Judaygram, aw, thank you so much When we first met him, he was so small... I still can't believe how much he has grown myself...{Emotions-00020070} The owner told us back when he thought he was a boy because the size of his head. back then, I thought he just looked 'normal' hope his growth spurts slows down a bit.. Ann Marie

casper & luvparrots..aw, thank you! I think I am going to have to buy a macaw's cage...lol!!! At times I feel there is no need for a dna boy..boy..boy lol Tyco's mom..speaking of a macaw's cage...wow!! That does sound huge! what size is it?? To fit 8 perches no less??? lol! your a riot! Alex is in a tempoary cage I have his cage on back order. It's a new style and color and they are totally out of stock. I was so mad! I ordered it when we first put a deposit on him, and it's still not in..so I have to buy a cage for him to be able to come home. I will use it as a sleeping cage if I find a place to fit it... if not, I have no clue what I will do with it..it really was a waste of money to have to buy two cages. I called today and she told me it shouldn't be too much longer... this is it and thought this was big http://www.kingscages.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=137 Raposa yes, I was taken by surprise for sure. I should have known better to talk to him about it..but stupid me!! We are all so happy he is finally home and love him very much! Ann Marie

Natasha You are their guardian angel, you earned your wings for sure! You’re a good “egg” , you really opened your heart to them. good things will come back to you! karma to you! Ann Marie

Joolesgreyuk..aw, thank you, how sweet! He is big, isn't he?? lol! His flight feathers are clipped underneath. You can only see it when you pull his wing out. The only good thing is they will grow back thanks so much again! Ann Marie

lovethatgrey..thanks..I am glad it is normal and not just him his food and water bowls are at the bottom with his lower perch. I bought additional crocks for him..have not filled the SS ones yet, too high right now. Thanks!!! cflanny..thank you once again!!

Thanks Dan, you are always so sweet!

That is too funny..I am laughing because when we were visiting Alex in the store and holding him, people actually came up to us and asked if he was a pigeon..I must of looked at them stunned ..lol! The macaw got me..lol!!!!! Ann Marie

Thank You Caitlin!! your birds are beautiful also! I love when they are babies and their eyes are dark Ecko's cage is great! Love the swing you made.. you are talented..I saw your things on the home made toys page.. they are fantastic!!! I bought a lot of things for him, but only put in a few for now until he learns how to get around with out falling. I have to leave him alone so he will learn and stop running to rescue him each time , kills me because I am so worrid he will get really hurt. I guess we have all been through this I have the perch that came with the cage all the way at the bottom and toys . The natural tree perch is half way up. I have a sand perch also, but I am not putting it in yet. Thanks for showing me Ecko's cage, you did a great job..lucky guy Natasha, aw, thank you too!! Your birds are just beautiful also.. I love the key foot toys, are they baby keys?? I need to get Alex some, they seem to really like them. You can go crazy buying them things Ann Marie

thanks again!! He is a sweet baby! here are a few more pictures of him isn't he big?? I want to have him dna'd, but by the looks of him, I really think he's a male..unless a very large female..lol he is doing well. The only thing is he climbs up, does not know how to get down. We have to re-do the cage some how. I want to get the branch perch that goes from side to side..not easy to find unless I get one bigger and cut it down some how?? I need cage decorating ideas.. so if any of you have pictures of your cages, I would love to see them! Thanks! Ann Marie

Caitlin..thank you!! Everyone here experienced bringing the baby home. We are all very happy, he really is a sweet little guy! cflanny..Thank you too! How old is ZZero? (adorable name) Alex is 12 weeks. I do have a higher perch, he gets up, but seems he does not know how to get down..?? I guess it will all happen soon when he is ready..can't wait because I am always checking on him making sure he is ok Ann Marie

aw how sad is that Pat! I am happy she is no longer clipped and her balance is good. Maybe one day, she will fly?? Hope so! Alex is so clumsy , I get so worried! The first day he climbed to the top of the cage and didn’t know what to do, so he let go and came straight down, I almost had a heart attack. Thank goodness he was alright! his balance is ok, not perfect. I am not sure if it’s because he is still so young, or his wings being clipped..?? I have his perch at the bottom of the cage for now...I do not know how long I should keep it there?? Maybe move it up a little each week?? I guess in baby steps. Do you know about the age where they get the climbing and perching down pat? Thanks! Ann Marie

oh what little stinkers is right! lol

aw! How cute!!! She looks like she is having a ball! Great pictures Pat! Ann MArie

can't wait to see your new toys! What kind did you order? I need to get foot toys too..I never heard of Nalani Toys, I am going to take a peek! let us know how Tobie likes them! Ann Marie

Congrats !! It must be so nice to know for sure We 'think' our new baby is a male.. he is a big baby..I would like to have a dna done as well..which method did you use? nail, feather? Enjoy your baby boy!!! Ann Marie
