Talon

Great idea, I live in the country and never think to venture out to get free toys.....

Wow, that was adorable!!!l

Yes, what is it about the vacume that sets them into bath mode.....maybe it resembles a thunder storm? Thus the rain setting off baths? I know, a crazy thought.....

You guys are too funny! I love Dans idea........just a few minutes ago, I was TRYING to relax on the couch with my iPad driving my coffee, when Rikki decided to be brave and go where she's never gone before...the fireplace mantel where she found the loose change bowl....one by one throwing the coins onto the floor and going after once she realized how cool the sound was.....being lazy on this rainy Saturday.....my daughter and I just watched and laughed! All the time in the back of my mind, I was wondering....who the hell is going to pick all these coins up??????

Happy Birthday Josey! My goodness, it seems like yesterday when your momma first posted on the forum all about you. It's because of you Josey that I had the honor to be your mommas friend, and for that you will always hold a special place in my heart just like your momma does. I hope you get spoiled rotten today, and I have no doubt you will. You have made your momma and papa very happy and I know you will continue too. I wonder........do you laugh like your momma? She has an infectious laugh and quite the accent. I would love one day for you to make your debut here.....it's been a long time coming.....how bout it now that your a big 7 year old like Talon and Rikki?

That is adorable!!! He LOVES you!!!!

Welcome to our family, I look forward to hearing more about your flock!

How stunning! thanks for sharing...

Welcome to,our greyt family. I look forward to hearing more from you. We love pictures, if you have any of your sun conure, please post! And don't worry about your English, we don't mind at all. How old will your baby be when you get him?

Birdhouse, I have found out what happened....I am sorry to say, havoc was reeked while I was asleep last night on the forum. I now know who did the damage, although I can't undo a lot of it, the members responsible will not be back under my watch, under an alias or ever....I have many watchful eyes here now. We will do our best to keep things on track back where this forum belongs.

I go nowhere.....don't trust anyone with 6 birds, 3 would be,fine, but my 3 larger ones would not do well. Nilah is being difficult to handle by anyone other than me theses days. Haven't had a holiday vacation in many many years....I got divorced, that was the best vacation, and I am still on it!

I was working at my computer after work today,many my father called to tell me that the local news said my town was going to get hit by a tornado in 22 minutes....some called my kids and told them to come home. We packed up the birds in their travel cages, luckily I learned here from Nancy and Janet, that they should always be right next to their cages just in case......I was happy I listened to that advice. I packed them into their travel cages, put them in the basement, my kids got the parakeets, their cage, we carried downstairs, and my daughter put Piper into his travel cage. I grabbed some food, snacks and water. We gathered up the 3 cats, 2 dogs, blankets (our basement is cold) and cell phones, and a radio and batteries. We were told to stay in the basement for an hour till it was suppose to pass. We did..... The birds were great, they seems fine since we were there with them. We came upstairs after and all was well. We had no tornado! But it was a great dry run and I was happy to have had the practice. Next time I will be more prepared, food and water, radio, batteries all packed in an emrgency bag that I can just grab and as Nancy says, not have to think and worry if you have everything.

YES!!!!! She has been missed, ad she doesn't even know it. Welcome Back, and I look forward to hearing LOTS more from her!!

There are NO silly questions here. My birds do that as well. It seems to be their way of being affectionate in letting you know they missed you and are loving your return home. My birds do it in the morning and when I was gone all day .

You have to click on the Remember me box when you log in, otherwise it throws you out for some stupid reason...

Really?? hmm. I will email the tech dept asap.

okay, sorry, can't do anything about changing the Thanks count, but I gave you a boost in you post count.. It should show up in your next post...

The only way a thanks count would change, was if someone removed their Thanks...but I will see if I can sneak in the door and boost it back up...You've taken enough of a hit in the past here, and have hung in with us. Things will be changing here for the positive. so feel free to post away!

Do you remember the number it was? I can go in and fix it, but I have no idea how that would happen.

hmm. when did you notice the drop...? I f you deleted any of your posts, the it will change your number to reflect that....

I am going to have to try this cookware....I do miss the non stick Teflon, although I know it is unhealthy for us as well as our birds, so I am glad to not be using it, but I would love something other than stainless steel scrubbing..

Thanks for the out loud giggle...almost poured my coffee out my nose!!!

Talon has destroyed 5, yes 5 laptop keyboards.......only 2 were mine....and she can do it in under2 minutes, so there are only about 10 keys left

Jeff, glad you are safe, must be so scary when you have not only family but pets to worry about too. It's sad it takes such a tragedy to make us realize what's really important. Prayers to all.

I do allow my birds to eat meat, mostly chicken and turkey, occasionally a bit of hamburg. But always cooked and never raw due to my fear of ecoli, etc...
