Hey Ya'll:
Here are some pics of my 10 week old IRN, named India. And her best friend, Ms Kitty. Isn't she pretty!? Her tail feathers are blue... odd huh? But pretty nonetheless.
This link should take you to my baby's pic page. Enjoy!

Zoe:
Good judge of character! She is so prissy and so bitchy (can I say that here)? She demands whatever she wants and I jump. She has me trained GREAT! I have her stepping up and down and not eating me alive ALL the time, just usually. Our relationship improved 10-fold when I stopped letting her push me around. I handled her way to easily and she took advantage of my short-comings as a Mama. Those days are over now and she knows I am top bird. Are most Irn's eyes all black like that? I see some with rings around them and different colors. Is that the camera playing tricks or different mutations? Also, I have noticed that alot of birds are ratty looking after a few years. Is that all birds or birds that arent fed and bathed as they should be. I want my baby to stay beautifully dark emerald.
She still tries to bite (only when she is in her cage but the lunging is rare now. By nature, she is/was a very aggressive bird but she is never in the cage and right by me and she and I both love it that way. I'm just not allowed to touch her unless she so chooses. Otherwise she opens that beak like someone is actually scared of her (use to be). I take my index finger and 'place' it on her top beak pushing it closed and firmly saying NO BITE with an ugly face and calm, but stern voice. The rest of my family treat her like a frigging yard snake. AHHHH get that bird away from me before she plucks my eyes out. OOOOOhhhh but the day we got her EVERRYONE was going to help sooo much. NOONE has even helped me as much as changing her water. Thank GOD I am a committed person because I knew I was making a 30 year committment.
Boy or Girl?

Do you know if your baby is a boy or a girl? He is sort of prissy looking but I still believe you have a boy. Fairly new to birds but seem to have a nack for sexing, it seems.
At least I am *usually* right
How old? Looks to be in great condition.

Shew, good thing I said *usually*
He is a dainty thing though. Or maybe he is just too pretty to be a boy.

Thank you. I lucked out, really. I happened to have gotten one with really good color (really poor temperment). Meaning, she lunges at everyone except me and chases away potential lovers
I am not easily occupied to say the least but this bird has entertained me for months. ALWAYS something funny, always silly stuff for attention and when that fails, she mumbles hateful stuff at me under her breath. She is something. Actually... she is my best friend.
