    Bald Spot!

    Hello All, I am sure some of you will remember Maximus my new CAG, started a new thread because I noticed a small bald spot right under his lower beak, basically on his neck, you can see in pictures 1 and 2. Any idea why this has happened? or is this normal for a baby CAG? He is about 5-6 months now. Also in the pics below I wanted to show you all his wings and you all can see some loose feathers, dunno if he is molting or picking, but i never see him picking, just scratching his head and neck sometimes. Appreciate the help! Joe
  3. Thanks all But the beak rubbing is kinda like hitting or grinding his beak on cage or pearch or anything hard. Is this normal?
  4. Thanks Judygram, any idea at what age do their eyes start getting lighter? The other thing is lately he has been rubbing his beak a lot on the edges of the cage or the bars of the cage, any idea what that means? Sorry to ask too many questions and I know this thread has become to long, please let me know if I need to start another thread. Really appreciate all the help. Joe
  5. Well today I had a bad experience with Maxi He was fine last night, but this morning, when i wife went up to him to say good morning like usual, he fluffed up and opened his beak wide open to bite her. He would let me pet him and hold him but not my wife, than my son tried to touch him and he actually bit him soo hard that it pierced his finger and drew a lot of blood This is the first time Maxi behaved this way, and its weird cause last night he was fine. Please help! what do I do? I have a son and 2 daughters, son is 6 years old and my daughters are 1 (twins) and barely starting to walk. So i am worried now, what if the twins stick their fingers in his cage.
  6. Thanks Lyric, I am learning from the bests
  7. Thanks guys, the link is very helpfull, so I guess I will remove the toys from his cage and gradually introduce em again. Hope it enjoys them
  8. Thanks Danmcq, Any tips on how to introduce toys to him, and also he is not happy with I mist him every other day with a mixture of water and Aloe vera. I dunno if he will just get used to it, but i am worried that if I keep spaying him, it will take longer for him to settle down and start trusting me 100%.
  9. Hello Everyone, I am still haveing difficulties getting Maxi to step-up When he wants, he will step up without me even saying the word, but once he is outside his cage, i have a tough time getting him to step-up to put him back. Also i have never seen him play with his toys, and seems like he is nervous around em. Dunno if he still needs more time to settle in, but i see a few feathers off his belley and chest area loosly hanging, dunno if he is molting or feather picking. I dont see him picking on his feathers though.
  10. Thanks Caroline, i will ask my vet if he is able to do it and than get it done there. Joe
  11. Cool, Thanks Skuffy! Why are there different ring sizes? The ring doesnt mention the sex, does it? and is it possible to visually tell the sex?
  12. Guys, by looking at the pics, how old do you think he looks, cause the person i got Maxi from, didnt seem like he was sure about his age and also the sex. So I need to get him DNA sexed to make sure. But is it possible to visually sex them? thanks Joe
  13. Alright lets try this. It works, thanks Caroline :cheer:<br><br>Post edited by: snakeye, at: 2008/12/05 09:18
  14. Alright finally got the pics of Maximus and uploaded it on the photo album, please let me know if your able to view it. He is a bit wet in the pics since he just had his shower. btw, i think Maxi is getting the hang of the step ups and he accepted the pellets when i faked eating it myself So it really does work hehe. Thank you all! Joe & Maximus<br><br>Post edited by: snakeye, at: 2008/12/04 20:50
