I am still trying to figure everything out. My name is Carol and i am a stay at home mom with 2 sons, 6 birds and 2 dogs.

I love making toys and treats for my birds so needless to say you will see my how to's quiet a bit

Hi Carol - welcome to the forum! Sounds like you have quite an interesting flock!

 

We will look forward to any how-to's you have to offer! The Homemade Toys and Playstands room is fairly new on this site, so it'll be great to have a prolific new contributor!

Welcome Carol and Flock!!

 

Wow six birds!

 

What are they? Looking forward to hearing more and seeing some photos of your flock. :-)

Hello Carol and welcome to the family, so glad you could join us and we look forward to hearing more about you and your birds.

 

I am impressed with the toys you are making, you have a very creative mind and we have a homemade toy and playstand room where you can share all those toys with us and include pictures too as some of us older folks need all the help we can get.

 

What kind of birds do you have? Is one of them a grey? You do not need to own a grey to be a member here, just a love for the species and I would say you qualify with six birds.

 

You will find lots of useful information in our many threads so do read thru them at your leisure and do ask questions you may have and we will help you in any way we can.

 

We would love to see some pictures of your birds, we have an other birds room where you can post them.

Hello Carol! It's great to have another member who enjoys making toys for their fids. Can't wait to hear more about your flock.

Welcome to the family Carol. Can't wait to see more of your great toys!!! Would love to see pictures of all of your birds.

Welcome Carol: Seems to me you have things figured out having 6 birds. Love to see some pictures. Lots of help and advice here.

I am having such a hard time posting my pictures, i have tons of stuff i made etc but cannot get use to using photo bucket. Why cant one just upload like on some of the other sites. saddddddddddddddd i would love to show off my babies.

Maybe this will help you with posting pictures Carol, try it and see.

 

To attach a picture to your post, you have to be in the FULL REPLY page not the quick reply that's usually down at the bottom of a thread. Toward the bottom there will be an option to 'select Image file to attach'. Click on the browse button, and select the picture from your computer. Then when you finish typing your post, hit submit, and it should show up in your post.

Thanks i did do that but it says image to big or something like that.

Thats usually why we use photobucket because you can resize them before posting, I don't know what format you have your photos in on your computer but if you could put them in a program that you can resize them then you will have it made.

Okay i will try and figure this out, thanks for your help. I am going to like this forum you all are so kind.

Hi Carol, and welcome to the forum! It really is a great place to come for advice. Plus everyone is so friendly and helpful! I'm a stay at home mom of 3, but I'm nowhere near as creative as you are, and I can't draw a stick figure much less make a toy! But I'll be looking forward to seeing your homemade bird toys! I could use some ideas! (Heck, maybe one of the kids could help me out if I can't make it myself! ) Nice to have you here!
