  1. Great video Hannah, you did it :woohoo: Ecko is soo big and what a great flyer he is!
  2. Awwwww Jasper is so precious! Thanks for sharing, I never see pics of your babies Awwww look at Ana grey! that is so cute Janet! She must of been soo tired!
  3. WOW! 18 years old and they still manage to destroy things? I had a 16 year old cat and she could hardly move, she lost her site and then she was deaf and she was so pitiful we had to put her to sleep. She was my first cat and I was devastated I bet they are your babies and you still love them even if they destroy your house lol.
  4. Sharla on another forum posted a thread like this and I thought it was a GREYT idea. I LOVE pictures of sleeping parrots. I looked for a topic like this on this forum but couldn't find anything like it so I was wondering if you guys would like to share your favorite sleeping parrot pics. I will start. Ecko @ 8 weeks. Ecko @ 10 weeks. Ecko @ 16 weeks. Sorry I am really bored at work. If this has been posted before then I apologize :blush:
  5. My mom chose to get our cats declawed when she took them to get spayed and neutered. They are inside cats and they would always ruin her furniture so she wanted it done. Actually Misty isn't declawed because she is my baby and lives with me but Mia is because she use to live there. Our outside cats aren't declawed but they are definitely fixed!
  6. I prefer the local pet shops too. There is a really nice couple that owns a pet shop in my area and I have always gone to them for my cats and my bird. I find those corporate stores to be a little more expensive.
  7. I am careful but I do trust them. They are declawed anyways.
  8. The setting on my camera has a "dual image stablizer" button and that is what I use. I don't know if yours has it too. But yea the video will work if you upload it on photobucket and post a link on here. Can't wait to see it. Thats great that he took a shower! Have you gotten aloe vera juice to spray on him after? It shows a big difference in the feathers, Eckos feathers are so shiny from it. I shower him every other day.
  9. No problem I also love to hear your updates! Yes he is DNA sexed a male. You should get your baby sexed. Just go to avianbiotech.com and order a kit and its only $25. You have to pluck the chest feathers yourself :pinch: or you can have someone else do it if its too tramatizing for you. haha I had my mom do it because I didn't wana hurt my baby but he didn't even notice lol.
  10. AWWW Congrats on his first word and good landings! Your baby is growing up so fast. Wheres the pics?? lol you know I always ask for pics.:whistle:
  11. For those of you who have cats and greys living in the same house I was wondering, do your cats get along with your greys as good as mine do?? My two cats get along with Ecko so good, its scary! Mia could are less about Ecko, he flies and lands on her all the time, chases her, bites her tail and ears and she doesn't even flinch. I feel like he tries to provoke her to do something, he wants a reaction from her but she doesn't give it to him, haha its funny! Misty on the other is terrified of Ecko, especially when he flies over her. She runs away scared. But when Ecko has a toy Misty always wants to play with him. And they actually play with each other. Ecko was dragging the string of beads and Misty was swatting at the beads. Its very cute to watch. Also the other day Ecko stole my pen that has a lazer at the end and Misty goes crazy when she sees that lazer. He was biting on the button to shine it and she was chasing it. Is this normal?? Do your cats get along with your grey?? Could you trust your cat with your grey? Maybe I got lucky...
  12. Oh don't worry Helen, Cookie won't hate you. I had to do this for Ecko for 10 days too and he doesn't hate me at all, he loooves me! Do it quick and easy, hide the syringe from him when your about to give it to him, sneak it up behind him and open his beak and squirt it into his mouth. Just make sure he doesn't see it and he won't run. It may not be easy at first but he should get use to it, its only for a couple days too. Good luck
  13. Oh no Dan!! I am sooo sorry to hear this! Poor little Jake is probably so scared! Aww that is so sad! I really hope you find Jake. I bet you and your wife are missing him so much. I just couldn't imagine. My thoughts are with you.
  14. {Feel-good-0002006E} Hahaha omg that is sooo funny!! Koko is such a devil :evil:
  15. Thats ok Helen, not to worry. This is common in baby greys because they don't have a strong immune system. As long as you give Cookie the medicine he needs, he will be fine. When I first got Ecko he also had a crop infection but after giving him the meds for 10 days it was all gone and he is healthy as can be. Good luck and make sure to give him the meds and do a follow up at the vet.
  16. Oh no Janet I am so sorry to hear this! I hope Lily is going to be ok.. {Feel-bad-00020072}
  17. Ohhhh luckyy you!! Its ok thats why you are a cat lover, you had to have this kitten! I am so jealous, I want a kitten so bad but I know I can't. I am such a cat lover too What a big boss Talon is! I bet the kitten was hissing and all puffy haha. P.S. Can we please see pictures?! :whistle:<br><br>Post edited by: caitb2007, at: 2009/05/27 02:38
  18. AWWW how cute!! Nothing can distract your daughter from guitar hero huh? lol I love that game, it is sooo addicting lol. Looks like you are having so much fun! I love hearing updates on the twins!
  19. Thank you I love showing pictures of my baby.
  20. :laugh: Haha Chimay is so funny! Maybe he thought if he took a bath by himself he would get an extra pine nut lol. Ecko still hasn't taken a bath on his own yet but I am hoping one day he will. He doesn't mind his showers but he also doesn't enjoy it lol.
  21. WOW! More words from Ana Grey? Congrats, I guess she decided to open up. How cool!!
  22. Here's some updated pictures of Mango. Shes so silly! Mango has a new play gym. We found a nice big basket and added some toys and she loves it.
  23. Great picture of Sully, I notice some feathers coming in! My fingers crossed for you Janet that he doesn't pluck them! You are such a good mama.
  24. Good luck at the vet tomorrow Helen. Please let us know what the vet says and ask them a lot of questions.<br><br>Post edited by: caitb2007, at: 2009/05/26 17:19
  25. Ohh Murphy is so precious Tiffany! That is sooo scary that he almost flew away from you! I bet you almost had a heart attack, I sure would! The other day I had Ecko outside in his harness and he got scared of a noise and flew away, thank god I have the harness on because he couldn't fly far and landed safely. You should definitely start harness training him so he gets use to it. I bet he had fun going outside with you. That is so cool you are home schooled and get to stay home with him all day. I hate leaving Ecko to go to work but thankfully he is out all day with my boyfriend, I just always miss him lol. :lol:
