Tomorrow is the day that our African Grey (Congo) parrot gets to come home. He's finally weaned off the liquid diet and ready to eat yummy fruits, vegetables, grains, and pretty much everything except avocados (which are basically poison to some parrots-and I have a slight allergy to them as well

It is a moral imperative to teach him how to say "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"

[quicksilvermad]

Of course, I'm gonna teach him that. It was the first thing that came to mind after we named him.

He's a stunner! Did you get him from DJ?

[quicksilvermad]

We got him from Tammy, who runs the shop. She hand-feeds all the babies until they're ready to go to their homes. She also offers free toenail trims and wing clipping. Which is handy, seeing as it's something I always hate doing.

You need to teach him to say "You shall not pass"

[quicksilvermad]

I'm totally teaching him that. And: "Fly, you fools!"

LOVE your new snarky avatar! My cockatiel liked to shower with me. Odd bird.

Thanks!

Our Senegal parrot will only take baths to the point where her head is soaking wet. Otherwise, she hates being in sprayed water. I don't know what Gandalf likes to do, yet. At least he doesn't automatically hate me when I vacuum.
