umm can someone close this?? i didnt expect everyone to freak out

Thnx well try to bring in a diff word

Btw yes pepper is my child also but she IS still a bird. It is not that big of a deal. I am a well respected nanny and my job is working with kids but of course I don't swear around them. Do we swear around pepper? Yes. because she happens to pick up on it doesn't mean anything

Mhm

LOl. Okay

I dont think its a big deal, but I figured people here would. I decided to share it anyway. Pepper is NOT ever going to be re-homed. I wouldn't give her up for anything. Not even a million dollars. Quite frankly, I think its funny!

i hope shes okay. im such a paranoid/nervous person. cant help it; i love my bird to death haha ill wait for some more replies and see what people say

OK. The other day i wrote about how Pepper hurt herself flying because some idiots clipped her wings. Well, she pulled the feather out.. here are some pics. I was just worried is this normal? And could she get infected, do I need to go to a vet? Thanks I am just worried bc it looks gross; however we put flour on her even tho we didnt see her bleeding. Oh btw Pepper seems to be in a GREAT mood tho! She can flap both her wings now, and open them etc<br><br>Post edited by: Brittany, at: 2009/10/03 04:54

awww. yeah Pepper loves to kiss me, and my boyfriend

she sure does lol so her feather she hurt yesterday that was bleeding... its still there. should i take her to the vet to get it removed? or let her remove it?

yeah it drives me crazy haha every fri , sat, and sun which are days im off.. she bangs her beak on the cage:lol: this morning was just tooo cute tho cuz she kissed my ear & mouth and kept grabbing my finger to wake me up and pet her aww haha

she doesnt sleep with me thru the night. thats dangerous. but on weekends, and days i have off. i let her out at around 8am, and she hangs out til about 10am until i wake up. and sometimes she'll come cuddle on my belly as i lay on my back. cuz i dont move in my sleep i HAVE to let her out in the morning she goes crazy and i cant sleep thru it haha

aww haha i might not take her. she seems fine, i mean shes completely normally shes in a great mood. i woke up this morning to getting kissed on my ear, and my mouth LOL (i let her out every morning) she hangs out in my room while i sleep, or usually sleeps with me

Ummm Pepper is acting normal but her wing seems hurt. She doesnt open it much either and if i try to pet her she freaks out (its a long feather that she hurt) idk im soooo friggin angry that they clipped her wings, bc of this incident should i take her to the vet? she isnt bleeding or anything. but im worried shes hurt.

Yeah its ridiculous! Not going to those people again, for sure. On another note, my sister has been in town with her 1 month old baby for a week, and Pepper has been SO jealous and upset. Yesterday she actually bit the baby she snuck up off my moms shoulder and creeped down to the baby and got her on the finger.

I had tears in my eyes bc she scared me ha im a big worry wart. :[ i cant wait to get off work n see her. I swear shes like my child. Yeah I am SUPER angry they did that. :pinch: Poor Pepper, I cant wait til she can fly again. Thats why I dont clip them, she gets clumsy and shes a bird she wants to friggin fly!

Aww. So today I put Pepper downstairs to hang out with my mom because I had to hurry and get ready for work. She kept wanting to mess with me lol. Anyways, she got upset so a few mins later she tried to fly and apparently hurt her wing. I heard her cry, so I ran downstairs and my mom said her wing was hurting. I went to look at it and on my finger nail was a droplet of blood:( . I called the vet asap and they said put flour on it, and if its not bleeding too much than she'll be okay. So she's been fine so far, i called my mom and Pepper is acting normal. Just as she was this morning. Poor thing!! She scared me. I didnt even WANT her wings clipped, I went in for nail clipping a few weeks back and they clipped her wings too{Emotions-000200BA} It was cute though she really wanted me to stay w/her, she kept grabbing my finger and regurgitating.

yeah we have a very special bond w/ her and she is very trusting. not once has she flown away from us outside. she has no desire to fly away. however, yes I know this is dangerous. but its a personal choice. in the future (by next summer) i'll buy her a harness

we actually bought it from somebody who had it but never used it haha they had a cockatiel... but its obviously way too big for a cockatiel lol we took it home and pressure washed it and stuff.

Yeah it's HUGE but its pretty sweet. We are helping her get more familiar with it but she really likes the top of it. Haha it's taller than me and I am 5foot2 & I cant remb what kinda wood it is

She was initially scared, but now she really likes it!!!:laugh: Yes, I know she isn't on a harness. It's personal choice, in the future I will get her one. FOr now she is very trusting. So let's focus on the perch!! It was only $20. Pretty awesome!

Yeah its really nice to hear that about her. She is such a happy bird, and its great to know she's in excellent health. A funny new thing about Pepper is that she "rawrs" like a lion seriously whenever she's mad now, or myself or boyfriend leave the room hahaha:laugh:

omg your bird is SO cute
