Just got his cage fully prepared for him to come home, though might have to lower some perches depending on how he's been sleeping lately. Take a looksie: http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k470/lokicag/Gym%20and%20cage/DSCN0884.jpg http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k470/lokicag/Gym%20and%20cage/DSCN0886.jpg http://i327.photobucket.com/albums/k470/lokicag/Gym%20and%20cage/DSCN0887.jpg They're kinda big, hence the links instead lol.

Tycos_mom Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Thats wonderful you better find somthing to make the time fly past or its going to seem like time stopped.:laugh: I know how excited you must be I was the same way when I got my Baby Irn and my GCC I really think thats part of the fun. When your baby gets home your going to feel like a brand new mommy worried weather or not your doing everything right. I know when I brought Sprout home I toilet trained him right away. Because I was so worried about him mabie getting sick from any poop in his cage. I must have change his paper about 20 times in the first couple of day's and his water at least 5 time a day:laugh: I was a very over protective mom I made everyone wash all the way up to their elbows before they could even go near him. Silly eh:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaedyn Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 That's not that sily at all. I still make visitors wash their hands before handling any of my fids. Especially if they are smokers. Broomer: The hardest part for me would be trying to get any sleep at all the night before. The excitement keeps my brain active and I stay wide awake almost the entire night. And of course all I want to do the whole time is fall asleep, so tomorrow would get here fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abernathy Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 That's a very nice cage and set up. I'm sure Loki will love it. The night before I brought Morgan home I did more tossing and turning than sleeping. My husband was ready to kick me to the couch lol. I can't wait to hear about Loki's home coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siobha9 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Lovely cage... just a bit empty;) You're not a bit excited are you? Have you got new batteries for the camera? That's the most important thing you need when you bring home your new baby:P Co we will need lots of pictures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siobha9 Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Well done on the batteries;) Lets get the priorities right!:laugh: You're lucky so, I'm with Kaedyn on the not being able to sleep when I'm excited. Always makes for a very miserable Christmas because I'm always so tired:P . I still get excited at Christmas:laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broomer Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 Hehe, well, we'll see tonight I'm sure hehe. Could just be wishful thinking. It'll be interesting at work today, thankfuly I'm working with a few people I really enjoy working with, or I'd be miserable. Just hoping my Boss doesn't give me the "I don't care what you need, you have to be here Wednesday" speech. We have our initial vet visit Wed. He'll be in for a shock when I tell him off lol. I think I might be a bit on edge today ... lol My boss is the jerk of all bosses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Thanks Bryan for thinking of me, you silly fool, head over heels in love with a grey, but hey there is nothing like it, won't be long now.

Kaedyn Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Broomer: Just a word of caution. I have that same wooden branch and it's a might bit slippery. Loki being so young, probably won't get much grip on it. If you find that to be the case yourself, you could always try wrapping some vet-wrap around it. I also have the exact same rope and concrete perch. Those are great! The concrete perches from Polly's keep their nails trimmed, yet don't seem to irritate their feet.

There is a Tack shop on our way to the breeder, but I doubt Kim will willingly stop before seeing Loki lol. Also, been wondering if vet-wrap is ok in the cage for when he's not being supervised, since I've heard that some birdies chew it like gum lol. I could always break out the Drummel tool tomorrow and cut some grooves or something into it, but don't want to be using that near Loki ... hmm scratch that. Or sandpaper .... hmmm hehe. Yeah once I cleaned the perch yesterday, it went from fine, to slippery, was wondering about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broomer Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 And he's home and asleep at last! All day all he wanted to do was climb climb climb. Normaly onto Kim or my shoulder or head :blink:. He was chirping and grunting away all day, while exploring the livingroom and sleeping on Kim (then pooping down her shirt when they both woke up :lol: :laugh: :silly:). Check out the new Video on my Youtube account. The link is in my signature :lol: :silly:. Thanks everyone for thier anticipation and support. The only thing that has me so far is being able to tell if his crop is full during his feedings hehe, he hides it well with all those feathers. Breeder said that he's been refusing a lot of food recently, but because of the big move, that we should keep it up to 3 feedings a day for a few days.
