Mango's feathers are a lot brighter and in better condition since I took him home.Here he is November 8th when he first came home and got a nice warm shower after bringing him home in the rain he also had pin feathers all over his head and I removed most of them.
THEN

Now:Much more colourful and his feathers are in much better condition

Now a little about Mango:He isn't a picky eater which is good and I could tell he really likes to fly even after I clipped him he still likes flying and I'm sure he will be very happy when his feathers grow back.He is also very calm and gets along with everybody,He eats most of the time and sleeps lol and he loves to play.He makes very nice sounds its a little loud but its nice and it makes me feel like I'm in a rainforest or something lol.He isn't tame yet but he isn't scared of me much as he was before.There is a lot more I could say about him but cant think of anything else to say right now.EDIT:Also Mango has a third eye lid I forget what its called but it protects his eyes and its transparent but you can see the yellow ring around it sometimes and I thought that was his iris but his iris is light blue.

He's very pretty! What kind of parrot/parakeet/macaw/bird/orchid is that?

He's a plum-headed parakeet. They're related to the Indian ringneck parakeet, which you can tell by their body structure, as well as the ring around the head.

I would think so. It's very rare to find them in captivity. I didn't even see them from the last bird show, and that was one of the bigger ones (granted, some of the usual vendors weren't there. Maybe they'll be there this year).

Thank you everybody he is lovely and yes they are very hard to find and I myself was not looking for one I saw him when looking in the bird jungle and he was housed with cockatiels and I was looking for a cockatiel friendly species and was gonna get a budgie but I was confused and luckily I went home with a travel cage instead and around 3 weeks later I brought Mango home after doing research on them.

The president of the Tucson bird club used to breed them, but she's retired now and doesn't breed birds any more. She still has a gorgeous plumhead male though.
