What is his hatch day? My TAG was hatched June 12. They seem to be about the same age. Harley is beautiful.

Grats on the new baby. My new baby also has quite a few of red feathers on his legs, under his wings, and even a couple on his back. He may lose them when he molts but I kinda hope they stay. :cheer: Can't wait to see pics of your baby.

My CAG used to open his wings and hold them high when I said pretty bird. I taught him this by flapping my arms and holding them in the air. It looked beautiful and he seemed to enjoy showing off.

Oh my goodness, what a sweety! :laugh:

Thank you. He is such a doll. He likes to snuggle close after he eats. He either climbs under the covers or tucks his head under my arm so I will cover his body with my hand. I know he wont stay so cuddly but it would be nice. I'm going to enjoy these days as much as I can.

Lets take a peek under there.

The baby likes to sleep under the covers. Soooo cute!

Try again for pic.

Our new TAG arrived yesterday. He/She is doing wonderful. I have been thinking of calling him Frankie since that can be a girl or boy name. My son really likes the name Slate. Needless to say the baby doesn't have a name yet. I will try and attach a pic

The cage was large for a conure, but I do plan on getting a new one. The breeder suggested using a transition cage in the beginning. Thanks for the advice. I am gonna toss the toys. The cage has soaked in bleach twice and I scrubbed the heck out of it. I may do it again for good measure.

I had a baby CAG about 18 years ago. I was still quite young and moving around alot so he was adopted into a good stable home. Now that I am old and settled I decided it was time to fulfill my AG dream. We had a Conure last year that died suddenly. I left another post about that. Yes all of my dogs are inside. I am a dog trainer. My german shep is trained in search and rescue. I have alot of experience with clicker training dogs and I can't wait to try it with our new baby! Don't worry lots of pictures will be coming your way when the new one arrives.

About a year ago we adopted a Conure. We had her for about 6 weeks and she died. She didnt appear to be sick. We woke up one morning and she was on the bottom of the cage. Now I am bringing home an 8 week old TAG on Fri. I have cleaned the cage we had for the Conure well with bleach, but I am worried about the wooden perches and old toys since I dont know what the other bird might have had. Can old wooden toys and perches be safely disinfected?

Just thought I would say hello. I live in Pennsylvania with 4 dogs, 4 finches, and Fri I will have an 8 week old TAG!!! I am so excited. I have enjoyed reading the posts on this forum and look forward to being a part of your community.
