I GOT MY NEW BABY!!!
Posted: Sat Nov 12, 2005 3:26 pm
Hello everyone,
Well I did it! I got my new baby and we've named him/her Remmi. Here are a couple photos. Now mind you Remmi was with other babies and the breeder said they've been picking on each other. So if he looks a little raggedy that's why. But I don't care, he/she has the sweetest personality! And BLUE EYES!!! Do they always have blue eyes when they're young?? I fell in LOVE with the eyes. You can't tell in the photos the color of Remmi's eyes, but they are blue. Here's my new baby!
I haven't stopped holding him (that's what I'm going to refer to him as from now on) since we've gotten home and we've been home about 4 hours now!
Here's another photo.
Well here's one to show you that we aren't ignoring Byndi for the new baby. He sat on my shoulder nice as could be today once we got him home. They've had a couple confrontations on the play stand. But... Isn't he just gorgeous!!!
I'm so glad we decided to keep him!
Hugs,
Jen

Remmi is just the sweetest little bird! Loves to cuddle. We're going to work with him tomorrow on learning to "step up." He will but he flaps those little wings just like Byndi does. And sometimes he screams. Sounds JUST LIKE Byndi when he screams too. I'm so excited you guys. How AWESOME to actually be able to sit and hold one and scratch it and love on it and not have it taking flesh off of your hands in the process. I REALLY have noticed a change in Byndi since we've been home. I don't know if it's the toenail clipping and the wing trimming. Or if he's seeing Remmi interact with us and it's not that bad or what. But I had them both on the playstand earlier and got a water bottle out and gave them a "bath." Both sat there and just enjoyed it. Then I got the hairdryer out and both let me dry them with it. Byndi was on top of the playstand--on the ladder-and Remmi was on the perch. So when it was done I had to get towels to dry the stand off. And when I reached up to dry the ladder off that Byndi was perched on he DIDN'T move at all. He didn't freak! He just sat there. And he's been coming out of his cage and not breaking his neck to get back in when we walk toward it! My husband actually walked to the cage and stood in front of it and talked to Byndi and he didn't even try to go back in!!! So.... I'm SO GLAD we kept him. I know Darin would've given him a great home, but I would've been heart broken. I cried the night Darin messaged me and told me they WOULD take him. When I told my husband I was just bawling. And he said we were going to keep him. And I'm so glad we did. I love the little you know what. Thanks for all your help and advice. You are great! Boy this is getting long. Oh! By the way. Darin and I have sibling birds. So that's going to be cool. We can compare! Chat with you soon.
