In Reply to: I Found a parakeet at my office.. posted by Jessica on April 18, 2005 at 20:47:40:

: A couple of guys in the shop at my office brought me this blue parakeet today.. He was hungry and he is kind of skinny.. I work for the wildllife refuge, but I mostly take care of blue jays, mocking birds, doves, etc.. but never a domestic pet? He was someone's pet.. he is extremely friendly and will give you kisses and he loves people, and i've only had him home for about an hour. He is pretty small compared to the ones I have seen in pet stores, i would like to know how old he is just incase there are certain things that i need to do for a younger parakeet?.. can someone help me.. ? We are going to keep him.. he is so sweet and he gets a long with our lovebirds so well. Thanks.

If there are black bars on the forehead, then the keet is less than a few months old. If the forehead is white, all you can tell is that it's older than a few months. If the bird has a closed band, it will probably list the year of hatching.
