Hello from Sarasota

[morpheus]

I've been lurking for a while and finally registered a day or two ago. I'm looking to purchase a Sun Conure so I thought it was time to come out of hiding. I currently have three canaries and two tiels.
Love reading the post here and taking advice on care and feeding of birds. I also enjoy getting to know the different breeds. Very interesting forum....Tom

Hi Tom! Welcome! I just got my Sun last month and I couldn't be happier with him. He can be very loud so I hope you aren't looking for a nice quiet bird lol. Looking forward to seeing your new friend. You already have a very pretty flock.

Hey Tom, when you going to get your post count up enough to PM members??

Working on that now. Might take a while as I don't do much small talk but I do hope to become more active. Just from hanging out here for the last couple of weeks, I have gone from wanting a SC to thinking maybe a IRN might be a better fit for me. My 89 y/o mother lives in the house with me and the noise of a SC might be to much. So, I'm shopping IRNs. Looks like there may be a good breeder or two in the Sarasota area. If anyone has a lead for me to follow up on in the Sarasota/Tampa area, let me know. And as always, thanks.....Tom

Yeah, you need to go to the bird fair at plant City on sunday. There'll be hundreds of IRNs there of every color you can think of. Let's see if i can find a link.

Hey Tom, saw a blue IRN at a local rescue this AM. It's about 20 minutes north of you ,near Palmetto. You going to that bird fair on Sunday? I'll be there at 9am. Lots of IRNs there for cheap.

Hey Tom

Welcome to the forum. i had a beautiful red factor male canary, named Skiddle. He was so much fun. When he was out, he was free to fly around. He loved Stevie Ray Vaughns steel guitar and Led Zeppelin. i was so sad when he died. Actually i was devastated. i would wake up to his beautiful singing, and I loved watching him take his daily bath. Now I have two ingredible sweet, but bratty birds. A Senegal named Rio, and parrotlet named Kiwi. I am sad Skiddle is gone, but so happy that I didnt give up on bird ownership.
