She is GORGEOUS! Wow! I can't say I'm jealous, got my hands full already, but sure am HAPPY!!, for you!! I'm wondering how you transport her? Do you have a specially made travel cage? With them being so long, (with that tail), I'm curious...

She sounds like a love. How is Yoshi doing with all this?

My Yoshi Boy is doing fine Thank you for asking
He gets more attention then before I think because i feel bad , lolol.
And I think he is smart enough to play that card for a long , long time , lol.
My husband told me the other day that Yoshi and I are attached at the hip
He laughs because whenever I take Yoshi out he has to slink under my neck and do all his kissing and stuff first , then he's ready for anything.
You know how a cat likes to rub its head , neck and back under your neck ?
Well , picture a Goffin doing the same thing , lolol.
Rosie is now flying well enough to go on short excursions from the cage.
She does a small 180 and makes it back to the cage fine That is a HUGE accomplishment since she had no feathers when i brought her home !
She is a shredder and a plucker , but now with all the attention and loving she gets , she so far has stopped both bad habits Im very proud of Rosie.

I think she watched Yoshi for long enough and finally got the courage up to try flying again. The poor thing was so scared of falling , she didn't want to be picked up at all. I used to just let her be and she gained trust in us .
Anyway , I have worked out a nice schedule so i get all my chores done , have time for the goats , they need brushing and attention too
Then of course the collies , they need work and training. Once that is done , I usually have lessons , depending on them , Im done for the day.
Then its bird time But I did forget to mention that the birds come out for breakfast and their normal "greet the day" routine , lol.
Stella , for now , has been fairly quiet , unless she hears me calling for one of the dogs , she chimes in as well. I swear her first word will be Fiona , the dog I always have to call for a few times :roll eyes:

Well , thats my life My animals I couldn't think of a better place to be

Holy Crap !!! i forgot today was Stella's hatch date !!!!!!!!
Awwww , shoot !! But i did buy her a toy today anyway , I guess it should count towards her hatchway , lol. Might as well be all their hatchdays since they all got toys , lolol.
My baby is one year old today !! Hooray for Stelly Belly
Happy Hatchday my baby girl Stella !

Forgot to answer the carrier part , sorry :/
I used a large dog crate and put perches in it. If I had bought one for her , it would have been the same thing , and i have a lot of those , lol.
There are real nice birdy carriers , I have on for Yoshi , but she is so big and I doubt there is anything better then what i have set up for her. She is comfortable in it , goes right in it , no problem
When we went to the vet , she had a great time in the car , lol.
She loves car rides , at least it seems like it She looks out at all the traffic , and was playing with her toys too , so it doesn't seem like it stresses her any , lol.

My friend had a small dog carrier made into a bird carrier for Rosie and she does well in it , goes in voluntarily too.
Yoshi , enjoys it , but I just put him in , I don't ask him to go in , I know if he had a choice , he would decide to stay home

Hi , sorry for not getting back to you sooner
Having a Hyacinth is truly a amazing ride ! She is so gentle and friendly and cuddly , I could go on too , lol.
You need to set boundaries immediately , that is very important. And socialize her a lot too. Let her get to know her flock , my husband takes her out as much as I do , so she has no hesitations towards anybody. But the way her personality is , she wouldn't have any problems there, lolol.
I have her on mostly Zupreen brands and a few other store mixes I picked up when I got her , since she was already eating them.
I would definitely make sure you bring home what your Hyacinth is eating now since you will be slowly changing her over to the brand you chose.
IMO , and just from my experience , I feel the Zupreem is a better brand then the Kaytee , but again this is my personal preference.
Their are other great brands out there as well. Experiment on giving her fruits and veggies of course. I have yet to see Stella eat veggies and try some other things like eggs and blueberries , etc...I know she won't touch it at all if it is the slightest bit cold , so whatever I give her must be at room temp or warmer , lol. I am going to try scrambled egg later and see how that goes over , lol
It works out well if she doesn't eat it though , because I know my TOOs will eat
what she leaves , lol. I tried taking away some of her other foods just for that moment so maybe that would entice her to check out whats in the bowl I give her. Well , she went over to the bowl , looked in it and ran away ,lolo.
Patience , patience , patience is what you will need as well
Good luck with your HY and let us know how she's doing
PICTURES ARE DEMANDED HERE Please ?

I just realized that what I owe in Student Loans (and still WITHOUT my degree ) I could buy a Hy and cage with.

so sad.
