Hi my names Natalie and I have MBS!!

But I dont have a problem with it, its just everyone else

Hi my name is Angie and I have MBS!!

I have 10 fids !! and counting .. I really think eventually I can control this problem, brb my Jordy is calling me from the bird room ...

Sniff... I think I may have a problem. It could be the MBS everyone is talking about but I know I can control it. I have one green ringneck and I am picking up 2 more today. I have 2 pairakeets would like get get 2 girls soon for them. I have 1 cockateil but I am sure he will need a friend. I would love to get a congo grey or a sulfer crested cockatoo one day.

See I can control this I only have tike 6 fids now yay me.

MBS is good as long as you know what your getting yourself into. So many people (not saying anyone here) get in way over their heads and can't properly care for what they take in be it a baby or a rescue. I know in some cases I've seen first hand people feel the need to rescue a bird for what ever reason and then find they just can't handle either the second hand bird baggage that it comes with or the noise and even the messes so please make sure you know your limits for the birds sake.

I have 10 most are rescues with major issues.


Donna

See I reckon if I deny that i have a problem then i can get more

<puts her hand up> excuse me Miss Neo .. um, I was thinking .. do we have to name birds that visit our yard regularly that we have named Like Buckley the Magpie and Scoot the blackbird ? is that part of MBS ?

brb again .. Billy is ringing his new bell I just gave him and wants a treat now

I have the disease but I dont have the room for another. I NEED my fix!
I am owned by 2 IRNs, Jibby and Yoda.

I dream all day and all night of being owned by Eclectus... more IRNs... Alexandrines... Sun conures... Macaws... Amazons... CAGs... lovebirds... I can only wish right now. One day!

Nup .. Geelong (222) woohoo! Go Ablett .. Go Torpedo ! Actually I am more of a Basketball Nutcase, my son is my Star Player, but I follow the New South Dragons (Go Heale! you sexy thing) and NBA I follow the Cavs and Miami Heat. When I was in Florida I went to watch Orlando Magic play the Cavs.. that was awesome, they know how to put on a show, just like their 4th July. I will miss the 4th this trip (sob!!), leave in 18 days, woohooo! .. oops sorry .. Birds .. right!

GO THE SWANNIES see they are birds too

Plus the cat, rabbit and fishies... I have a problem but I think it can be fixed with more pets..? Or maybe less boyfriend...

*stands up to face the crowd*
Im Emma, and i spose ud say i have MBS too. I have my 2 Ringneck babies, and would love more, but as many of u seem to have the same problem, u understand my symptoms are only held in check by my partner.
So, in the meantime, i love everyone elses fids, goto friends places and wanna see their birds b4 they even offer a coffee haha.

Dani

Okay guys....fess up -- am I really the only truly pathetic case here..... I have to count beaks (some given away, some born, some fostered.....), but am somewhere between 35 and 40 fids. Most of them are lilttle guys -- finches, canaries and budgies. And I seem to remember offering to take some Gouldians for someone who was moving, but maybe I didn't really do that...... we shall see!

I will really need help in a few months, I will have to not get attached to then be able to let go of IRN babies and Quaker babies sigh!

so perhaps this thread will have MBS rub off on me tee hee. I have one IRN and a budgie. I am looking for another budgie possibly. Last week when i was wandering around the pet store a blue fronted amazon to quite a liking to me he was so damn cute.

Hi, my name's Danni and I have MBS. I have one blue IRN, one miniature red crowned lorikeet and two lovebirds. I had one lovebird until I saw this gorgeous violet masked lovebird on the weekend and had to get my other lovebird a friend.
I am wanting to get another IRN in the future. It's incredible, I just can't help myself.

A blue fronted amazon .. Go git im

Dont you all feel better knowing that you are not the only one with this problem, and when your partner looks at you like your crazy you can see all the replies on this thread and just know that birds just do that to people..

And when that wild eye'd flufball in that toy filled cage worth a weeks wage looks at your fingers like they are the next meal of the day we'll be there with the med kit cos we are all owned by birds.

My name is Jenna, and I have 4 fids and counting now, we got another one! Woo Hoo! It is a sun conure!

Congrats on the sunny ! pics ?

Oh my gosh I love sunnies!, Congradulations! Yes pweeese pics!?

We have another bird sale coming up on the 26th of may and when you consider my birthday is on the 28th I think I should be able to swing at least another bird my way

Isn't MBS wonderful...I may be adding a little rescue cockatiel to the flock. Will know next week. Frosty has been at Gainesville Cockatiel Rescue since last May (2006)....You can see his pic and story on their website. http://plaza.ufl.edu/jhugus/birds_for_adoption.html, he is the last bird on the page

aww the little Whiteface Pied, how cute, what a pretty tiel. Let us know how it goes.

For those that cannot get the link, take the comma off the end of the link address

......if you just get into the Zen of MBS, the birds come to you on their own......

"as I stand up and face the room"
I have a confession, I knew I had MBS, but I would not control it and now my hubby and son have it. 13 yr old son has 2 budgies, 2 lovebirds, and one Indian Ringneck. I have one Indian Ringneck, one male cockatiel, and one baby Sun Conure..now hubby has MBS really bad this season. He is owned by 2 female cockatiels and the new addition is 1 Greecheek Concure and one Yellow sided Concure..the conures were rescues. They are not even out of quarentine yet and have graced hubby with 6 eggs...So looks like we will be Conure breeders...Hmmm, that 12 fids, plus at least 6 or more (she is not done laying yet)!!!!!

Oh boy cindy .. with the whole family infected you don't have a chance

Hi my names Bryan and I have 27 birds, with a wide variety and planing to have allot more he he, over the past 6 weeks I have brought home at least one bird and the most 4 birds per week

Catschair, Bryans catching up to you.

thats my boy .. busy little beaver. One of the most amazing kids with fids is our Bryan.

I think pretty muchly everyone that posted in the what mutation do you have poll needs to update because just about everyone has added to it.

hey Julie, good to see you back. I am just beginning to post here again as well....needed to leavefora while.

I see mbs has been active in your household since I last saw you!

Oh geez...he is coming close, I gave away a couple. Think I am getting a lovebird soon, though I haven't heard back from the lady (she is a cat rescuer and found him in an alley with a sign saying free....can you imagine). Don't think I can keep up with Bry's pace and keep my day job, though!
