I am a 3 month new mama to a 7 yr old CAG, Nova. We acquired him when his previous owners who raised him as a hatchling were splitting up and did not want him in a broken home. I had never had a bird of any kind, less my sister's parakeets. Nova has acclimated soooo well and is now a sweet part of the family. He has 2 fur siblings, a 1 yr old female great dane, Jezebel and a 6 month old mutt brother, Elvis. I look forward to being able to acquire new information to better my mama skills!
