    Yippee!

    Momma keep talking about getting the itch to go to the Disney land bird store again...I know that means lots of new toys for us to destroy. Nilah thinks she's going with momma this time...ha, I'm older than her, and I know I never get to go.....won't she be surprised when momma leaves her in her cage for the entire day and night!! I hope momma goes soon!! Momma keeps talking about that darn tax refund again...still don't know what that is, maybe it's how she gets there...then why would she not go right away? Doesn't she know we are bored with the same old stuff? we want NEW stuff!!! I may try and throw a block at her like Wingy did...hmm
  3. I had it in storage for a while, I used it for about a month or so before I realized what the cause of Talons eye was.
  4. I bought mine elsewhere and on sale. After dealing with what I went thru with Talon's eye. I didn't care how much I had to spend to make sure thatTalon was safe, what I had for my other birds, never had a problem with those lights, so I played it safe.
  5. Welcome! Issac is a beauty! I look forward to hearing more, hoe long have you had Isaac?
  6. I use the full spectrum bulbs that coms with it. I have dome top cages, but I have rope swirl perches hanging from the top and they perch on the top of them with no problems.
  7. FYI: It was the second model. This is what I use on all of my 5 bird cages: http://www.amazon.com/FeatherBrite-White-Capitol-Universal-Light/dp/B0002PCSMG/ref=sr_1_4/182-3582332-4887359?ie=UTF8&qid=1389980422&sr=8-4&keywords=avian+light I rest it on the top of their cages, I remove them at night as I cover my birds at night.
  8. 3 weeks & we did it!!! I'm probably more happy about it than Nilah is, although, her personality is starting to come back, she is excited and is finally talking more like before! So I'm thinking she is happy too!
  9. Please be careful with this light especially: AvianSun Deluxe Floor Lamp I purchased one and positioned it just as it shows. MY tag got a very badly sunburned eye which which at first the vet thought was an eye infection. We treated her with eye drops for 2 weeks with no relief before I realized it was the light burning her eye. Once I removed it and tossed the entire light & bulb it in the trash, her eye cleared up in a few days. I previously used a different light that sits on the top of her cage, I went back to that with with no problems.
  10. I live in the country, no bad air outside, but I have noticed a deduction in the dander, and the air just seems cleaner inside. My son has asthma and after putting them thru my house and each kid had one in their bedroom, he rarely had any asthma problems. I have on in my bedroom next to Talons sleep cage, and when I vacuum the filter once a week, it is covered in bird dander. I had bought the ones that were advertised in Bird Talk for many years. But I know they don't have a very good business reputation. JWR Germicidal Bird Systems is the brand. I don't know if they sell them anymore, but I have a lifetime supply of filters and bulbs. They come with a filter than can be vacuumed and washed as well as a germicidal bulb. I run them 24/7.
  11. Yes, I use an air cleaner. It really makes a world of difference. I have many throughout my house.

    Sick Baby

    Muse, I am in tears over your loss. I am so sorry, you did everything so fast to help him. YOU are certainly not to blame. Please know that time will lessen the pain, although you will never forget. You are always welcome and I hope to see you again in time here. Your family cares about you and your flock. YOU have much to share..
  13. With 3 cages, I probably couldn't turn it to zoom in.
  14. Wow, I would love a zoom in one, but its out of my budget. I will have to live with what I have.
  15. Jeez, I don't think I can help, other than to say my D-link was inexpensive, simple to set up and I access it on all computers and any cell phone anytime.
  16. Wow, that just goes to show you how must trust she has in you.
  17. Ah...well when the cat's away...the mice do play!
  18. OMG! How do you get her to lay still on her back like that? What a greyt picture!
  19. I have one I now (thanks to you guys) run at 74 in my bird room. I have a big house and keep my thermostat at 70 when I am home and 67 when I am at work or sleeping. I hate the cold!
  20. MY parrots don't like the dehydrated fruits or veggies.. I feed frozen veggies a lot Don't forget, NO GARLIC to your birds.

    Piper!

    Here is a little video of my daughter.(the chosen one) and Piper. HE spits at me constantly...but LOVES my daughter. He loves it when she blows lightly on the back of his neck as you can see.
  22. I have had an ongoing problem with Talon opening up my kitchen cupboards, climbing inside to perch on whatever bowl or dish she finds. That doesn't sound so bad, but my dishes, glasses etc. get covered with bird dander! OR she chews up whatever she can find, OR she throws stuff onto the floor...I have tried everything you can imagine. SO , here I am, sitting on the couch trying to watch tv, and jumping up every couple of minutes to yell at her or spray her with water to get her off. SO.. here is my newest solution and it seems to be working...EXCEPT when I, or one of my kids forgets to look up, and we open a cupboard to get a dish only to get hit in the head...YES, my kids aren't to happy about it, but oh well! If you click on the blurred pic, you can see the video tour of my new décor!
