Hi everyone! My name is Dominique. I am new (obviously) and am owned by two wonderful parrots:
Harley, a Blue and Gold Macaw. We are almost positive she is a female. She is a year and a half old and everyone loves her! She is a total sweetheart and although she is wearly of new people, she LOVES people and loves to be with you. She is a doll baby! Harley and I had a rocky start. I wanted a slightly smaller bird (SI eclectus) but, my dad had a B&G and fell in lvoe with Harley. Long story short, I hand fed her and weaned her. She was 'passed off' to my brother who, like most brothers are, was too imature to know how to take care of a bird. My mom was ready to sell her, as was everyone else. But then a little voice (I have no idea who's, but it came from my mouth) said "I will, let me. Don't sell her, let me take care of her". I did, and hae never regretted it, not one day. She is the sweetest, quietest, smallest blue and gold I have ever seen, and I adore her! She will let me do anything- roll her over on her back (her favorite game) and hold her like a baby. You name it, she lets me do it. She is so trusting of me, it is the kind of thing that makes you shed a tear :o

Echo is a little different. I was searching on craigslist and someone had a CAG for adoption. It said he wasn't fond of kids, but I emailed her anyways. Over the next week, I learned more of this 'grayburd' and ame to visit. We hit it off. After only a week, I was able to give him scritches and rub him- something the old owner couldn't do. I love him and I have fallen in love, again! I had been saving so hard for a female eclectus I have had my eyes on since November, and am still saving, but Echo was worth every penny!

Well, that's just about it!
 
Hi and Welcome to Parrot Forums, I hope you have a great time with us, We sure do have fun here and have got a great bunch of people, Echo and Harley are just adorable so beautiful.

I have a Harley here too, but the size difference is considerable, my Harley is a little Bourke :D So maybe the size of your Harley's beak :eek: :D

How do Echo and Harley get on with each other? I look forward to seeing lots more pics of your babies, and hearing all about you all. If you need any help with the site just ask and we will do our best to help you out.
 
Welcome to the Parrot Forums. Your birds are beautiful!!! To keep on everyone's good side you must post lots of pictures!!!! Hope to see some soon.
 
Welcome I think I remember you from bird channel this place is so much nicer!
 
I am not going to lie here, you have my two dream birds ... don't get me wrong, I love our little Ham to death, but those are my two dream birds ... So, Hamlet and I welcome you with open wings, er ... arms rather ...

Welcome to the forum! I am Hamlet's mommy and come on every once in a while to ask questions and poke fun at Tex :) Your birds are very pretty and it sounds like they have great personalities. Tex will probably be asking you all kind of questions because he can't wait until our flock includes those kinds of birds!
 
Thanks for the warm welcome! Oh, don't get me started on pictures! I think I am going to need another camera, I use it so often! This place seems a lot nicer, and not as dull as Bird Channel! Thanks again, I will be sure to post LOTS of pictures!!!
 
Welcome:) The B&G and CAG are my dream birds too and Im savin up...with the help of possibly breeding my filly Echo to raise up money so we will see how that goes. Hey Does this mean Im on everyones bad side cus I dont post lots of pics lol:p I just havent got the time here lately to come on here and post nething as I have track and lots of other stuff going. But have fun at the forums this is an awsome site, everybody is so nice and helpful. How old are u?
 
I'm 14 :)

Echo and Harley are... not 'good' friends, but they seem to get along. Echo is always getting out on Harley's cage, and Harley doesn't seem to care. Yesterday, she said "ECHO!" then, right after that "Out, out OUT" over and over. Finally, I went to go see, and sure enough, there was Echo, sitting on her seed guard. Harley knows both Echo and out (I say it to the dogs all the time) but never thought she would put two and two together!

Two things I should warn ya'll of:
I was born 'n raised in the South, so I use 'yall' a lot!
And, I love to brag about my birds, so beware!!!
 
Thats awsome...im 15 goin on 16 in Dec:D , cant wait to get my license. Neway we love to hear bout ur birds so brag it all lol:)
 
Hey MLB nice to see ya, and yes we need more pics from you, :D but we forgive ya, anyway its nice to see ya, just come on when you can, and tell us how you and Sadie are doing. :D

Dominique you brag away, we all love it. I know I can listen all day to someone talking about their birds and how they are doing. Keep using that camera gal, we love pics here. :D
 
Welcome Dominique!

I love that pic. of Harley doing the wave. Sisqo does it too, but always at the most inconvenient times (a.k.a. when I can't find my camera)

A B&G and a CAG are the two birds that I know I will definitely have in the future. The boyfriend wants the CAG and I want a B&G, so in about 8 years, maybe that will happen! Of course any other birds are welcome additions also!
 
I use ya'll alot too around here it's not slang just another word in the vocabulary!
