Hello everyone! I am new(ish) to parronthood and to parrotforums. I am a 25 year old grad student at University of Alaska Fairbanks studying volcanology. I just adopted a new fid four days ago from a family that was moving to Florida (much better place for a parrot than Alaska), but couldn't keep her. She's a green cheek, her name is Mochi, and she is approximately 2 years old. I say 'she' but don't know for sure. Her first avian vet appointment is next Thursday and, among other things, we will DNA sex her to confirm or deny. I raised cockatiels for several years when I was younger, and I lived with roommates for a couple years that had 2 green cheeks, a ring neck, and an African grey so I'm decently familiar with birbs. That being said there is a TON I do not know, so I'm looking forward to learning form all of y'all so I can give my sweet little baby a great life. Outside of being into birds, I LOVE volcanoes and geology!! I'm always down to talk science and nerd out about cool rocks! I hope I'm able to contribute something to the community, and I look forward to chatting with everyone.
