RIP Gandalf and Big Bird, you are missed.
After a long hiatus, I've reintroduced Nutri Berries as treats. Still only about half the flock like them!

Stewie looks so pleased with his big chunk of watermelon. Are the girls not fans?

BTW- brave man parking your bike in a room full of cockatoos:D Like a big toy with lots of stuff to chew and pull off...

The girls are not real big fans of fresh fruit and veggies, both will take small bites & then discard, both girls love pasta & brown rice.

Stewie loves everything.

I can't eat in the same room as Stewie, he runs down the cage & right up my leg, I usually have to make Stewie his own plate.

Thanks, they are all so good. Alot of people say 3 too's, your a brave man. But, they are a real joy, the greeting I get in the morning when I take off their covers, I get hello's from all 3, then they sit on their feeding perch & wait patiently for breakfast & a drink. They really get my day started on a good note.

I believe you help prove my notion that toos are best kept in pairs or flocks! Does not matter IMO that yours are different species.

That means TEN beady eyes! Also have a Citron, but she is not very mischievous, just doesn't like people so much.

Wish I could put all 5 Goffins in the same room, but that just wouldn't work even though they are a family!

Scott,

I want to get a Citron to complete the flock, almost adopted one last weekend, but the guy decided he couldn't let him go.

Well Scott...you know of the problems I had with The Cockatoo Man,Jonesy..but I will admit,I really do miss that little so-and-so :rolleyes: lol.

His new parronts own a convience store right down the road from me,and I'm in there frequently with Amy,and TJ,or Mukie are always giving me updates.
They love him to death and he has a special bond with TJ's daughter.
He eats well..he is now bi-lingual! ( English and Pakastani :eek: ;))
Mom and son are afraid to handle him,but TJ's hubby has no problems picking him up and gently tossing him in the air and catching him and they say Jonesy loves it and laughs. Hubby rolls a little golf ball sized wiffle ball and Jones runs after it,just to pick it up and bring it back to hubby lol.

He still screams some...and cusses :eek:..is fully flighted and will fly to daughters arm...or head. They really love him and it sounds like the feeling is mutual.
I feel I made the right choice when I rehomed him. They even invited me to come by their house and pay Bonesy a visit...I've been tempted lol...I wonder if the little PITA would remember me??? :confused: :rolleyes:

So disappointing. Citrons are wonderful but fairly rare companions. Keep searching, you'll be rewarded!
