kave70 Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 We've been wanting to add another Fid, but waited until Sam seemed more comfortable around us. He's doing well, making great strides. We brought him with us to our favorite bird store, who happened to have a baby Rose Breasted Cockatoo. Of course I fell in love, because that is one breed I've always loved. My heart wanted it immediately, but we took a few days to consider it and make sure the head matched the heart. This morning I put a deposit down on the little thing. It's 6 weeks old tomorrow, so it'll be a bit before it comes home, but Sam is coming with us again on Saturday to spend time with the little one. I'm quite excited!
katana600 Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Omigoodness what a cute little thing, no wonder you fell in love. It looks like a little punk rocker. I am happy for you to add to your family. Looking forward to seeing this one grow up. How precious.
Kimijean Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Congratulations!! A Rose Breasted is one bird I would get in a heart beat, just LOVE them. Kim

judygram Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Congrats on your new addition, what a cutie pie, I once thought I wanted one of those but my head took over and I didn't get one.
murfchck Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 How absolutely adorable. I second Buzz as a name! Congrats! How is Sam taking it? I bet like a good big brother saying to himself " i can't pick on him, he has enough to deal with, did you see his hair?". Lol
ariisamis Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Congrats on your punk rocker! With a cutie like that I am sure we will get to see many pictures.
TWIX Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 lol what i cute little guy, really looks like a punk rocker... Congrats on your new baby bird.
kave70 Posted April 11, 2012 Author Posted April 11, 2012 I know it's only been a few days since we went to the store, but what a HUGE difference in my relationship with Sam. He sat with me (a rarity till now) the entire time I held the baby and fed it. He was curious, and calm. Since we've come home and I had some lessons in better interaction with Sam, he's been making funny baby noises- the way they were all crying to be fed. I've learned to towel Sam and spend some quiet time every evening, to better our bond and I kissed his beak for the first time. He LOVES my husband, but has always avoided me. I'm loving our changes and look forward to bringing him back to see the baby this weekend.
Greywings Posted April 11, 2012 Posted April 11, 2012 Your new baby is adorable, he wears his crown so well looks like a little Emperor.
