Talon

Hi Mandi, and I'm very glad you are finally home. Let's hope it's for good this time. I'm sure it will be a while until the excitement from Buddy and your dogs die down. Please keep us posted, and tell that hubby to get some rest too! Glad your back!! {Love-0002011E}

I just went through this with many pm's with Tari. As we recently purchased 2 parakeets, and have to quarantine them even after a vet check up. The recommended time was 45 days. I did not know this, and wish I had. One of them was in the same room with Talon for a short period of time. Has I read it in the FAQ section BEFORE purchasing them. I would have had less worries. So PLEASE do write about it and post in that section. Many people are not aware of this.

Let me know how it works!! :silly:

Joe, I think you have quite the waiting list. Put me on it as well!

Wow! That's a great tip. I say, we should all try it........say at 12 noon next Sunday?! B) :blink:

I try to use it, but Talon hates it, so I have to use it sparingly. It is very good for their feathers, keeps them healthy and shiny too! :cheer:

That's Great! Never thought to try fresh basil.....thanks for the idea. :cheer:

Toni, I'm very happy for you! And I love the name you picked. I bet you can't wait!!:pinch:

Wow! This is going to be a hard contest.........:unsure: Such great pictures so far!:cheer:

Great pictures everyone! They're going to look great in the video!! I can't wait! {Nature-000200C9}

cCngratulation's! I'm so happy all went well. What a long trip home!! Sounds like she is really happy. Keep us posted, and I'm looking forward to seeing more pictures!

Nothing wrong here. All is well!! :)

Hi Fritzysmom, Welcome to our family. We'd love it if you introduced yourself in our Welcome Room. I'm sorry to say I am from the US, but I'm sure some other members can help you find it more easily. Looking forward to hearing more about you and your grey. Please post pictures, we love them!

Ya, LEAVE our dreams alone everyone!!! :evil: :evil:

Hi Nick, and welcome to our family! We're happy to help in any way we can. Dan & Judy are right. There is al ot of information here about training and teaching your grey to talk. Just do a search and you'll get lots of information. We're happy to answer any questions you may have. Looking forward to seeing pictures and hearing more about you and your grey.

Aaah! Now that's even better! I knew you had my back as always. Thanks Judy, you're a sweetheart! {Love-000200BF} BUT! Across the ocean is another beautiful island filled with exotic flowers, birds, and plentiful with delicious fruits to eat,and palm trees everywhere. The real Prince Charming is waiting for you there, and he had a special castle built just for you, and an outdoor aviary for Josey and Sunny!

Judy, I knew you would be the one to wreck my dream! I didn't even get to enjoy it for a little while.......{Feel-bad-00020072}

But your prince charming turns into a frog after that first kiss! And you're castle gets infested with spiders. I wish I lived on a tropical island with many parrots and a gorgeous long haired god to help me take care of them. B)

I second everything everyone here says!! {Communicate-000200D5}

Makena, that is a great idea for people living in conditions that may or even may not warrant it. I might suggest maybe some dried fruits of veggies stored in airtight containers. They do keep well. I hope you never have to use it, but it's wonderful that you are being so prepared for him.

I cover Talon at night. That lets her know it's time for bed.
