  1. I sure feel for you on the health insurance thing! I have good, affordable care through my employer now, but back in the day, I bought major medical policies with very large deductibles to get by on insurance. That isn't an option under the new program. My dad and mom farmed, and didn't have medical insurance until they qualified for medicare. My brother is a farmer also, and he and his wife have never had medical insurance. I have to say that I really dislike government taking away our choices. Nough said about that though.
  2. Interestingly, Timber's contact call isn't exactly that tune, but some of the tones are spot on!
  3. Timber won't touch a pecan either. He loves walnuts, pinenuts and almonds.
  4. If Timber every "wiggles his tongue" I haven't noticed it.
  5. Well if Timber doesn't get mad at me, he certainly does a great imitation of anger!
  6. Haaaaa love those German fairy tales...
  7. Only thing I can think of is to try another browser. It is working for me on Chrome and Firefox.
  8. Very cool video! Django is really vocalizing a lot. Enjoyed it, thanks for posting!
  9. Glad to hear the good report! They do get jealous of their chosen one at times.
  10. hmmm... just edited the above and bolded what is bold. Is that what you meant Dave? Might be a browser thing?
  11. LOL to the hemlock and "nastier chunky smoothies!" It was great that you found Phenix's Achilles heel. Timber is very picky though he was not wild caught. He will also except peanut butter well so I use it in my bag of tricks as well. Seems I spend a lot more time trying to get healthy stuff past his beak than I did my kids' mouths, who were also picky.
  12. Yes, truth there thanks! I'm pretty good about washing my hands between anything I do and Timber, but that is an excellent reminder
  13. Inara has made so much progress! Thanks for the update, I enjoyed reading it.
  14. Good to hear from you and Loki and thanks for the pics! Timber also loves peas and gets them almost daily.
  15. Glad you were there! Thanks for posting this reminder that we have to always be vigilant.
  16. Timber has had squash in his chop as well. How much he eat (or if he ate it) is hard to tell of course. I did try baking a butternut squash for him one time and he wanted none of that. He is a very picky eater though.
  17. I've tried big, small, skewered, in food bowl, baked, etc. etc. I just can't interest him! It surprises me a bit, since one of the things he will always eat is cooked sweet potato, which is about the same color. I'll keep trying, but don't have much hope!
  18. Great news about the weight gain! How many nutriberries they eat depends totally on the bird and what else they are eating. Timber is a nutriberry bird. He has refused every pellet I have tried. He eats about 10 nutriberries a day, along with everything else he eats.
  19. I resisted temptation and threw it away. Timber doesn't like to chew hard things like wood but loves cardboard, plastic straws and the like. I've actually quit giving him plastic straws after a few things I read. Ah well! He won't miss what he hasn't had.
