Okay, so I just realized, OH MY GOSH! It seems like not so long ago it was June 2013 and I got my precious little baby bird. He was born on April 16, 2013 so on the 16th he will be 9 months old! Can you imagine that, in 3 months and 14 days my little baby will be an adult at 12 months or a year and molt in Spring! Time goes by so fast with my little baby bird, or should I call him a teenager now? XD! When April comes by I'm gonna make some, little, special, bird safe cupcakes or pies so my mother's Eclectus Zephyr, my bro's GCC Blaze and my very own little Sun can celebrate and eat! Well that's the end of this update, for now, so you know I still am alive. Soon I will get some pictures of my beloved teen Loki.
:orange::D

So here is the week before we got him.

Just wait until you see how bright his feathers will be after his first molt. He'll look like a completely different bird, stunningly beautiful.

You are both adorable! My little Sundance was born in April too, and will be 1 year old on April 12! The time really does go by fast. It seems like just yesterday I was telling hubby that I wanted another bird, and now I have 2!

Loki is gorgeous, I look forward to see lots more pics:)

@James: I know, they are supposed to look gorgeous!
@Jersey:Thanks!
@TheKarens: Yes, he is quite the handsome little guy.
@Mikey: Aww, poor little girl, I'm glad she is fine now though. Thanks for the compliment on Loki!
@Aga: That's cute, birds will forever be my favorite animal.

I will make sure Loki hears of the compliments, I will also make sure to post more pictures.

BIRDS WILL RULE THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!(And their owners!!!! XD!) (And Dogs too! -R trolll!)(My friend.)

They do grow fast:) I can't wait until Oliver is that age... But I'm sucking up every moment of his tiny alien stage.

Loki is beautiful!

Your Loki is beautiful! What a lovely pair you guys make! Adorable!!!!



Here is my Razzbin and how she has changed, she will be a year at the end of the month. Top and bottom are the old photos, sides are the new recent ones. She almost does look like the same bird!

@ConureAZ: Haha, tiny alien stage! Thank you though for the compliment on Loki!
@Kissed: Oh thank you, looks like she used to be quite the trouble maker! XD!
@Tessie: I will make sure to keep them, how happy my grandkid's will be to see my little boy! (Also any times I get a picture of him doing something bad! :)

You are both very pretty! Did you name yours after avengers Loki too? I know the two I raised grew up super fast and they are over 3 years old now...so hard to believe! It also means I'm almost done college since they were born the week before I started and thats even harder to process lol

@Riddick: No, I was just thinking for names. (started a week before a got him, the day I met him! XD! I was set!) Sun Conures are mischievous right? You got that, he always tries to eat stuff such as my Pandora bracelet, he also made a small tear in it! I have a bracelet from Kartchner Cavern's, he tries to eat it! Raindbow looms bracelets I got from my aunt? He tries to eat them! Loki, the god of mischief, it fits!

Yeah, well, just think about how your parents feel... your bird isn't the only one growing and changing right now. Look in the mirror as you say this! :D

You two can grow up together!

Somewhere, I've got a picture of my daughter, with my sun conure and my red lored amazon, when she was FIVE! She's now a senior in high school!

Blink and you might miss something...

Yeah, their little girl is growing up. They know that inside I'm always their daughter though, and at some point we must all grow up.

Yeah, Loki might mature faster but I'm always going to be older, and bigger. Sorry little man.

Woah, time flies by fast. Did she like to show them to her friends? At my first sleepover having Loki, we spent most of the time cuddling with him!

When she was your age, I did parrot rescue. I HAD 11 BIRDS... everything from macaws, to cockatoos, to CAGS, to conures... Ah, yes, the sleepover days... seems like she had one just about every weekend when she was your age.

Why do they call them sleepovers when nobody shuts up all night?! :32:

Just don't be in a hurry to grow up... enjoy it while you can.

what a beautiful bird!
I would love to see how she's changed.
Is there a more recent pic now 6 months later? :)

Birdman: Wow, birds rock. It's a shame people can be so cruel. Yeah, the longest one I woke up at 6:30, my friend comes over at noon, we stay up till 3:00 in the morning, at 6 giant dogs jump on us.

MrsKay: The most recent picture I've posted was taken a few days ago to update my profile picture. Loki is fully molted into his true colors now.
