Please don't hit me.

When Jingle was brought into the store back in December he came in with a Lessor Sulfur Crested Cockatoo. The bird is just as playful as Jingle and just as sweet. I've gone in a few times and every time I go in the bird was sitting on the owner's shoulder and preening the owner. Sunday the owner finally said that I could have the bird (for a fee). So, yesterday I went and picked up Jingle's friend (they had been together for 10-12 years) and brought him home.

Hit you?!

You're still lagging behind girlfriend! I have five, and that's DOWN from 11...

You're in the right place...

You're one of US...

EXCEPT to the rest of the world you may be "one of those."

(Screw them!) :D

My kids are getting mad at me. And maybe my dad. I'm sure my cats hate me by now.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!

I'm experiencing a system overload. Please wait while I reboot.

Dopey, you need to stop it. My MBS is getting so bad that I may need to go see a doctor! Ah, the pains of being an unstable minor...
Have fun with your 'too! Judging from what I've heard, they're a handful of trouble. More like a boatload, actually. Looking forward to more pictures!

I just wanted the two of them (Jingle and Yeti) back together. Yeti was looking so sad.

I had a cage that wasn't being used...that was the problem.

You got a Lessor Sulfur Crested Cockatoo? I love cockatoos! You guys are all trying to make me super jealous aren't you!!?? I think we need "proof" that you did indeed bring home a too. How about some pics?:D

**edit**

Ok, I guess we have to believe you now! I know, I see an empty cage, stall, barn, aquarium and I just HAVE to fill it!

I uploaded one pic.

I love the Toos too! Again, in the right place at the right time.
This one needs a shower/bath right now but I didn't want to traumatize him even more today.

Meanwhile my White Front still hates me. :rolleyes:

I'm sorry you have asthma. Toos are very loving and this guy is just the right size for me.

So good for you !!

I'M ACTUALLY CURED...

My flock is just right. Couldn't live without any of them. Don't want one more... (unless I could get Pecker and Py back from the dead. I still miss those two dearly... )

Welcome Home Yeti, you gorgeous bird! I'm late to this party, but so happy for you and Yeti and so glad Yeti is reunited with his buddy!

Sorry to hear your MBS is no longer in the early stages.

So glad there's a new Too parront! Misery does love company!

Thank you all so much. My last name is Snowman and every race car or boat we have owned we have named them the Abominable Snowman. So Yeti just kind of fit here.

She came willing out of her cage last night and made a bee line for my shoulder. I don't remember how I got her down but I finally did and we started over. I kept her off my shoulder for a while. She clings really tight and it hurts. Jingle used to do that but now he doesn't cling and what a difference.

I now have stereo sounds. Jingle's cage is on my left when I'm on the couch and Yeti's is on the right and they make the same unique noises. It's pretty funny when the covers are on...and then there is Whisper louder than both doing his growling. :D

It's funny, you reversed the letters (MSB instead of MBS) in the thread title, so I worried that it was an actual illness - then I clicked and realized what you meant! Sorry - I know folks with MS, so that's where my brain defaulted.

MBS is so much more fun!

Congratulations, and I love the name, too!
