Timbersmom

What great pics (as always) and what a beautiful baby! Welcome Kilaya.

That's great news!

Looking good Inara!

So sorry for your loss!

I am so sorry for your loss!

LOL Loved the video! Timber does 4 very different meows. They aren't all from my cats either. I assume he picked them up in his previous homes.

I leave the TV on for Timber, usually on TVLand. He doesn't seem to care what channel, but seems to like having it on.

Happy belated hatchday Inara!

You must be so excited! I don't know anything about newly weaned babies, but I do know my 7 year old TAG still loves to be fed something warm off a spoon, like your cockatoo. My initial reaction is that if they enjoy it what can it hurt as long as your baby is eating a variety of things during the day? Maybe someone with baby experience will have a different view though.

That is such a sweet pick! You can tell when a bird knows they are loved.

I don't have any baby experience but someone will be along to answer your questions! I'm just commenting to bump your post up.

Will JW not come out of the cage at some point if you leave the door open? That is what I had to do when I rehomed my TAG. He was not about to step up, so I just left the door open and he eventually came out. Do you have another entrance/exit so that you could keep that door near their cage locked? Several forum members use their garage door only (for example) so the birds don't have a direct flight path out. I don't know how your house is set up so don't know if that is feasible. As to how you get a flighted bird down (or out) I've seen others say to turn the lights off and darken the room as a last resort. They will retreat to the cage. Someone with experience correct me if I'm wrong on this. Timber could fly but won't so I don't have experience with it.

So sorry to hear about Scarlett

I'd love to know why they respond to colors like they do. Timber does not like orange toys. He dislikes them in the "if I touch that toy I will die" type of dislike. On the other hand, he will always eat warm sweet potato (orange) off a spoon. I have to think some instinct from the wild is involved?

I hope you don't have to keep her caged for your daughter's visit! They always seem to do the unexpected.

Hello and welcome to you and Annie. She is a beautiful baby!

They both look so sweet and trusting! Love the name Piper by the way.

I love seeing those shots of them in flight! Thanks for sharing

They are both beautiful! Not letting hubby see these...

He looks like a happy bird! Enjoyed the video.

Timber's first NEW word (I rehomed him) was "artichoke." He says it clearly and with relish

Don't need one. Timber does all the scheduling. I am simply here to serve Seriously, I don't know of one!

Wow look at how he's grown!
