Will it be Mishka or Misha

[antoinette]

It's over 24 hours since Mishka was given the news

Thatwas a

Steven could not believe the way HE was carrying, saying since HE found out HE is a boy He has become naughty


HE is acting like a typical boy seriously, on HIS playpen

HE is suddenly wild and so loud

Flapping HIS wings wildly and growling


And I thought is was tough bringing up a girl

​

Please give me strength

​

I am enjoying every single second
With my little boy

​

its strange cos ever since the vet said beau is most likely a girl she's been acting differently too. i've been calling her HER and SHE and GIRL and theres been no more chewing furniture and climbing the curtains. she's been really quiet and really really well behaved.... more ladylike!! weird x

Well I guess our roles have changed now, you know what i am going through visa versa.

Mishka reckons HE now wears the pants in the house

Congrats Ant! A boy, how exciting for you

When he acts naughty you can't blame him. No more sugar and spice and everything nice.....just Snips, snails and puppydog tails! hehehe (I hope you heard that poem before or this post will sound verrrrry strange!) lol

Mishka knows that SHE is actually a HE.
I keep calling him HER and Mishka keeps telling ME Mishka is a boy

Mishka is showing he is happy, watch how he kisses the bars

OMG they are so intelligent

Misha and Mishka are both diminutive forms of Mikhail (the Slavic form of Michael). Misha is the common form, while Mishka is an endearing form. Eg, friends of Mikhail Gorbachev might call him Misha, but only his mother or wife might call him Mishka.

Mishka also means little bear. Cf the mascot of the 1980 Olympics and the chocolate candies of the same name.

Name the bird Mikhail, then you can call him either.
