Eckobird Posted March 17, 2009 Author Share Posted March 17, 2009 Thanks everyone for the nice comments! Tycos_mom: Wow your baby is so much bigger than mine is and has alot more feathers, and its 5 days younger? lol thats weird! Mine has little white fuzz thats why it looks lighter, the feathers are starting to come in. Very cute though thanks for sharing! What are you going to name it? I am still deciding on what to name it, it is a very tough decision lol! Casper: C'mon you know you want another grey, one more won't hurt now will it? lol then you will have 4 and it will be even! hehe jk Post edited by: caitb2007, at: 2009/03/16 23:56<br><br>Post edited by: caitb2007, at: 2009/03/16 23:59 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycos_mom Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I think Its the Formula that my breeders uses I saw some greys when I was there that where 8 weeks old and already trying to fly. Its made be zupreem and he says that the birds seem to do way better on it then they did when he used to feed the exact formula. any way your right this guy of mine is growing like a bad weed I can see a differenc just in the 2 days that I've had him he's going to be one big bird I think. I'm glad the breeder gave me a couple pounds of the Zupreen formula because I don't know where to get it around here when I get low on his I'm going to have to mix it half and half with the exact so I can transfer him over.

Eckobird Posted March 22, 2009 Author Share Posted March 22, 2009 Hey everyone, I went to visit my baby this weekend and I got to feed it for the first time! It was pretty cool and really easy! S/he is 7 weeks old now. The breeder is sexing him this week so I find out next week if its a girl or boy and then I can finally name it. And hopefully I get to take him home next friday, it depends if it is on 2 feedings by then. I still have not decided on any names yet so suggestions are welcome. Heres a pic and a video of me feeding it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSerCK_U5aw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvparrots Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Caitlin, you were doing a great job in that video, just an old pro with the baby feeding, how exciting!!!! Is that right by next Friday you might be able to bring your baby home???? You must be thrilled to pieces!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolandFamily Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Aww Caitlin I just saw the video you look like a pro, I have youtube too and added you on there I know you can't wait for your baby to come home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaxtersMom Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I love all the pictures. Your baby is so cute!!! I'm sure everyone will help out with names for your baby and you will find one but you might want to name him or her after it comes home. That way you can see it's personality and give em a name that really fits his character. I bet you are so excited and anxious:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 What a cute baby photo and video. I did feel sorry for the other chick wanting some and being left out....poor baby. Did you pratice by feeding it also? ;-) :-) Thanks for sharing this wonderful moment!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycos_mom Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 What a good job you did feeding your baby I was useing the shringe with my baby but I switch over to the paper cup method I like it better and baby seems to take the formula better that way also. I don't know if you have ever heard of it before but its a really easy way to feed I just use 3 paper cups inside each other and then squeeze the cups into a v shape and the pour the food into baby's mouth its allot like spoon feeding but faster and less messy and the shape of the cup is more like a mama birds beak.

Eckobird Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hey guys! So I talked to my breeder today and she said that I can take home my baby tomorrow after work! AHHH the day has finally come and I AM SOOO EXCITED!!:woohoo: I am also getting really nervous now because I am going to be handfeeding it. It is still on 3 feedings a day but soon will be on 2 feedings. I think this is going to be a good experience for me since I am studying to be a veterinarian. My boyfriend and I have been ready for this for soo long and we have just about everything. Cage, toys, swings, food, playstand, harness, vet etc. We both took off some days of work so we can spend time with the baby also. I don't know how I am going to get through work all day tomorrow with all this excitement I have. I guess I will be on here to take my mind off of it. :laugh: Heres a pic of the cage with the boing: And here is the playstand with the atom swing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for you:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tycos_mom Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Oh my Thats wonderful news I can't wait til tomorrow so you can tell us all how eveything was coming home and how baby is settleing in I hope you have as much fun with your baby as I am haveing with Shady. Shady willalready lay on his back in my hand without even holding on with his feet. He is such a trusting little thing and so happy curious and playful. My vet said that he's getting big enough to start offering him fruits and veggies. She said he probubly won't eat any yet but he with play with them and pick at them and all that helps with the weaning process. So yesterday I bought a few jars of baby food I'll start putting a little of that out along with his Zupreem pellets. He likes to crunch them up I don't think he really eats them but he chews on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
