He sure is a cutie. I guess when he gets big enough to fly, you'll then be able to tell what species he is. He sure is a tubby little guy!!!

Hi Nick and congratulations on becoming a grey parront! Karma to you for choosing to re-home a grey. Is Partner your first parrot? From his pictures he looks very handsome and certainly very healthy. Welcome to the family!!!

Congratulations on Murphy's homecoming!!! He is very handsome. Thanks for sharing him with us!!!!

Ana Grey chewed on the gold chain to my crucifix the first day she was home. Never did find the gold chain!!! Broke my heart But she has made up for doing that a thousand fold!!!

Wow, I consider myself very lucky. Ana Grey so far has been a very good girl!!! I did step barefoot once in a poop on the newspaper, but that was my own fault!!!:sick:

Cassandra, wow those are such cute photos of Darwin. Look have grown up he is!!! Thanks for sharing him with us!!!

I waited until my children were all adults and I retired before I got my birds. They are my saviors and keep me sane!!! Well more sane than usual!!!

My birds are out of their cages when I am home. I let them out around 9:00 am and they are out until 9:00 pm unless I go to the store, kids, appointments, etc. But are immediately let out once I come home!!!

My two birds, grey and eclectus both turn their noses up at Almonds but love peanuts, pecans, walnuts, pine nuts. Almonds they don't like, go figure!!!!

Hi Karen, welcome to the family.

Hi spineyro, welcome to the family. Simi is a very nice looking TAG. If you have more pictures of Simi, we would love to see them.

Congratulations, on your baby hatching. If I remember right, your Dad was going to hand-feed your baby for you. When will your Dad be getting your baby?<br><br>Post edited by: luvparrots, at: 2009/05/12 03:34

:lol: Ahhhh, Adaya is a real little smartie pants. She is beautiful and now also very clean!!! :lol:

Angie, checked out your grey on Photobucket and Millie is a very fine looking grey. Thank you for sharing her with us!!!

Thanks!!!!

Thanks everyone!!!! This morning Sully (Solomon) woke me up with a big squawk, I am not a morning person . So I sang, "Good morning to you" from the comfort of my bed. He quieted down quickly, either my singing soothed him or my singing scared him to death :lol: and he decided if he was real quiet the horrible sound might go away!!!:unsure: It worked for whatever reason. When I got up I did the normal procedure, "Let's get up, Lily," "Hi" to Ana and the "Hey come here, open the door" routine. When Sully hear me he started his earth shattering shriek and I said "Good morning" and told him I'll be back." And headed to the kitchen to prepare their breakfast. Sully shrieked and I started to sing "You are my Sunshine" he shrieked louder so I went back to his favorite "Good Morning to You" he stopped!!!! He must like my high notes!!! I misted Sully (Solomon) this morning with Aloe Vera juice, he is used to spray bathing this way so it was okay! As the morning went on when I left the room, I would say "I'll be back" and now he waits for me without shrieking. This has always worked for Ana Grey and now it seems that it will work for Sully too. I am so grateful!!!!:silly: I hate having to have Sully in a smaller cage, he is twice as big and Ana Grey and her cage is so much larger then his. I have let him out and he goes to the top of the cage and back in at leisure. Thursday can't come soon enough for his larger cage to get here. I so much like the convenience of Ana Grey's full-front opening to her cage, that I got an identical one for Sully at a $50 reduction in cost!!!:cheer: I have purchased an extra boing for Sully and his own larger toys. Because I had no idea how small Ana Grey was going to be, Sully has several toys that are now his, these were way too big for Ana Grey and now they won't go to waste!!!:cheer: Erika and all the other Ekkie owners, I'm sure glad I have you all to help me if I run into a snag. I hope I don't drive you all to drink with my ignorance when it comes to these magnificent creatures!!! I was told Sully doesn't play with toys but he has been playing with his ball (well he throws it over the end of the cage for me to fetch for him anyway!! )

Hi Leon and Zulu. Can't wait to see some pictures of Zulu and hear more about her. Welcome to the family!

Happy Mother's Day Judy!!!!! I had my Mother's Day yesterday (lunch with oldest daughter, dinner with son, and a lovely bouquet of roses from my California girl). My children are all married and have families, so my daughters and daughter-in-law get today with my compliments to be properly adored by their spouses as it should be! I'm having dinner today with my oldest grandson, hopefully he will cook it!!!!

The meds work for Lily within an hour of receiving them> She is fine this morning; no breathing problems. So Lily is allergic to something, since Ana Grey is the only new thing in the house, I can only assume it is her dander. If this second round of meds doesn't keep Lily clog free then I will re-arrange the rooms so that my office is then Ana Grey free and Ana Grey and Sully (Solomon) are placed in a new bird room (2nd bedroom). I'm glad Sully is dander free!!!!

Great News Melissa!!!!! Can't wait to hear of your baby's homecoming and see some pictures!!!!

Annmarie, Alex certainly is getting to be a big boy! Thanks for sharing him with us. I'm sure you'll hear from some members who have both kinds of greys. I have a TAG and she is a totally cuddley feather ball! Much smaller than a CAG.

Last night Lily, the pug, was breathing raggedly so first thing this morning I called her vet and renewed her Temaril-P. Within a hour she was breathing so much better so we'll try this dose for 10 days then see where we are. I'm so happy Eclectus parrots don't have dander!!!
