Hello fellow Clevelander! What a great intro. It wasnt so long. I actually just adopted a 5 month old grey. DNA sexed female. She is beautiful! We named her Roxie so glad you are a part of this awesome forum. Everyone here is very knowledgeable you can never ask to many questions. Hope to talk to you soon Jason

awe what a cutie pie!

Good morning Sophie, So glad to have a new member here everyone here has excellent advice to give. I have a 5 month old rehome i have had her about 3 weeks now. It took her some time to settle in but she is adjusting fine. She too was on a bad diet she is slowly accpting all kinds of veggies and a few fruits. What is the name of your fid? If you have time we would love to see some pictures of your new family member. Hope to talk to you soon and Welcome!

Surprisingly I didnt say any bad words. I just said ouch Maybe we can find a deal on some no rust shower armor lol

Yes I put her in the shower but I just let her perch on my fingers and hold her under the water. I dont take a shower with her it hurt to be bit on my eye imagine how it would feel other places lol

Thankyou I am happy

lol that is funny Nancy!

awe I just want to kiss her. Look at those big feet beautiful pics

I love the first picture she looks like she is thinking about getting into some trouble lol. Thanks for sharing them

awe she is so sweet! Thanks for sharing

what great pictures Slater looks like he is having alot of fun!

You are right Nancy. But it stinks because no one in this house takes care of her at all. I do everything. All dusty does it talk to her and hold her and play with her. I feed her give her water shower talk to her sing to her clean her cage make her toys I am the one who bought her and everything she needs it is just hard to deal with. At the same time after talking with u and others it will take time and I just have to wait and try everything you all tell me and hope it works. Thanks for everything!

Here's a new picture of my baby

Thankyou everyone I have given Roxie some space she is eating like no tomorrow omg! What a little piggy! The only fruit I found that she likes are banana chips and apples. Things are cool now she was trying to take a shower in her water bowl so I gave her a nice warm shower which she enjoyed. She stepped up nicely for me and let me scratch her head every time I asked her if she wanted a scratch. Now its after her bedtime and she doesnt want to go to sleep. This is new she never yells when I put her to bed. Maybe that power nap is to blame lol Thanks again

Thanks I will Lesson well learned

I never wanted her to be a shoulder bird until she earned the priviledge but the previous owner taught her that we are working with her to change that. I have been thinking about what you all have said and I agree she was probably scared. Tomorrow is a new day! thanks so much for the advice

:confused:About an hour ago she flew and landed on the floor on her feet the dog was near so i allowed her to ome to me by offering my finger she stepped up i said its ok and she walked up to my shoulder. she pecked right under my eye and when I tried to put my finger for her to step so Ic ould put her on her stand she bite me so hard she drew blood. I didnt force her she came to me she crawled up to my shoulder. I didnt want the dog to scare her. I was protecting her.:(

awe I love all the stories and pictures and videos You made me smile showing off your little Marco.
