Jonesy a Goffins 'Too who had to be rehomed :-(
And a Normal Grey Cockatiel named BB who came home with me on 5/20/2016.
...ok,like a few folks here,I decided to make a thread for Amy..This will be her spot in our large "family" here.
So,we went for a ride to the pet store. There were ALOT of people today.
Everyone was coming up to us wanting to see her.
And,as always with new people she gets excited,poofs up,and chatters away.
Seeing how we were there,the young lady who is the head of the birdie section <says she has almost 10 years with them,has a couple conures herself> asked if I wanted Amy groomed.
Amy has just about all her flight clothes on and her nails were getting pointy.
We went into her office,I had amy on her perch stick. All I had to do was turn her perch,to were she was upside down < for some reason se likes that lol>and I cupped her back in my hand,whie Amy held on tight and gnawed at the perch. I extended one arm..it was fully clothed..snip snip..left the 3 first feathers from shoulder down,snipped the rest..ditto with the other side. Amy didn't really protest,just chomped the perch harder.. <better that a finger I guess! >
I started to get aggravated coz way too many people were coming into the girls office,poking their faces in where the girl was working and I could see Amy getting excited and anxious..I said to them BACK OFF PLEASE!
At one point,Amy DID do a pressure bite to the girl.
Then came the nails,Amy on her perch,me grabbing a foot and holding,while the girl trimmed. Amy went for another taste and when I said loudly NO BEAKY AMY...she stopped!:04:
So,she has been groomed..The store is a lot closer to me then her docs office,and I don't need to make it an appointment..and its free...still too many nosey people hanging and watching,making my poor little green girl anxious. BUT all in all,she was awesome as always.
Here is a few pics of the birdie area...the girl with Amy..then we went to Dunkin Donuts..a picture of a young woman with Amy..
