Timbersmom

Wow, sorry to hear that Nancy Hope you have a speedy and complete recovery.

Glad to hear Escher is OK! My situation is the same. I don't think Timber ever fledged. He makes no attempt to fly at all. He can glide to the floor pretty well, but I've never seen him try to take flight. Got my fingers crossed for the future, but we'll see. From everything I've read here Escher will get better with practice!

Done. Something needs to be done about all of the eagles being killed by the "windmill" farms too.

LOL I have three. May be some truth in that!

Very interesting and good job Shelby! Thanks for posting

How cool is that? Every time she raised her foot for "four" she was probably wondering why you were so dull-witted...

I know there are different opinions on this. My experience is like yours. Timber likes to get on top of his cage too, and is higher than I am. He steps up just as readily and doesn't bite more readily when on top of the cage. In fact, when he goes to the top and comes over to where I am on the edge, it is my signal to come get him.

Nice going! Timber still fights going in his, even after all sorts of maneuvers getting him "used" to it. Still, when I need to take him out we manage, and I'm hoping that as time passes he will like it more.

I leave my light on for 10-12 hours a day. To be effective, Timber has to be within about 18 inches of it. He moves around a lot and spends a lot of time "out of range." I figure I have to leave it on a long time for him to get a benefit from it.

Same here as monax. I am Timber's chosen one, but he likes to play and interact with my husband. Just a different type of relationship, but a good one.

Same here! That is what pushed us over the edge, the constant needle shedding. We tried everything also.

Haaaaaaaa!

Beautiful pics! Thanks for sharing

I know how you feel Nancy. My son is a chemistry major. He goes off on these tangents, "mom, did you know that by altering this molecule..." and proceeds to draw little pictures. Oh joy!

Great idea!

Haaaa I also love the toilet bowl brush description! I always disliked artificial trees, but on hubby's insistance finally switched a few years back. Perfect description though! You just never know what they will fear and it always seems to be things you think they would accept. Timber is the same, scared of innocent things and totally calm about things I think will freak him out. Do you think they are playing mind games with us? Sometimes I do....

Hello and welcome Breezy! I also have a TAG. I rehomed him last year and is it about 6 now. Post some pics of your baby when you have a chance. We love pics!

Weird here too. 70's on Tuesday, 21 and 6 inches of snow on the ground already today, headed for a low of 9 tonight...

It may take some time, so don't give up too soon. It sometimes takes Timber weeks, not days, to adjust to a "new" item. Good luck!

Neat pics! Thanks for sharing

I'd try the shots. I had those several years ago, and they did make a big difference!

Happy Hatchday Corky! :)

I was wondering if it was possible that something else in the house too (as Talon said), since you were around another grey and didn't react badly. I have allergies also, though not to greys thank God. As you said, you can develop an allergy to something new at any time. Got my fingers crossed for you!

That's a good looking cage!
