Hi charliesmum & a big

 

Wow what a busy house, sounds as mad as mine Look forward to hearing all about Charlie i bet you have some stories to share

[danmcq]

Welcome Charliesmum!!

 

Nice introduction, you have quite the flock of critters and huimans there. I'll bet there is never a dull moment. :-)

[charliesmum]

oh i forgot to mention i also have 2 orange winged amazons but my step dad took them {Feel-bad-0002006A}

Hello and welcome to the family, Charliesmum, glad you could join us and we look forward to hearing more about you and Charlie.

 

I see from your introduction that you have quite the flock but 2 less amazons due to a step dad, even though you don't have them with you I am sure you do get to see them from time to time, I hope.

 

How interesting that you have a grey that is the same age as you, your participation in this forum will give us members of younger greys an insight into what we can expect as they get older. And I am sure you have some stories you could tell us from the years you have had Charlie, maybe you will share a few with us sometime.

 

Please read thru the many threads on various topics for lots of useful information and do not hesitate to ask any specific questions you may have. We will do our best to help you in any way we can.

 

If you have any pictures of Charlie you would like to share with us we would love to see him and we have an other birds section where you can post photos of them also if you would like.

thank you i do have some stories to tell but does anyone elses parrot get moody during the winter or is it just the lord and master?

[charliesmum]

my mum has just told me that i could have a ring necked parakeet my uncle has bought one for his daughter in law and she is too scared to go near him he is 6 months old and likes to dance to music {Feel-good-00020114}

How wonderful for you, those are very pretty birds, her loss is your gain, congrats on the new addition to your flock!! B)

[charliesmum]

thank you i will have 5 birds then does this entitle me to some funding to feed them oh i forgot to mention that i am a nursing student and get a small bursary but once every 2 weeks i spend about 15 pounds on food and treats such as fresh veg and fruit!

[judygram]

Don't we all wish we were entitled to some funding, feeding our birds does get expensive doesn't it, but they are worth every penny or pound......

Charliesmum, welcome here

hi there, yes i love all my birds to bits! eventhough charlie my grey ( the lord and master) decided after his 1 and a half hour tickle session ( this happens every night ) he took a chunk out of my finger!!! needless to say i told him NO and that mummy was not there for that and i moved away from his cage. he was looking at me to see what i was doing but at the same time saying " you ok, you alright, its ok, its ok. so i went back over to him and told him that i was ok then he went for me again!!!! ( and the things i do for him). so i gave him a time out , i covered his cage with a sheet for ten mins. after he was all loving again.
