We were thinking of using the travel cage we bought (which is nice and big) as a sleep cage if it seems that Loki isn't getting the sleep he needs. The only drawback is that in our condo, there are not a whole lot of places to put him. He'd probably end up in the dressing area of our master bedroom, since it's somewhat enclosed. When we move however (in 3-4-5 years) Loki will end up getting his very own bedroom hehe .. naaa not spoiled at alllll.

Oh I figured that, just the last thing on my list to be worried about other then the three feedings schedual when Loki comes home. But, hey, if I have to get up early, feed him, and doze off for an hour or two, then no problem. Kim and I tend to be up until about 3am on the norm. wake up at around 10am. Kim works late evening shifts if you're wondering, and I wait up for her, so I can see her (i'm a night owl anyways). So for the fist few weeks I might have to get up at 7'ish to feed him, feed him again around noon, then when I get home around 10pm. Not exactly a perfect 7-8 hour between meals schedual, but I'm sure he'll be weaned off the 2 early meals in short order. I'll happily give him an evening one around 10pm when I get home for as long as he wants it.

It's what I do .. hehe :lol:

It will get hot and stuffy in there. Soundproofing works to absorb sound as a form of energy. That energy then turns to heat (it has to do something). I've been in a completely sound proof room when training in Television Broadcasting in college, it got hot in there really quickly. The cool part was I was able to hear my heart beating, the blood rushing through my veins, and the tendons of my body creaking as I moved. I was thinking of making the same thing for Loki, since Kim and I tend to be up late, and his cage is in our Livingroom near our TV. You'd have to be extreemly careful of letting air in and out, as well as heat. Enough vents that it would make a lot of the purpose of that cover moot.

Give me the link, let me see what I can do for you. I'm good with Photobucket and Youtube

They're where? They're online?

Ok, where are the video's? On your computer?

Told ya to use Youtube. It's free as well, 10 minute cap length on there too, so fair sized video's.

At the moment, Loki spends his days with about 150 other birds, 3 dogs, and 4 kids ... and the breeders hehe ... in two weeks it's just be Kim and I ... and his plethora of toys lol.

Hmm, we'll have to take a look into the mail in ones. Our vet said it was $48 ... *shrugs* hehe.

Ok, well, the aviator, bottle of poop-off, and first aid kit were included in my 200$ assessment, so we spent $110 on more toys today hehehehe.<br><br>Post edited by: Broomer, at: 2008/08/27 22:27

And toys? ... naaaa this bird ain't spoiled at all .... naaaaa... {Feel-good-0002006B}{Feel-good-0002006E}

Here's a shot at his carrier cage that we got him. Cheaper then the Adventure pack we were looking at.

All those toys? ... *mischevous laugh* :evil: ... Kim and I just got back from a Parrot store ... *innocent whistle :whistle:* only spent another ... 200$ :blink: on toys :woohoo: ... i'll upload the pictures in a few minutes hehehehe.

13 more days! hours and minutes will varie depending on what time we fall asleep (Read: if) and what time we get there to get him lol.

Also depends if we want to spend the 48$ to do it lol. We'll see

Loki works for both Male and Female .. since in the Norse myth, Loki was able to change sex at will to cause mischief

Eh, we might get him tested, if the vet demands it, that will tell us if we're doing it hehe.

That would be me .. and at the moment, we think She is a He .. but who knows

And here we go again, Our first visit this week to see Loki. He was still wet when we got there and all fluffy and happy to see us Wasn't as tramatized as he was with his first bath. Enjoy! Don't forget to check out the new videos too! (might still be processing) http://www.youtube.com/user/Bozzz71 All fluffed up! All comfy on Kim Scoping the room and hiding Dad's 'stache CHEEEEESE What was that?! <br><br>Post edited by: TalonSis, at: 2008/08/28 02:35

Thanks , We get to see him tomorrow, so I'll post some more pictures (even if he is a bit dirty hehe) and since Kim and I are on vacation, we'll probably see him on Thursday too. We're in the middle of remodeling our master bathroom (just stripping the evil wallpaper ((the creator of wallpaper should be held accountable for crimes against humanity)) and painting really.) so this is a busy week :blink:

Every time I check this topic .. I keep hearing this in the back of my mind.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0iDk_SRKcU Edit: Blasted link didn't work .. <br><br>Post edited by: Broomer, at: 2008/08/26 00:48

Our breeder clipped Loki last week before we got there. As for now, we don't mind, since we're in a 750 square foot condo with no where for him to fly (with 2 toilets, 3 sinks, a stove and a washing machine to worry about). I think we'll let those wings grow out once we move to let him learn to fly, but for right now, it would only be the living room, so just not fair to him since the rest of the condo would be somewhat off limits if we weren't in there with him.
