Hey guys, When I got home today I found 3 red drops on the cage's newspaper covered floor. I am quite certain that they are blood drops, however Mikko seems to be healthy and well. He recently plucked his feathers and now new ones are growing, and I sometimes see him messing around with them so I guess he might have broken a blood feather. I will keep an eye on him and hopefully the cause won't be something serious. And by the way I'm certain it's not from the droppings, all droppings look normal and the three drops are not located anywhere near them. Any ideas on what's going on? Regards Joe & Mikko

She looks so cute! I love young greys

Does the movie Rio count? It really is a great movie and for me it in a way deals with the issue of clipping a parrot and taking away it's ability to fly. It also explores the bond that a person develops with their parrots I think you would really enjoy it even though it's animated.

wonderful vid, thx for sharing

Talon, glad you're having fun, think you can help me with some of the subjects I have to study?

Judy, you just identified 14/22 not a bad score (says the person who could only name 7 lol)

PS: You never answered the first question: How many parrots can you name?

Tell you what, if by this time tomorrow I finish all of the philosophy chapters you'll pack the boxes AND wash your car hahahaha Ok I gtg, talk to you tmrw

LOL that's too hard how about I just finish this chapter (it's already 8PM here and I still have to go workout) Deal? PS: It's a big chapter and ironically it's about math Leave it to philosophy to make math boring and incomprehensible

Nooooo don't be so cruel! LOL I still have 3 philosophy chapters that I'm trying to get out of studying, not to mention civics, history and geography. Damn it! Why did I do all of the fun subjects (physics, math, chemistry) at once

Collect them all! Out of the 22 parrots in this picture how many species and sub-species can you name? I'll start: 8/22 CAG Macaw : Scarlet & Hyacinth Cockatoo : Red crested and Palm Indian ringneck Sun concure Finche

hahaha he sure is having fun economical parrot lol

That is AMAZING ! Happy for the both of you

Take it slow, every baby step you see is actually a giant leap for your parrot. I used the techniques shown on the BirdTricks DVD and I have to say, they work great However, I've never actually managed to get Mikko to come out of his cage....yet...but that step will have to wait for now due to some setbacks. Keep up your good work and stay patient, even though parrots usually bond with their owners and have a great amount of affection to give they are limited by their instinctive fearful nature. So don't take it personally.... it's not you, it's simply evolution Regards Joe & Mikko

LOL, I was really surprised, these birds sure do love to bathe, unlike my CAG; he won't even tolerate misting (but it is a must)
