Ozzysmom

That is cool. He does a few noises. He loves to laser us, he makes a sound that sounds like a laser its funny will have to get it on video. He growls like a dog and makes little barking noises.

How exciting!

Ozzy is 10 if he never talks I dont care I love him so much. What are the chances of him learning to talk after being semi unsocialized for years?

I found all my babies on Craigslist but this ad just makes me angry. The birds were there first and so the cat should go lol Here the cage is worth more than the bird to these people. Wat are they thinking a Cocatoo is not something you just give to someone who buys a cage they need so much care.

Wow she is pretty! Comes with a cage too not sure of the adoption fee but thought I would share with you guys Adoptable Cockatoo: SAMIRA: Petfinder

Oh that is great! Maybe he was trying to log into this site for some late night chat.

Oh I am sure people call me the crazy bird lady because everything revolves around the birds, and their schedule. They are like my children.

Boy do I love this boy. He is the definition of determination. He never gives up he tries and tries until he gets it right! Humans sure could learn a two or thing from this awesome bird. Well Ozzy is showing us who he is. He was all over the house the other day walking around chasing kids, getting pets and climbing on cages. He then wanted to go back in and he was climbing up the cage to get to the top he had trouble getting from ground to his cage. Then it occurred to me so I did this for him.

So not real original but thought I would share it. Its just the Lefeber's Nutri bar things and you heat it in the microwave for 15 seconds or so and stuff it into a rigatoni noodle. Mai Tai loved it. I also make them with the giant shells.

Well the kids wanted Parrots but I feel that kids do not have any business having such high demanding birds so I agreed that if they earn the money for feed, toys and health insurance they can have cockatiels. So they are all getting one bird they are expected to handle them daily, feed them and do all the care themselves. I stay home so they get attention during the day too. So we have 2 more cockatiels coming. I am hoping for another grey and/or Amazon in the future. Ozzy is a gem his leg was broken when he was a baby and he had surgery. When I got him he was being housed in a building in the backyard in a small cage and being housed with 100 chinchillas. It was dark and not much human interaction. He is coming out of his shell and really flourishing. He bites but after spending an hour with him on me the other day he is not trying to hurt me he is trying to play so now just to teach him limits on the strength of his bites we will be good. He is so cute. I like to stay busy most people think that my day is crazy and I do way to much for the birds, but we have a routine and they know what to expect. Funny story my roommate wanted to give them their bed time treats so I said ok. Mai Tai was ready for his treat so he was squawking at her to hurry she said ok Ill get your treat. She went to the birds treat container and got the treats. She gave one to Ozzy and then went to give Mai Tai his and he bit her. I suppose he was mad because he is usually first.

Hello I am new here and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Samantha and I have a full house. I have 5 Children and 4 birds with 2 more on the way. Mai Tai- He is our 8 year old Sun Conure. Came to us free because the family did not have time for him. Ozzy- Our African grey, this poor guy was given to us too he has deformed feet so I need to move him from in his cage to the top then back in at night other than that he gets around his cage well. He is doing better than when we got him he didn’t really stand upright a lot but now he has great motion in his feet and doing wonderfully. Madonna and Oreo are our 12 week old Cockatiels and they are just a joy to have.
