Parrotdise Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 It's hard for me to get pics of Gil,because everytime he see's me he put his head down for a tickle. So I'll share a tickle pic. When he does it in his cage he puts his head down,stands on his boing and puts one foot on the front of the cage. He's stay like that all day. He's getting a lot of new feathers and so far I haven't seen him plucking any,so we're hoping that he'll keep the new feathers once they grow in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Awww, what a pretty boy he is. Notice he intently has his EYE on you. :-) Are you able to get him out of the cage? Thanks for sharing this photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrotdise Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 Gil comes out of his cage all the time,and for at least 6hrs a day. He really hates the camera and I really love my fingers so I did this one in the cage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parrotdise Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 Since I had a Congo rip into my wrist and caused me to have the tendon surgically reattached Dave007 wrote: """""I really love my fingers so I did this one in the cage.""""""""

Dave007 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Did he bite you or was it a claw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Ouch, thats quite a condition, was it Gil that did that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrotdise Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 She wasn't my bird,she was a baby I helped handfeed and she bit me,and severed the tendon. I'm not afraid of being bitten,but Gil has had enough in his life go wrong I don't see what pushing a camera in his face and worrying him to the point of wanting to bite would do for either of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerc25 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Sarah you have done an amazing job with Gil! He has come so far and is crazy in love with you already in this short time. I happen to like my fingers too so I am careful if Shaka Zulu seems in a biting mood. Earlier he almost fell from his playstand because he lost his balance. So I went and picked him up and took him to his cage because he feels safer there. He was mad and snatched a carrot from my hand and threw it across the room. Glad that was not my fingers hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave007 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 well, just by looking at your picture, it's pretty easy to see who's got the upper hand and who's spoiling who. Faces tell it all. It's in the eyes. Plain and simple--He's saying * you better not stop* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamsDad Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Cute picture! Gil's in heaven and he's giving you the look that melts hearts. I have to laugh about your comment of him staying there all day. My Sam is the same way at evening lap time. I scratch and scratch and scratch and.... I find myself wondering just how long he's want me to keep doing it - the likely answer frightens me! Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
