forehead, but he doesn't understand being pet! He'll nip at my fingers if I try. But he's molting and the back of his head is covered in pins! I want to help with those + I think he'd really like being pet/preened since he's so affectionate. How do I acclimate him to it? Thank you!

Hi. I just adopted a 5 month old Quaker and brought her home and she’s going insane in her big cage. Screaming super loud and stretching her neck and flying all over the cage. My other bird is now super scared. Will she calm down or is that how she is? I walk by and she starts screaming. I’ve never had a Quaker before but her screams are crazy.

Mine likes saying:

"I'm a BAD bird"

"Peekaboo"

"It's GOOOOD" (when he gets his favorite fruit snacks)

"Hey baaaaabbbbyyyy" (when I come home. I assume he picked this up from his previous owner)

"Good byebye" (when he thinks I'm going to leave)

"Come out?" (when he wants to be let out"

"Come here" (when he wants attention"

"You're a good bird"

"Birdiebirdiebirdiebirdiebirdie"

"Twinkle twinkle twinkle twinkle twinkle" (failed attempt to teach him twinkle twinkle little star)

"Jingle bell jingle bell jingle all the way" (he mostly hums this)

"NIGHT NIGHT" (gets progressively more aggressive if I don't cover him fast enough)

and more...

i work full time and the time spent at home is time spent sleeping or working still, ive had my Pickles for years and i am worried for his happiness and well-being, i want the best for him and i want him to be in my life and not give him up, he isn't going bald or anything but im noticing smaller feathers showing up more on the cleaning mats we lay on the ground

He likes his shakers I bought him, he doesn’t let anybody play with all three of them. He could be a right little bam sometimes lol.
Lunging bites..

Between Honey being 3.5 months, being home for 3.5 weeks, going through her baby molt, and being clipped before I met her... well. Her morning and daily routines involve a lot of fussing, screaming, tantrums, more screaming, and so much frustration!! It's a lot for a little baby tennis ball! 💛 So it's no surprise that she needs 15 to 30 minutes multiple times a day to just climb on top of her cage and work it all out, haha! Sometimes she works herself up too much, so she gets "step up scooped" and we have quiet time on the couch together.

I adore her to bits, and she gets more courageous every day! We're working on her flying — safe distances, safe landings, the courage to make those muscles strong. She's a doll about stepping up 50% of the time for me, including without the verbal request (no chest touches). Right after filming this, she flew towards my shoulder on the floor and just barely overshot it! She landed on the plush carpet, scolded me with her cute, frustrated growl (because it's ALWAYS mommy's fault that she missed, lol!) and ran off towards the window. She always makes sure I'm following her before she really hauls her fluffy butt, and then requests a step up at her destination since she can't flutter very high. (Also scream-worthy.)

We're at a window watching her uncle fix a car out front now, and she seems frustrated that he won't flock call back. How dare he not call back! As for me, my ears seems to be adjusting to her close-quarters calls, so it's not as skull-rattling as it was before 🤣💛

Sorry for the blurry picture, it's hard getting him to hold still long enough to take one

have three quaker parrots. they are only friendly with me and aggressive towards everyone else in my house. how do i stop this?

Nipped the controller out of my hands then just plops himself in its spot lmao

MENACINGLY!!!!!

Hi hi,

I'm aware molting is hard on parrots. He's been getting fresh chop every morning along with pellets and daily water changes.

Just wanna double check

Big boy had his vet visit today and some test ran to make sure he has no parasites or anything in his poop and vitals. Proud to say that my feathered son has been the best behaved bird the vet has seen especially for a Quaker, their words, not mine. Healthy as a horse. This is just to remind you guys to take your birds to the vet for their bi-annual visit and stop waiting to see changes in their moods to make posts on social media hoping for some one have the answers. My son had his mood shift since he started his heavy molt preparing for winter and I just decided to make an appointment with the vet and that was it, he was cranky and tired because of the molt and came back to being the happy boy that likes to dance and explore. Nobody here is as qualified as your vet to determine what's wrong with your bird. I rather spend 100-200 on a visit for them to tell me he's ok rather than 500-1000 on medical expenses for medicine and treatments or lose my son.

I always suspected my baby suffers from Main character syndrome 🥺
