so my lineolated keets dna test came back so now im looking for a buddy.
ive found a green male who needs a good home, he lost his mate when a lovebird got loose and killed her, and now the guy is cutting back on his birds due to health this little guy has been left behind because everyone wants breeding pairs or handfed babies...
so im going to meet him tomorrow and assuming he looks healthy he'll be comming home.
of course he'll be quarrenteined and then SLOWLY introduced to loki and hopefully theyll become good frineds.
loki was hand fed but unfortunatly is not a fan of comming out of the cage, and without comming out i simply cant provide the interaction...so a buddy it is assuming they bond to eachother
hes a little green boy, who has no name...
my current linni is loki, but theres no norse names that realy apeal to me...
so im looking for some good ideas...
so far my 3 faves are verde, cricket and kiwi, with cricket and kiwi in the lead. linnies are quiet chirpy birds so cricket is winning lol
any ideas?
im so excited.
i spend so much time with jack and loki wants to interact with him but he could eat loki and probably would judging by his responce when hes neer loki's cage. (jack is a sever macaw) so im REALY hoping this works out....
the adoption fee is right, and aparently he was origioanlly hand raised and only 2 1/2 yrs old so he could definatly be tamed down a little with some patients...but im more interested in them being there for eachother.
lol, aint they stinkin cute?!
there so sweet souding, i mean loki can get loud if she hears another bird peeping (sounds like when your smoke detector batteries are dying lol) but its short lived.
they are fairly good talkers too, loki says "hi" and 'good morning" and "what ya doing" and "night" and "JACK!" and tryign to get more, its such a itny cute little voice lol.
well, i think ive decided on Cricket, hes a peeper lol.
i whent to meet his breeder this morning, very nice guy, Cricket was origionally hand fed, then paird up and had 3 clutches before his mate was tragically killed by a lovebird who escaped the cage .
so i met him, and after seeing that little face was sold, hes a very pretty bright green, hes not the 'normal" green phase but seems to have more yellow...and amazingly easy to handle, hes not a biter hes very calm, will let you hold him no problems...(suprising because he was a breeder)
so i brought the little guy home, got him set up in a quarrentein cage, and he imedially started peeping away, took a drink then dug into his food, this is a GREAT sign as stressed birds dont eat.
ive got a feeling hes going to fit right in without a problem LOL...
hes sooo cute, ill need to get pictures once im sure hes settled in.
well this is cricket...please excuse the bad picture...ill get some better ones once hes realy truly settled in
and this is lokie
