Talon

I'm excited for you. Keep us posted! B)

I agree with Dan & Dave. You couldn't ask for any better advice. That being said, I DID teach Talon to say our phone number in 2 days. Of course it is a very easy number.....665-6652. I made the 2 sound very exciting, we would say TWO very high pitched! But she has stopped saying it, as I haven't continued to say it to her. So as far as changing your phone number, your bird could relearn a new one, even if she repeated 2 phone numbers, she has a chance of one of them working....:huh:

Happy Mothers Day to all in the UK! {Love-0002011D}

Carol, I was the same way. If I didn't hear from her for a few days, then I thought that was it, and I wasn't getting a bird.... Hang in there, it will e over soon.

I didn't make one, but I do have a baby picture of Talon hanging next to my desk on the wall. B)

I think a baby bird book is a wonderful idea!! :woohoo:

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing with us. I am in Massachusetts, and March is BROWN.........so I am happy to see a sign of spring! :woohoo:

What is an atom.....?????? Is it the double round circle thing? If it is, Judy, I invested in one, and it is the best thing I ever bought. Both my birds love it! I have it hanging near my kitchen table in front of the window, and one of them is always playing on it. I have toys hanging from the middle of it.

{Feel-good-0002006B} I agree!! My birthday is coming up in May, so this is an early present!! :woohoo:

I too, use hand lotion and perfume. As long as you aren't spraying it near them, I leave the room. It is safe. B)

How cute!

Thank you!! I went out by myself and had a few strawberry daiquiris!! I like the idea of a freedom party!!:woohoo: :woohoo:

THANK YOU EVERYONE!!! Thank you all for your well wishes and prayers for me today. It's finally over!! You guys have been great, knowing you were here to support me, helped me gather up the strength I needed. He went down kicking and screaming, but the divorce was granted! Still some financial ties to finish up, but at least now it's in writing! Thanks guys, I can't ask for a better family here! Love to you all! Penny

This is totally inappropriate here in this forum, but I need the support of all my family members here today. I have been going thru a messy divorce, for the last year and a half, and today it may FINALLY come to an end. Please keep me in your thoughts, I need all the support I can get, the ex is not making it easy for me.......(it doesn't help that I work as his bookkeeper right up until the time we have to go to court!) :ohmy: I hope to come back tonight with a Woo Hoo! It's finally over message!! Wish me luck everyone.....I am off to court now. Thank you Judy for all your support, you've seen me thru this for the last 2 1/2 years! Luv you girl!!:kiss:

We still have 2 feet of snow waiting to melt, and it was 16 here last night....... :(

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Depending how low the temp. gets, and access to food and water. It is hard to predict. The good news is, I live about 3 hours from NYC and the temps have been pretty good. When I had my bird shipped, I was told they could survive temps down into the mid twenty's, but not for long periods of time. I hope you find her soon. You are both in my prayers for a safe return.

I remember waiting for that plane to get Talon....how excited I was!! And worried that something would go wrong, but all was well!! I can't wait for the day you go to get him. I'd love to share that day with you, it will bring back such wonderful memories for me, please keep us posted here when that happens! B)

OMG!!! How adorable!! I can't wait to follow he/she as he grows. Please keep them coming!! :)

Well, we are happy you are here! We really are family, and love sharing our ives with each other. When are we going to see pictures of your family? Go to the "Grey owner what do you look like" thread.

Addicted?..................I don't see a problem.....:lol: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Okay, found it! I hope this helps you make your own decision. B) http://www.exoticpetvet.net/avian/dairy.html

Nychsa, I will go back and find it, and post the link here. But you may find, that your vet will not agree with the research. Many vets have their own opinions, and will stick with them based on the research they have. I for one don't want to risk my birds, so it is a personal decision for me. I tend to air on the side of caution...an over protect mom! A small amount of milk is not harmful to them either, so the lactose free milk might be okay in a very small quantity too.

Welcome to our family. I look forward to seeing pictures and hearing more from you.B)

Lactose free milk is not okay to give to your birds. In the research I have done, it is more harmful than regular milk itself.

Very Clever! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
