Makena Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 I am sooooo excited to have found this board! We just brought home our CAG chick (Makena) last week. He will be 3 months old on Tuesday and we couldn't be more in love with him!! My fiance has raised parrots his whole life but this is my first time with one, and his first time with a Grey (he always had macaws). We live on the island of Maui but we found Makena from a breeder on Oahu. We are still hand feeding him, but supplementing his formula with fruits and dry food to try and wean him off. His favorite fruit so far is papaya which is good as there are plenty of them around here! It is amazing to watch him learn how to do new things, you can see the excitement in his eyes. The day we got him he couldn't even perch and now he is climbing all over the place, sitting on our shoulders and trying to fly. He is also a little chatter. He loves to sit on his perch and ramble on, although he isn't making out any words yet! He loves to cuddle and likes to climb up my chest and sit under my chin and fall asleep. He already thinks he owns the place and loves to run all around and check things out (under plenty of supervision of course)! We love our little guy so much and are very much looking forward to growing old with him I am very happy to have found this site as I am sure I am going to have many questions as time goes on! Mahalo to everyone who contributes to this board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
