Hi Yogi, you must have join long before I did as I can't recall visiting with you here. I join this forum back in Jan of 2012. It was not very busy with only about 20 regulars coming to post a bit. By the end of 2012 almost no one came on and Darren & Marlene the founders & admin deciced to give the forum back to the domain owner. They had other things they were involved in that took their time away from here. I'm still close intetnet friends with them, but miss them dearly here.
Anyway, I am so glad to see you pop in and say Hi!!! I'm a bit late coming over to chat with you, sorry bout that. Oh Qwerty sounds adorable & I love his name. As we all know too well, our birds are famous for learning what they want to say & saying what they shouldn't at the most inopportune times.
I love the blue color Quakers & thought I wanted one once or twice but decided not to add any more birds to my flock.
Yep I know what you mean about the pionus & that beak!!! Umm I have one that is coming up 3 yrs old. Not sure if it is a male or female, but for something to call it I chose it to be a she since she is so temperamental like PMS!!
She is a white capped pionus whose official name is Sierra Sunrise. When she first began to talk she sounded like the old Star Wars movie Ewoks. So I called her that so much she thinks that is her name or my name.
Still not sure which on that one. She will not allow me to hold her & can deliver a bite that rivals an Amazon's.
Please do show us some photos of your feathered kids. I think the pallad greens are beautiful!!
