These
are my white belly caiques, Trouper and Ripley. Caiques are known
as clowns and these two certainly are, as can be seen in this picture.
Caiques love to play, hang upside down, and they hop like bunnies, so
cute to see. Just hop, hop, hop across the floor. They squeal like pigs
in protest if they are having fun and I try to move them. They do a
perfect wolf whistle if they are happy, so there is a lot of whistling
going on.
Caiques love to surf on things, they rub their body back and forth on
towels or in hair and these two are no exception. Ripley loves to surf
in my hair. Their coloring is also very distinct in the parrot world.
They are the only multicolored parrot with a white belly. They look like
jigsaw puzzles! In my opinion, they are best pets. Trouper and Ripley
two love each other, but they also love to be with people and love to be
cuddled and touched - when they aren't busy hanging upside down. If you
are curious, you can read more about caiques.
