sorry wasn't very clear Felt mean when he screamed at the vets getting his wings clipped after work. Shayne had flying lesson in morning before work and i felt terrified watching him. They didn't get to see each others adventure. But good news he stepped up onto a perch today for me. Thank goodness ...

Well the irony of today is not lost on me. We took Tonka in to get his wings clipped (very sad bird) and Took my oldest son shayne to his first flying lesson (going for his pilot license). A very strange feeling. I felt so mean as Tonka screamed and terrified as shayne flew past at 160km an hour. St...

ok. We used a towell and waited till it was dark. Heck he is a savage bugger when caught. My husband got him and his hands are all chomped. The vet is going to clip him and do his toenails tuesday night after work so we can get it done. Yay for the new vet in town. A stroke of luck She might leave t...

Thanks. We sat his cage on the table at tea time, opened it and his tea just outside the door. Ignored us till we were cleaning up, then took off. The temp has risen to 40 c or about80 dgrees f. We can't catch him and are all half naked. The sun won't go down for another 1 1/2 hrs. Bring on the dark...

Wow, I hope you are well over it now. Really nasty stuff. I got thrown from a horse when i was 16. The drs put me on codiene and it didn't help so they mixed it with morphine and upped doses. I got addicted and after a few mnths it built up in my system and I overdosed. I was living alone on a farm ...

Thanks. We tried that and he didn't want to know about scary perchs either. We left the door open and every 20 mins or so we would try again. Eventually 3 hrs later we got him on and as i bought him out of the cage he took off and flew into walls and the fish tank etc. He then perched on the cieling...

Tonka is about 4 or 5 mnths old. I have got him to the point where he comes up to the front of his cage when i talk to him but he stays as far away from my hand as possible if i put it in the cage. i can sit next to his cage for up to an hour with his evening fruit n veg on my hand in his cage and h...

Tonka is green. we chose the name for that reason. he looks like a little tank and its a great name for a boys pet that will still be a cool name as they age together unlike the sheep named brum brum and fish named herpies Feel free to s teal the name we would be proud for tonka to be a namesake. le...

That is funny . Tonka has obssesive compulsive disorder and cleans like a disgruntled mother in law. All toys, food etc must be in a bowl. If he cant get it up to one he sits on the bottom of his cage with it and screams till you put a ladder to a food bowl. Only mess he makes is putting stuff in hi...

Hi, I'm a newbie to birds but have a horse, dog, cat, turtles and 8 fish tanks . My older son has a sheep, cat and dog. My youngest only had a horse and started hassling for a parrot at 18 mnths. He would make traps on the lawn 3 times a week and cry when he didn't catch one . Shayne (oldest boy) sa...
