I wouldn't change the name now.

He or she knows that's what you call him/her. It doesn't matter.

Since it's not my bird I won't have any say, but thanks Dopey about finding it under both boys and girls. I'll put that bug in Karen's ear :)

OMG, I want to blow up the pics of her and have my walls papered with them! She is sooo gorgeous!!

I think Zoe will definitely work for either sex. I named my lovies before I realized that Zoe is a boy, but since he has only one eye we call him Governor Zoe:)

I'm not sure the Govenor part will help LOL! I called the shop to see if the results were in and they told me they hadn't checked online lately...I rolled my eyes and asked if they could please check online and was informed that they would try this afternoon. They were unloading a delivery truck at that moment. If I don't hear this afternoon they are going to get my version of "squeaky wheel." ;-)

Fingers crossed!
Sheesh, it would only have taken a minute for them to check.

Excuse me as I go into a corner and melt into a puddle of adoring-mushy-I-want-to-cuddle-Zoe goop... goodness me! And I've been on numbers 3 and 4 ever since Mark discussed BTM's earlier... this has just made me more obsessed. But because I live in Canada, it will probably never come true :(

So I fully expect a shwack load of photos so I can also live vicariously through you and your wife with your ridiculously adorable Zoe! I really don't mind melting into puddles of goop on a continuous basis when it comes to birds as dang adorable as your mush-mac ;)

How exciting!!! I'm glad everything turned our like y'all wanted. :)

Seriously looking into a BTM since there's a few breeders in Texas..
They're quickly rivaling the greater vasa as my dream bird hehe. Maybe in a few years.

Vasa's are interesting. I got to play with a few of those when I was in Cali...

Wouldn't be my dream bird though. I'd definately take a BTM over a Vasa. WAY more personable... WAY MORE!

Oddly enough, when I lived in NorCal, I was cleaning cages, and had my flock and cages outside power washing them...

Oddly enough, one of the "crows" in a tree in my back yard, became interested in my birds, and actually began talking to us. On closer inspection, it was a Vasa...

So I climbed the tree. Unfortunately, when I got about 2/3 of the way to the bird, it spooked the crows, and she flew off with her flock. Well, rare madagascar parrots don't show up in your yard every day. So I made a few phone calls, and it turns out a local breeder had lost one of hers...

Long story short, she brought the mate over to my place in the hopes that the other bird would come back to it. So, I got to play with one...

Yeah it seems most breeders I can find either don't ship or haven't had clutches in a while, so there's a waiting list. They're both beautiful birds though. I have a few years to do research though. In the meantime I'll enjoy reading all about Zoe and swooning over your pictures. :)

Very cool! I've never gotten to meet one in person and I'd really like to... Just because
