Can you pass it your bird???

Thanks, got to poke around all over to get info.

The bird shop is still feeding her. Although she is starting to eat veggies and pellets too. They use a syringe into the crop to feed the babies if they want it. I too love all the red. I pray it stays.

I just found out tonight that my instinct was right and Neytiri is in fact a GIRL!!!!!! Woot! I'm soooo happy!

Those pics are 9 weeks. (found out it is a SHE)

Please don't forget humid. In pa and nj is was super hot and humid. Like breathing through a straw.

I love it too. And all the red that is up the back and under the wings.

This first pic of Neytiri is a headstand. Now my penguin impersonation.

Finally got the pics loaded. This is what it is so far. I really hope Neytiri keeps the red. I'm digging it. The store owners said they've never seen one with so much red. Sassy

I don't have any advise for you as I'm still waiting for my baby to come home. I do hope yours is feeling better soon. Sassy

Wow. That red factor grey is beautiful!

Thanks Dave... I really hope that the baby keeps some of the red... I really like it. Apparently my little baby loves eating everything... the shop owner says I should name him (not really sure sex yet) Mikey as he likes everything... LOL Sassy

Good morning.... My 9 week old baby had veggies for the first time this week... gobbled them up... even munched on some pellets.... Typically how long after they start having solid foods does it take to be fully weaned?? Also... I'm noticing a lot of red all over my baby... red tint to wing feathers... very red feathers down the back, on the belly and the legs... Is this normal and should I expect them to molt out? (I hope some stay though... it looks really cool) thanks Sassy

While I'm on a business trip the shop owner is sending me updates. Yeah!!! Yesterday I got a pic.... Apparently Neytiri had her first veggies. She will be 9 weeks tomorrow. I can't wait to see her when I get back.

The little babies were removed from that area. Neytiri is doing better and will be fine in a couple days. I have to go on a business trip next week. Hope she doesn't get into more trouble.

Oh my gosh. That is awesome. They are both beautiful. I love how the BG was lifter their wing and feet.

Got to visit Neytiri tonight. Heard lots of new little baby sounds. It was amazing. Yesterday though she had to go to the vet... Apparently she needs to learn not to eat the bedding material in the playpen. The little wood chips are in her crop. The vet said to provide a special diet and a special enzyme to help digest the wood. She's already getting better. She also fell asleep with her head tucked back and tail wiggling. It was just the cutest thing I ever saw. Sassy

I am loving every bit of it. Today they were in the playpen area (open space to stretch out and move around). I also had Neytiri playing with a little ball with a bell. I will have to check the videos to see how they came out then I will post those.

Here are pics of Neytiri from my visits this week. Enjoy!

Yup. And I'm loving it!

There was only two babies. I don't think they are from the same clutch as they appear to be about 1.5 weeks different development wise. They are so cute and can't wait to get back to see my baby.

The reason I choose this one is that she was always calmer when I held her. She would cry once then just settle in looking up at me occasionally. She frequently would fall asleep. The other one always cries and was generally unsettled when I held her. They made the choice for me. As for food everywhere. Who knows. Lol

One of the babies is always crying and very restless when I am holding him. The other was always calm and would go right to sleep. I think they made the decision for me.

Well I made my choice as to which one was going to join my family. I'm going to refer to her as a she for now till we know for sure. Her name will be Neytiri (from avatar).... Now the long wait till I can bring her home.

Yeah they are. Pretty much fit in one hand. I have to work today but I'm hoping to pop over for a quick visit again otherwise I wont get to see them again till tues night at the earliest.
