Talon

Okay, back to the topic here, or I'll have to go digging down deep for the Off-Topic Police!! :laugh: :laugh: Well, I met with a trainer this week at the gym, who among other things made me do 5 sets of 10 push-ups.... I didn't think I could even do one, so I surprised both him and me by doing all 50. Boy am I sore today!! :blink: But I did them again tonight, hopefully I won't be sore for long. :pinch:

Thanks Spooky, I will try that bulb instead. I did like the light, because it stretches up to 5 feet, my other light is balanced on 2 stools one on top of the other. :pinch:

Thanks siobha9 for reviving this. I agree! The pictures are soooo cute! :woohoo: Karma for you!! :cheer:<br><br>Post edited by: Talon, at: 2008/06/06 01:05

That's a very good idea Tracy. This light came without the bulb, then you had to purchase the recommended bulb separately, which I did from them. It came from Foster's and Smith.

OMG!!!! MY CURTAINS!!!!!! :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy: Very nice and great pictures as usual! :cheer:

UPDATE ON TALON!!! Yes, everyone, it was the light! I believe it had given her a sunburn, as every time she came out of her cage, it was very red!! I had taken that light away, and put her old light back. It too does shine on the side of her cage, but it never made her eye red. I have yet to turn it on. I'm trying to give her eye a long healing time to make sure it doesn't flair up again. I called the vet and let him know in case he ever encounters something like this again. It sure would have saved a traumatic time for us had it been something he suggested, but I guess he never heard of this. It was a special avian light for birds, I believe it will stay in the basement never to be used again. What a waste of $80.00 :pinch:

Very nice Melissa! They're looking a little fat....perhaps they need to go on a diet?! :blink:

Talon leaves all the sunflower seeds in tact in her food bowl. She doesn't like to eat them.

She may not bite during those terrible two's Judy. Not all greys go thru that biting faze. I believe she is too sweet to do so, just like you! {Love-00020116}

THose are amzing photo's! You are a very talented artist and photographer!B)

Yes, I too would love to know how you hung that swing. It looks great!!

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share this photo with you. My two were getting ready to claim the bag of treasured trash!! :pinch: Of course, Talon won as usual!! Talon has put my dog in his place early on. :lol: <br><br>Post edited by: Talon, at: 2008/06/05 21:40

Eric, welcome. I am so sorry for your loss. Both you and your grey are grieving. It will take him probably longer than you to adjust. He doesn't understand where she is. Please stay patient, and loving as you are to him. I hope we can help you here. Please feel free to ask away. The bonding process for you will take a long time maybe, but it will be so worth it, and your wife will be very happy as she looks down and sees you two.

Welcome to our family. Sounds like you hit the terrible two's as I did with Talon. The biting started then....:pinch: Glad you joined, and are so open to wanting to learn as much as you can here to help with your wanting to improve the bond you two share. I highly respect you for such an effort, it will pay off in years of love. B)

I disagree here. Talon said actual words at 4 months old. I spent a lot of time talking to her, and teaching her words. She picked up many on her own as well, but she is easy to teach a word to. Some words, she's just plain stubborn and won't say for many months, then one day, she will just come out with it. But other words, she has learned in as quick as a day-2 weeks. So you see, all greys are different, and some will never talk. <br><br>Post edited by: Talon, at: 2008/06/05 21:27

Hello & Welcome! 6 months is young for some greys to talk. Just keep talking to him, having patience, and know that he probably won't talk until at least a year old, or not at all. Love him unconditionally. B)

Hello & Welcome. How old are your greys? I look forward to hearing more about you and your 2 babies. B)

Hi Tony, and Welcome! I know exactly how you feel about Fluffy! I'm glad you joined, and I look forward to hearing more from you. B)

Hello and Welcome! I'm glad you joined our family here. I look forward to seeing and hearing more! B)
