I haven't been here in a while. I just wanted to give everyone an update on Coco (our CAG). She is doing great and really talking a lot now (too much somtimes:laugh:) Bandit (our Severe Macaw) is doing really well also. Both our birds are a real joy to have.

Who would have thought there would be an earthquake in Illinois,and we would feel it in Alabama:ohmy:

We woke up this morning at 4:36am by the sound of Coco (our CAG)thrashing around in her cage.She was very scared,but I couldn't figure out what the problem was.I found out a little later that Illinois had an earthquake at the exact same time that was felt over 800 miles away.My wife or I either one felt it but Coco must have:ohmy:<br><br>Post edited by: jdr, at: 2008/04/18 19:08

Is it a good ideal to keep pellets in the food bowl at all times? Just curious as to what most of you do.

Coco has been making a lot of new sounds and whistles lately,but so far no talking that I know of.I have no ideal where she could be hearing these sounds that she has been making.

Just,wondering Do you give your grey a bath with water,and then spray them with aloe,or just spray them with aloe only?

Sorry for the double post

The Blue and Gold became infected with Aspergillosis,the owner stated that the bird had almost no signs of illness.Even after being in the care of a vet for six weeks they still could not safe him.I may be wrong about the amount of time with the vet can't remember.

Got my first issue of Bird Talk in the mail,wow it got here a lot faster than I expected.I think we will like getting them on the mail better than paying $4.50 at the pet store:P I have got to say the story about the Blue & Gold was sad:(<br><br>Post edited by: jdr, at: 2008/04/03 18:48

Last night we noticed that Coco had another tail feather in her mouth.That's the second tail feather she has pulled out,but it was probably two weeks ago when she pulled out the other.I'm hoping maybe it's just a moult coming on.

Can someone please describe what pin feathers look like? thanks

I have Sirius,I really like it. Yes you can use it in the house or car,also you can get one that you can carry around.As far as which one is best i don't know.I did hear something about a merger but I don't know any details.<br><br>Post edited by: jdr, at: 2008/03/26 20:39

Just wanted to make sure it is safe for birds.I googled Sisal rope and it mention hemp so I thought it might be about the same.

Does anyone know if this about the same thing as Sisal rope?

When making homemade toy what do you use for the chain.

Does your grey preen alot? Coco seems to preen more than my Severe Macaw.

Thanks,very good read.

Oh I almost forgot she also does another sound,but I don't know what you call it..you know the sound you make when calling the dog not the whistle sound the other one.The ticking sound?
