Talon

Yikes! Yes, this unusual. You re right, that is a lot of sugar. My tag loves juice, but she only gets juice as a nighttime treat. I put a tiny amount in a cup and hold it while she takes a few sips before bed. It's her nighttime ritual. All other times of the day it's water. My cag only drinks water, and my amazon likes juice if I offer it, but I rarely do. I would wean her off of it, or cut it with water to dilute it little by little.

Jeez, you guys make Nilah sound like a sex addict! She has gone thru this for the last 2 years, from spring all thru the summer every day when I get one from work. I won't go into details, but I'm her substitute mate.....in the beginning as per the advice I got here, I discouraged it, even getting up and leaving the room. But that left her so frustrated, she would become a brat misbehaving. When i finally ignored it and allowed her to satisfy herself while perched on me , she would become quite happy and content and a sweetheart..... So........ She's finally calmed down now, and here it is the end of August.

I love this! This is something crazy my nephews would love to do. Oh and for the record, they aren't rednecks....

How warm is his room? Perhaps he loves the heat from it?

I wonder if maybe he doesn't like it so close. My tag got a severe sunburn from that same kind of light on her eye. Or maybe you should add a few more hanging toys near the top to play with.

So glad to hear Mama is back with her flock. Doesn't it just warm you from the inside out when they show you how much they have missed you. They have such a way of making you feel their love and how attached to you they are. That should speed up her recovery!

I am not a big fan of trick training, so I cant be of any help. However, Welcome, and please post in the Welcome Room so we can learn more about you & your grey. Also, we LOVE pics! Greys tend to decide on their own who they choose to be their favorite within a family. It sometimes changes over the years, but you just never know and you cant force yourself to be the favorite..

Oh my....my heart aches for you so badly. I read your story and felt like I was there. You did the best you could, don't beat yourself up. Accidents happen, and it was a tragic accident. I know many people arent aware, but a cat has a chemical in its saliva and claws that are toxic to birds and rodents. It won't kill it immediately, but over a short period of time, it will kill them. It can happen from a bite or a scratch. That may be the case here. I'm not a vet, but I know this for a fact. That is why many people say, "cat scratch fever" , a human actually will itch in the spot when you get scratched by a cat. My prayers to ease your pain are being said tonight. I am glad the suffering for Jas was short. He knows you loved him. Time will lessen the pain, be patient and forgiving of yourself.

I kind of figured I'd get flack about the unhealthy kool pop. Lol But it was all in fun, they get a tiny taste abut once or twice a year. I really don't believe it will harm them considering it isn't something they get very often.... gosh, Talon loves cold things, snow and ice, and Rikki usually hates anything cold, so this was a rare thing for her to try.

The lesson to be learned here.....YOU MUST SHARE!

I Love that he wants to go water the flowers. It's so funny to hear Dayo talk, all my birds talk in a girls voice. I'm not used to hearing apart talk,in a mans voice. Although Rikki used to, but no longer, she sounds more like an old hag.....

I don't worry about my birds getting sunflower seeds like Dan, it is in their seed mix. Rikki my cag LOVES them, Talon my tag, doesn't like them. Taln loves safflower tho. rikki, not so much. Then there is Nilah, she eats anything!

Nancy, all you have to do is click the star on the bottom left of their post to up their reputation.

Nancy, I sent you a pm 2 days ago. Please send a picture if Kiki.

Nancy, have you listed Kiki on 911 parrot alert? Idont see her there. It may be helpful.

Aww. How sad. I would get a fleece hut. It's comforting, and after a while, you may find she loves it like my Talon does.

I didn't know that.

Happy Birthday Ana Grey! You've always had a special place my heart as I've watched you grow!

Wow! ThAts wonderful! I wish I had one like that in my backyard. Maybe one day

Thanks! That's great! I just ordered 2!

Sorry also. I got divorced almost 6 years ago. Talon really liked my ex and my oldest son. They both stayed behind and the rest of us moved into a new house. She seemed fine with it all. She had me all to herself, no other birds except parakeets at the time. They do adapt very well.

What an adorable baby!

Congratulations. Wow, that is young for an amazon. My breeder wouldn't let hers go until they were weaned which was 6 months. Good luck to you and obviously you know what you are doing. Can't wait to see pics!

I would never buy this, Nilah would perch on it all the time. I have celling fans and have never once had my birds fly into them, they are too high to the ceiling. Nilah will fly to them sometimes when they are off, and when I turn it on low, ride it like a merry go round. When I want her off, I spins it fast with my hand and off she flies.
