I wish I got to do all my school work at home! Boooo! No, it'd be a really bad idea if I did. I get distracted by the birds too easily. I have to leave them in the bedroom and go to the opposite side of the house to do any kind of school work. I just had to write a huge paper which required me to read very old books that the birds wanted to shred so badly. Anything paper, important, or school related has to be kept out of reach of them. I leave my guys home the majority of most days during the week they get their loving before I leave for class and when I come home before I have to go to work.

One day I'll have a macaw I just have to finish school, get a "grown up" job, and move out of my parents house. If I was on my own I totally would have one!

 

[tab_xo]

thanks macaw guy, will check out video later

haha awww! all my work is on the computer so fargo cant eat it
do they keep themselves entertained until you get home?

thats good.. it will definitely be worth the wait

 

[tab_xo]

oh my god! roscoe is adorable he has the cutest voice ever !

 

[JerseyWendy]

YAY! So glad to hear Fargo's vet visit was a breeze. What a good boy!! And you are such a good mum to him.

The bird store customcasket is talking about is the one I just went to yesterday to pick up a couple of nuts. 45 minutes from my house as well.

Tab, that store has SO many Macaw babies at the moment - it's incredible. AND Amazon babies. And so many other species as well.

Nah, stay put Tab. But feel free to come and visit ANY time.

They currently have tons of baby Blue & Golds, 3 young Green Wings, a pair of Buffons, some Military, several hybrid babies (Catalinas I believe) and some Mini Macaws.

 

[tab_xo]

haha mmm i think the weather wouldnt be as hot in america though

omg! that is awesome.. do you get to pat them ?
and im guessing they have thousands of awesome toys and accessories for them ?

 

[JerseyWendy]

Yes, you get to pat, play and interact with them. And yes, they do actually have thousands of different toys. And HEFTY price tags to go with them.

 

[tab_xo]

*dies of jealousy*

ohh i think anything that has 'bird' on the label has a hefty price tag haha

 

[MacawGuy]

Every type of macaws are here.
