Timbersmom

Petco gives the following: 48" L X 36" W X 76" H Interior Height: 50" Wire Spacing: 1" Black SKU: 1544390 If the full height is 76" and the interior of cage measures 50" high it seems the playtop would be 26" tall? That's the way I interpret it. It looks like there are a few inches at the bottom though, so that would not be entirely accurate depending on whether they were measuring the total height with or without the leg/caster assembly. http://www.petco.com/product/118175/AAndE-Cage-Company-48-X-36-Play-Top-Bird-Cage.aspx

LOL! Same could be said from the female perspective for many of us

I took the arm off the stand and mounted it on the wall where I needed it. I really don't know about the one in the link you posted. When I was researching before I bought mine, there are many contradictory statements and web references about all of the avian lights available. Another thing, the Avian Sun bulb works in a standard socket.

Looks great! I'm making my latest attempt with quinoa and 15-bean mix as the base. I have to keep my fingers crossed though, Timber is picky and it will probably end up on the wall... ;(

Neat videos! What is your baby's name? He is a cutie.

I know how you feel. I look Timber over every day (droppings, manner, eyes, behavior) like he is the crown prince. I'm not sure I was that observant with my kids! In fact, I'm pretty sure I wasn't. On the other hand, since they hide illness we have to be vigilant.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Good one

Hello and welcome to you and Gracie! I'm a relative newbie, but my advice would be to have everything ready, food, toys, etc. I assume you will be bringing her cage with her, which is good if it is in good shape. One familiar thing for her at least. Read up on the threads on grey body language. Give Gracie plenty of time to get used to you and her new environment. Let her set the pace with interaction. Remember that the first few days are known as the "honeymoon" period, so don't be upset if she seems to regress after that. It is normal as she adjusts. I'm so excited for you! Post some pics when you get a chance and keep us posted on your progress

Sounds like you need another cornbread mix to the amount of other stuff you are adding Sterling, or just add plain cornmeal until it is thick enough.

LOL! Wonder how they got him to sit still for that...

Timber is a TAG, and on a good day he tips the scales at 276 grams. I've never tried to measure height. Timber's vet said that he is "small" but appears to be at a healthy weight for him. Oh well! Their size doesn't change the way we feel about them.

Timber loves meatloaf (no he doesn't get much of it). He would think calling me that was high praise indeed!

I need a food processor (the big ones) for some of the stuff I cook. They are a pain to drag out and cleanup. Mine is a Cuisanart that I have had for about 5 years. I used to buy cheap stuff, but as I've gotten older I've realized that it is better to bite the bullet and buy the more expensive kind if you are a heavy user. I have a Kitchenaid mixer for the same reason. That said, I try to group my work with the food processor. I.e. when I know I'm going to use it for cooking I make Timber's stuff at the same time. That way, I only have to clean it up once. It's all a matter of scheduling

Go for it!

Timber's line when the phone rings (sometimes anyway) is "Hello, OK, Bye"

LOL! She just had to follow it with "weirdo." Maybe the others will pick up on the name though.

Very cute! Thanks for sharing. Wonder is Babalu wants to dive in?

Loved it! Loved that album too back in the day if memory serves...

I do. I use my food processor for lots of things though. I like to cook and wouldn't be without it.

Yes, and amen

Nice assortment there Dave.

I'd probably cry too if Timber ever called me anything endearing. All I get is the "Jamie" and it is in the "oh waiter" tone (imperious and demanding). Ah well

They are not always green. Timber's varies with what he is eating.

Thanks for the update! Overall, it sounds positive to me. What a blessing that you can handle Piper. The thought of trying to put anything under Timber's wing gives me chills.

Cool pics! I like the pumpkin beak Unfortunately, Timber is still terrified of the pumpkin.
