-BUTTERNUT- female TYS GCC Hatched in late Jan. 2016 and came home March 14, 2016
Yeah Right! Thats like saying "Im going to stop trying to steal everything you touch"

That's not likely to happen! *facepalm* I had no idea conures could be so bossy. No one warned me about that possible trait! Haha! ^-^

"Shrunken macaw." Same behaviors, smaller scale.

Is THAT whats up with Pumpkin? Haha he is crazy bossy, he gets into these little birdy, BIG ATTITUDE moods!

That's either an extraordinarily well-behaved bird, or you're shopping for a new keyboard as I type this. Hahaha!

Wow, look at that! I saw that almost the minute I started eating my own pho!

But on another note, you were able to bring your parrot into a restaurant!? I'm impressed :eek:

They let you bring your bird into a restaurant? Wow.

Yes! You'd be surprised how many places you could take a small, mild mannered parrot like Birdy. He's very quiet and even better behaved then some of the customers! :p

Pho is Birdy's favorite food right now! At first he couldn't work out how to pick up anything out of a hot bowl of soup and he would drop the food and shake his head in frustration. :mad:
But now he is very calm and methodical about selecting the right noodle that isn't too hot - even waiting a few minutes by chewing on a bean shoot as he waits for the soup to cool down! :cool:

Does he get a whole bowl of soup for himself, or is he eating out of a person's bowl?

Britta will put her toys away when finished playing with them this year.

(No, she will take them out and toss them when finished. Then laugh about it like a baby in a high chair!:D)

I'm going to have to try tag Gizmo along on my ramen runs now!

And what a clever little guy you have, It just shows the amazing intelligence parrots have!

I dont think ramen noodles are a good idea for birds, they really arent a good idea for us, there is ALOT of MSG in them

Oh right, thanks for clearing that up :)
Surely real noodles are healthier, right? I can't stand ramen noodles, they're so rubbery and makes me feel really weird ...

Real pasta is healthier and you can get even healthier by using whole wheat or whole grain pastas. You can even get vegetable "spririlizers" that make veggies look like pasta.
