It's Raven :D! He's 2 today. I tried to get a video of him talking, but he's not in a very chatty mood right now.

I at least wanted to get a good pic, but I guess he wasn't in the mood for that either... This is what we have for now... LOL, better pics (and maybe vid) later :)!

Happy Birthday! :10: hope you have a wonderful day Raven :)


BTW: that is the exact same cage I have for Doobie! Do you have problems with the stand wheels? Do you know I can find a replacement stand? Sorry, just excited to see the same cage as Doobs :D

Thanks :)!

MyFlock: Raven's cage is this one King's Cages - Avian and Pet Bird Cages, Supplies, Food, Toys, Perches, Aviaries, Pluck No More It doesn't have a stand.. if it did, I wouldn't be taking the cage off since it's 120 lbs :p

Oh bummer, It looks just like mine so I thought it was the same one. I need to get a replacement stand for it because one of the wheels keep popping off :(

Do you know what brand it is? If it doesn't say, you can ask what brand from where you bought it? Then contact the manufacturer. Bummer, that sounds like a pain, hope you can get a new one!

Here's the birthday boy :D relaxing...



This is his present. He loved the last one of these so much that he worked at it for hours without even stopping to eat lol.

After a bath, Robin thought he'd try a different hairstyle for the special occasion. Swept to the side :)

Happy Birthday, Raven!!! I cracked up laughing at his first (buttshot) photo! Second set is sooooo much better, even though I do dig his bright red rear! :D

Happy Hatch Day! Wow, she is beautiful. So dark!

Thanks :)! Raven is a boy ;)... The vet and staff calls him 'she' also, then he saw on an x-ray he had enlarged testicles, which reminded him of his gender LOL.

He isn't sexually mature yet, but Pionus can act the part several years before they can breed. He is awful right now, he has earned the name Mr. Hormone with me.

I...can't....breathe! ROFLMAO so bad right this moment!

Raven, you are busted! Julie, your description SO reminds me of a teenage BOY who...who....who's began feeling his 'oats'.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAVEN!!! I hope you are having an amazing second birthday, you beautiful boy, and if I know your mom, that's exactly what you're doing.

I love the photos Julie! Nice of handsome Robin to dress for the occasion.

Raven says thank you :D

Wendy you crack me up! Yep it's true, that is him :18:! He is consistently a sweet boy with Don, but 99% of the time Mr. Hormone with me haha, his threat posture is not very becoming of him at all (like an Amazon display, and he makes an ugly face lol)... He has a "relationship" with Griffin and Don, and I'm just the pesty intruder... although I'm only his "real" owner who feeds him and takes care of his well being!

Poor Julie! Smack me, but I'm still giggling at Wendy's remarks about Raven's teenage tendencies. She's right about his cute red-feathered butt too.

I keep hoping Raven will come around and realize he should treat you better. He's only two, still plenty of time for a change of heart.

I was hoping to get video of Raven talking. He's usually pretty funny, but he just didn't want to today. So here are some last pics :). He's starting to molt, but you can't tell from this angle.

Thanks for looking! :)
