Raposa Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 My baby bird is scheduled to come home a week from tomorrow. But my plans have changed a bit for this weekend, and it is possible I could go get her sooner (that is, of course, if the breeder would even let me have her a week early!) . . . unfortunately, with it being tax weekend, she probably would not get the attention I can give her next weekend. And I do expect to have some company in the house this weekend which might be a bit disruptive to a new baby . . . And next week I'd have her cage area and toys better set up, and . . . dang it, I want her NOW! ~sigh~ Decisions, decisions . . . But at the very most, it is only ONE MORE WEEK until Jenna comes home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 You are an impatient momma waiting for her baby to come home, I don't blame you but this one week will pass soon enough and then you will have the rest of your life to enjoy Jenna:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raposa Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 Very true, Judy! And actually, I'm not feeling great the past few days, and I'd hate to bring the baby home and then be too sick to enjoy her! ~chuckles wryly~ I can survive another week . . .

Raposa Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 ~grins~ Wanna come over next Friday and go get the baby with me, Judy? You could get a GREAT baby bird fix at the breeder's . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acappella Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Don't you hate it when you ask a question you already know the answer to, and then people give you the answer you know is right but don't want to hear:P Besides, if you got the baby early I'll bet you'd feel guilty about not giving either your bird or your guest the attention you should. Hope the week goes fast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raposa Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Guess what . . . .I called Wendy, the breeder, on Saturday morning and she said come ahead, Jenna is ready to go home! SO I have my baby at home with me! She is doing amazingly well. She had very little difficulty with the ride in the car (about an hour, and she was in an acrylic bird carrier) and is settling in well in her new home. She has flown to me quite a few times ~beams happily~ And she is getting used to the sounds and sights of the new place. My mom called this morning to tell me Jenna was singing away to herself after I left for work. So PATIENCE? Bah. Over-rated!!! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raposa Posted April 15, 2008 Author Share Posted April 15, 2008 Oh GOODNESS yes! And Jenna has been so helpful already! She helped me file my taxes online this evening,and she helped redecorate the living room by covering it with warm oatmeal . . .A terrific new look indeed. Do greys automatically know how to wolf whistle or did she pick that up from the breeder's husband? ~chuckles~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siobha9 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I particularly like the textured effect the oatmeal gives on the walls. The best advice is to move the cage a couple of inches every week or so to get an even effect No she learned that whistle somewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
