as1720 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Well i Live in Tacoma, WA. I am a stay at home mom, we currently have two dogs and American Bulldog and a Papillon, a cat, 2 pet rats and 4 pet snakes. We are adding a baby Timneh to the bunch! Its a boy his name is Tango and he will be here in the begining or middle september he is being rasied by Beakers Parrot Place! I had a Congo growing up and as much as i loved him he wasnt vary nice so we decided to go with a Timneh and plan on adding a male sloman island eclectus in a couple months. We go and see him once a week and i will be going to see him today So i will bring back some more pictures when i get back! These are pictures Beakers took.

judygram Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Hello As1720 and welcome to our family, its so nice that you could join us and we look forward to hearing more about you and Tango. So you are no stranger to greys having had one as a child but whether you go with a Cag or Tag they each have their own personality and individual traits but as you are more mature and knowledgeable now you will know how to handle them. You have a wide range of pets, an interesting mix with rats and snakes along with a cat and dogs but to each their own, I am more of a cat person myself having had at least one cat for most of my life, my interest in birds coming later in life. I also have a sun conure along with my 3 year old Cag. You will find lots of useful information in our many threads so do read thru them and don't hesitate to ask questions you may have and we will help you in any way we can. Thanks so much for sharing a couple of pictures of Tango with us as we usually have to ask for them and I look forward to seeing some more after your visit today.

Luvparrots Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Great pictures of Tango!!!! Just a word of caution on the beak to lips kisses, if Tango should get spooked her beak could cause a nasty scar. So be very cautious. Congratulations on your sweet baby and welcome to the grey family! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
