OK, even tho' once it gets here I will no longer get to come over here & proudly post pics of my future fiddie, I still wanted to share my excitement in it. smile3

I finally found a breeder in Texas who still breeds & sells Green Wing Macaws. handshappy loveuk I have wanted one since the early 90s when I can remember seeing my first picture of a GW.  drool This lady, her name is Helga (Yep, she's German) lives in Mission, TX. which is a loooong way from me, but we will deal with that when the time comes.  :deer:

As I figured she does not have any babies left from this years hatching, but she is putting me on her waiting list for one next year. clap That works out perfectly for me, I will have plenty of time to scrape up the price. And I have to tear out the utility closet in the corner of the living room opposite side of where Roscoe & Angel's aviary sits.  dmblaf

I was already planning to tear that closet out & putting another aviary in its spot to just be ready if I ever found my Green Wing. :twirl: Once I get my building added to the front of the house that I will move my bedroom in, I plan on tearing out the wall between my now bedroom & where Roscoe & Angel's aviary sits. I will then move their aviary into that room along with Leyla Belle's cage to free up the front area where it was for all the play perches & other fiddie stuff. smile3

It sounds like I am devoting a lot of my living room to the fiddies, confused but I never used that front area for much anyway. roll My house is really small, but I still basically use the back half for living in & it is all one big room. My computer & table sits behind my sofa (the dogs' sofa to be exact) & looks directly at my big screen t.v. & all this is just a few steps away from my kitchen. So, what more could I ask for in creature comfort?!! dknow laffhrd  wink1

Anyway, it will probably be around this time next year before I get to bring my baby GW home hugu or maybe even longer depending when it is big enough for me to take over feeding. I could take it at 6 wks., but I am not comfortable with that tiny a baby & hand feeding. sad8 I will opt for around 5 months like Roscoe if I can. think That is a good age to continue feedings. thumb  smile3 hugu

Yep you better get started on a name. confused Cuz right now I can't think of a really good one & you are so good at it.  wink1 thumb

It's gonna' be a long year, hmm but it gives me new incentive every time I go to work & think, "Why do I keep coming here wearing myself out & feeling unappreciated?" dknow Oh yeah, "For my critter kids!"  :loveuk:No better reason in the world!!  hugu smile3

Thank ya'll very much for the congrats. Yes, my flock will be complete with the GW...I think... confused No, really that should round out my want list & my room for my fiddie flock.  smile3

I have always loved macaws even before I got Roscoe & Angel, but after spending almost a year with those two, I love macaws way more than I ever thought possible. :twirl: loveuk

They are the parrot for me! hugu Now, if I could just figure out how to add a hyacinth... dmblaf
