judygram Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 You are not kidding when you say you have a few birds, wow they must keep you busy feeding, cleaning out cages and such. Do they get along together, do you have a birdroom or do they have separate cages. I only have a Cag and a sun conure plus 1 finch and they keep me busy, I can't imagine what you must deal with every day. Would love to see some pictures of them if you would share with us, we have an other birds room where you could post them, hint, hint!! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MazyAK Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Greetings mommafawkes: you do have quite the flock. Love the picture and look forward to hearing your input .Anybody with that many birds is bound to be an asset on this site. Bruce & Mazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaFawkes Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Judy I just realized I never answered you question!! We have a bird room but they all have their own cages in there. However the "big" birds are in my room... Aries,Fawkes,Pocco also the finches, canaries and Budgies and my baby birds. They get seperate out of cage time mostly, though Aries, Pocco, and Fawkes are out on their cages all day and just basically ignore eachother. They watch the fish and the little birds and talk to eachother when Im not in the room. Aries however is very quiet and really only makes little clicking and kissing noises. But they all do get daily interaction time with me, also Titus and Truman play together on occasion...but Truman tends to get hormonal after that so we try to avoid it now.

judygram Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Thank you MommaFawkes for answering my question, I figured you probably did have a room just for them with that many but wasn't sure. I guess that pretty much takes up your day spending time with each and every one of them, you are so lucky that it all works out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurie Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hi, and welcome! Wow, that is a LOT of birds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaFawkes Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Yeah it is a lot of birds!!! You would all die laughing if you knew where I lived!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! Ok ok...I live in a two bedroom duplex...pay out the ears for my birds...each conure cost me $30 a month to keep here and Fawkes Costs $40!!! Each and every one of my pets costs me extra every month!!! I pay well over $200 a month JUST for the animals...add that on to my rent and :blink: Yeah im crazy...but believe it or not we are not cramped for space and even have room for a few more.....

siobha9 Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 There is another thread... you know your a bird person when... we should add a line about when you pay $200 a month just for rent for your birds. And they take up way less floor space than human children. I wonder would your landlord charge $40 a child if you were to have more kids???? Unbelievable ! But you obviously love your birds, if I had to pay a monthly rate per bird I probably would have been cured of MBS by now! Siobhan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
