Thank you abieisert. I’m not real good when it comes to actually taking pictures but I do have some of at least some of my animals. Would it be OK to place them here since this is an intro thread? Kim

I feel the need to say that I'm disappointed. I joined 2 AG forums and started an introduction thread in/at each at about the same time. And even though this forum is the more active of the two, no one has bothered to welcome me. Based on this it seems the other forum is much friendlier. I do hope I'm wrong though. Kim

This is a great thread, thank you. I'll be bringing home a baby CAG in a few months and need all the help I can get to make sure this baby grows up well adjusted and happy. Kim

I’ve joined the forum because I’ll be getting a baby CAG in the near future. S/he is an egg right now. I’ve never had an AG but have bird experience. I had a Goffins Cockatoo before and boarded an Umbrella Cockatoo for a few months. My 16 yr old son and I are owned by a dog, 2 cats, 2 bunnies, and a few birds.: Male canary Dusky Pionus ~ female “rescue” Myer’s Parrot ~ female “rescue” Rosey Bourkes ~ female(?) I hand fed European Yellow Parrotlet ~ female about 2 ½ mo old Baby creamino IRN ~ female just weaned by me And I just started breeding Lineolated Parakeets on a very small scale. In fact it’s because of the linnies that I’m getting a CAG. I ended up with more linnies than I wanted (in order to help out a breeder I know) and a breeder is willing to trade a baby CAG for 6 linnies. This came about because she had a pare of p’lets for sale and I was thinking I wanted a breeding pair. We were going to trade a pair of linnies for the p’lets but I decided I don’t want to breed them. She has 4 baby CAG’s right now but has offered me a baby form the next clutch and we agreed that 6 linnies (1 bonded not proven pair, 1 male, and 3 females) would be close to an even trade. Before this I never even considered owning a CAG mainly because you always hear about all the problems that seem to be common with AG’s. So I joined in order to get all the help I can with raising this baby correctly. Kim
