Loki'sMinion Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Figured I would start a thread here for updating you guys on my Lil Loki. First of all I will start out by letting you all know that my baby is continuing to gain weight and was 247 grams this morning at 45 days old (6 weeks 3 days). Second, Loki's appetite has picked up a bit and we now get between 22cc's and 27cc's fed at each meal. Third, I have Loki's DNA results already.... Only mailed them in on Friday. Loki is FEMALE! Was hoping for a male but I love my lil baby all the same I promised some pictures of Loki's lil red tail buds, so here they are.... (If any of these end up posting sideways, I apologize in advance. They show correctly on photobucket but when I preview them here, 2 are sideways) Finally, I figured I would show you guys why I call Loki my messy lil devil....... NEVER have I had a bird this messy while eating. Loki is unreal! I have to bath her after every meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki'sMinion Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Loki is being a brat! She is chowing on pellets and such and refusing her formula. She takes the first 12cc's or so and then clamps her beak shut. She is wayyyy too young for this. I am keeping an eye on her weight to make sure she doesn't lose any. Besides that, she has become VERY vocal, is perching and is playing a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayd Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 You know the rules, be patient and calm, lol What do you think the total daily intake is? [all foods], does Loki like millet? A TAG grows much quicker than a CAG! A TAG leaves his parents at around 6mos, talks pretty good at the same age, is and self sufficient at this time [most]. A CAG doesn't reach this level untill after a year old! Jayd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 It's good to hear Loki is enjoying the bountiful foods being offered. More photos please!

danmcq Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Awww, I can cannot believe how much Loki has grown in a week! It just amazes me, no matter how often I see weekly photos or visit other friends with chicks. Thanks for posting these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki'sMinion Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 She was 247 grams at 45 days and is 268 as of this morning at 53 days It's been a weird 6 days with Loki...... Her weight has been up and down. She will gain a few and then lose a few grams. Today she is 273 grams, she was 277 at one point this week. We have A LOT of wing flapping going on and she LOVES her birdy mash. Doesn't seem to want her lunch feeding and is clamping her beak shut more often than not. I noticed this morning that she has some pink feathers on her right leg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malikah Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Kito did that to me too. She'll be flying anytime now! Got any new pictures or videos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki'sMinion Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 I swear, Loki has been one busy lil birdie all day long today. She is either eating or playing. She has taken a few short naps here and there but every time I look at her she is eating and playing it seems lol. With how much she has eaten today (Pellets and mash), she had better have a weight gain in the morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki'sMinion Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 This is where she naps..... She LOVES that stuffed bull. Shame I will have to do away with it as soon as she manages to put a hole in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayd Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Almost flight time, a TAG is far more clumsy about flying then a 'Tiel, a lot more mass.lol I'd rather have 6 'Tiels flying at once than 1 TAG or CAG!!!! Beautiful color Loki is... Jayd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki'sMinion Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 After 4 days of refusing her lunch meal I have decided to go ahead and cut it out. Some may think it is a bit early, but she is chowing on her mash, pellets and millet. I will of course be keeping an eye on her weight since I weigh her every morning anyway. She seems to be advancing a little faster than I thought she would be but I have to keep in mind that she is a TAG and not a CAG. The wing flapping continues and she almost raised up off the table last night when I was attempting to feed her at bedtime I don't think she is going to be a large TAG by any stretch of the imagination... Probably somewhere around the 300 gram range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 She is the one who knows whether she wants it or not and if she doesn't want it then its time to drop it but do keep watch on her weight, I bet she flies very soon and then the real fun begins.

Luvparrots Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 My Ana Grey is a TAG and weighs only 293 grams. Such a little lady, who eats like a pig!!!!!! She will be 2 next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
