Hi all!

My husband and I just acquired our beautiful Blue IRN, Emmie, two weeks ago from a great breeder. She turned 3 months old yesterday and is just a delight. My husband had a Conure a few years ago, who passed away, and Emmie is my first bird ever.

I am having an absolutely wonderful time with our new baby. She seems to have bonded very closely to me and loves to be near me whenever she can. She steps up with ease and even allows me to give her kisses on her back and on the top of her head. She bites a little bit, but I just chalk it up to her settling in and getting used to being handled. She eats well and has enjoyed some cooked broccoli and peas as well as her pellet/seed mix from the breeder. She is also very vocal and I'm hoping she'll be a good talker when she gets older.

I just got her a very large cage and put lots of toys in for her. She loves to chew on them and just seems to be an all-around happy little girl.

Hope to get great advice and read great stories on these boards.

:D
