Hey guys, Can your Grey wave? How did you teach him and how long did it take? This looks really cute and i want too teach tequila to wave as well! Enjoy your day/night

{Communicate-00020121} Cant wait to hear your stories!!

hey thank CD i also find that tip usefull!! What kinda mixed veggies are they though?

hey ice, just remember that they have different taste in things so what might not be tasty for you might be tasty for them.... I haven't started the veggies with tequila yet only starting next week. Here are lots of people here that would be able to assist you better!

wow Talon that looks awesome!!!{Feel-good-000200BB}

What's a typical day like at your house? Get up at 7am then go open Tequila. While I’m doing my morning stuff like brushing teeth and all that I talk to tequila and ask her how she slept and so on. How often is your bird out of their cage? I take Tequila out of the cage as soon as I finished my morning duties. That’s round about 9:00am. Then she’s out of the cage for about the rest of the day. I put her in the cage when I think she is hungry or wants to eat and I leave the cage door open and when she wants to go out she can whenever she wants to. How often are they put on a play stand? I put her on the play stand quite often to see if she feels like playing if she doesn’t want too she flies back to me. She likes me as a play stand because she finds my hair and ears amusing! How much time do you spend actually handling your parrot? Like I said she likes being close to me and sitting on me so I handle her a lot. She likes it when I talk to her and pet her and tell her what a pretty birdie she is!! What's your cleaning routine like? I take out the old papers wipe the bottom of the cage with a wet cloth and make sure it’s nice and clean then I wash his bowls and put in fresh food and water. The toys I wash as soon as I see he made a poop on them or I just wipe it clean with a cloth. Once or twice a week I clean the whole cage meaning that I clean the whole thing from top to bottom. What time do you cover/uncover their cage? I cover the cage when I go to bed, that’s around 10:30pm or sometimes when I see him sleeping I’ll cover him a little earlier. I open her around 7am in the morning. How often do you feed them? I give Tequila her formula in the morning. I also put in fresh seed… (Parrot mixture). I also give her dried fruits for snacks which she really likes as well as peanuts. From next week I’ll be introducing her to fresh fruit and veggies. At about 6:30 I give her formula and then put another mixture of parrot feed in her bowl that has in some peas and corn and some mixed seeds as well as fresh water. Do you take them outside, in the car, on vacation etc? I take her with me outside if she is sitting with me and I have to go outside. I haven’t taken her in the car yet. I also haven’t been on vacation since I got her so I’ll see when I get there. Now I just want to say to Mickey and me….. This is really an interesting post. I like reading things like this, seeing how other people’s life’s are with their feathered friends. Thanks!!! {Feel-good-000200BB}

Splint they all look WOW!!! The ones I like most are the one @ the bin and the one on the coffee table!! Cute birdie you have there!

Lol the vulture part was funny though... lol lol

here it is....

Here is one pic... Like I said it is a kitchen scale...<br><br>Post edited by: Karla, at: 2007/06/02 20:37

mmmm guys guys guys.... i'm not joking..... This really is what the scale says. I even took pictures. I even weighed other stuff on the scale and believe me its quite Accurate! The pics i took isn't that clear but if you look closely you'll see....

LOL{Feel-good-0002006E} That was about an hour or so after he ate?!

I weighed Tequila just about 30min ago and he weighed 600g.... mmmm I think it's impossible!

how accurate would a kitchen scale be?

From fointains circle would be fine..... You really dont have to but it would be nice! Even if you could only maybe give me the Street name I'll look it up. Wil nie vir jou onnodig moeite maak nie! Thanx

I'll be going 2 that place on sat. Cant wait!!! I'll be going 2 birds for africa 2.... if I find the place! But I'll ask around. {Nature-0002009B}

Hey Judy, Well so far so good... Tequila is really cute and each day I'm just more and more happy to have him around!! He really is very cute and funny. I dont know why i didn't get a grey much earlier! {Love-0002011E} Now I'm inlove with tequila.

yes Splint thats a bargain.... did you buy the other things in your cage at that place 2? Here is a petshop here close by but they are really expensive with the toys stuff. They have like a plastic thing that will fit in my hand if I hold my hand open and it has little balls inside that makes it like a rattle, the balls are almost like BB gun bullets and they sell that silly little thing for almost R80.

just checking something

Looks good Splint.... Wa het jy daai dingetjie gekoop waarop hy sit? Ekke wil ook so 1netjie he!! {Nature-00020095}

Thanx for the tip splint... Where about is this place? Maybe you have their tel no? The cage i would really like is about R3500.

ya i guess thats true, I'm gonna have to save some money to buy a bigger cage coz they really are expensive here... Maybe in two or three months.... Btw Tequila is still only a baby. I dont have many toys either but I'm going to buy some this weekend. The other day i bought him a nice colourfull ladder and he seems to enjoy the ladder he gets all excited and makes funny noises. Ahhhh He is so cute!

Ya like Splint said.... Hope you enjoy it here in S.A!!! and try see as many things/places Possible{Characters-0002005F}
