Hello everyone! Newbie here... :-)

[LordFranzG]

Hello Members,

I'm Franz and I'm new member here... I'm an interior designer who currently owns:

1 CAG - Zoe (Adopted)
1 Sun Conure - Maverick (still hand feeding)
1 Cockatiel - Ziggy (Adopted)
2 Indian Ringnecks - Sebastian and Chanel (so in love with each other)
2 Budgies - Tom and Jerry (silly bros)
7 African Lovebirds (3 pairs and a baby) - Bowie, Ellie and an unnamed 1 week old baby. Oli and Ari. Miles and Peaches. (All adopted)

Looking forward to hearing from you all, to getting my questions answered and to hopefully share my knowledge about my feathered friends.

Cheers!
LordFranzG

Welcome to the forum, Franz! Thanks for a great introduction and pics of your flock. You definitely have a great selection of companions.

Thank you, Scott! Unfortunately, since I haven't explored the gallery settings much, my photos are all sideways! Haha once I get that sorted, I will post more photos of the other flock members. Or maybe I should just start shooting in landscape rather than portrait. :04:

Welcome, awesome family!

Welcome to Parrot Forums!

Look forward to hearing of your experiences with all your Parrots.

FYI: If you have any plans on coming to the USA at some time in the future to live here. Assure that you are well aware of the limits on the number of Parrots that an individual can bring into the USA as pets. The process 'may' require lineage information, so you 'may' need to have records of purchase. You will need Vet care information and that will include some very specific Vet examinations and testings. Better to be gathering that information early then being pressed to gather it all in the months prior to your travel.

Again, welcome to Parrot Forums!

Thank you for the info. Unfortunately, since a lot of them are adopted (and I'm the 3rd owner of some), they no longer have the documents. But I don't see it as a problem, as I own the property here in the Philippines. This could be their forever home. My business is here so I spend more time here than in the states. Even though I grew up there, I've actually been spending more than half a year in Asia and just a couple of months in the states. Been doing that for almost 10 years now. I have 2 household staff here who know the flock very well and have bonded with them and are very much capable of taking care of the flock everytime I travel. :04:
