Hatch Date Qu...

In April, I brought home our ringneck, Henry.
He was 'approximately 8 months' then.
For those who don't know the exact hatch dates of your parrots, how do you celebrate birthdays / keep track of age?
Thanks!

I have decided to have happy home day and celebrate the day I got them.

Deduct 8 months from April, then pick a day - any day around then, and that will be Henry's hatchdate from now on. Doesn't really matter if you're off a week or a month or so.

Kyo was born in January, so I make January 1st her hatch day

I don't know the exact hatch dates for any of my birds. We celebrate Gotcha' Days instead.

I like the idea of celebrating Gotcha/Coming Home days!

Thanks Everyone
I think I need to start keeping a notebook for all these little bits and pieces.
