    My bird is a softbill and not a parrot, but I still want to be an active member here. I encourage you to participate in the discussion of avian companionship. I think about my relationship with my canary a lot. I have owned many pets throughout the years, several species, and there wasn't a...

    Birdie Bonding

    Hey guys, I got a new baby white capped Pi last Wednesday, just under a week ago. Things were great the first couple days. the baby wanted out and on me all the time, was playful and sweet, wanted head scratches and to play on the couch. Although I think I may have accidentally screwed up her...
