Oh ok. I thought it was just the Canary.
We are doing ok over here, thanks. Babies growing, eggs here there and everywhere. I could start an egg business, lol. Expecting a lovely baby budgie (who is not even an egg yet) pure white, with just a hint of ice blue on the lower belly and under tail. I will get him very young, to hand feed and hand tame. I want to teach him to talk. What an adventure that will be.

How are you Brian? School, friends, birds :-D? Is everyting going along well in your world?
Hope you have a really good weekend.

lovezebs I am doing great! Birds are great, school is good but challenging, and friends are good.

Speaking of my friends and school, you wouldn't believe what kind of class trip I am going on!

We are going to Boston for 3 days 2 nights!! It's going to be so much fun. I am rooming with my buddies, I'm so excited. And it's on Halloween weekend, so maybe the city will be themed for the Holiday. Muwahahahahahahahahahahahhahah. Lol.

My social studies teacher takes all her classes. Obviously it comes with a price (like everything) ,but its going to be TOTALLY Worth it.

I helped pay for some of it using some confirmation money. I also treated myself to buying myself a kindle fire tablet. It comes on Tuesday. So overall, I'm doing great. :D :mrgreen:

Hey Brian.
You lucky kid! That sounds like an awesome weekend. Watch out for those Bostonian ghouls and goblins. Too bad you can't take the Socie boys with you. Can you imagine one of them starting to do the pooffy song in the middle of the night on Halloween. Your buds would probably go screaming into the night. "Did you hear that?"
"Hear what?"
"That! What the heck is that?????? :shock: :shock: :shock:

LOL

I am starting this thread for anyone who wants to just talk and share about whatever, so we can avoid posting the chit chat in someone's post on a certain topic. Thanks everyone! :mrgreen:

Hmm. I'm not sure I know. What is the next step in the life of a finch? After they molt, they .....I'd guess laying eggs? I can' t remember the order. Try to find someone who has more posts, but not too much more than yours and see what their status is. :wink:

I just looked myself and saw that Dante is at "preening" and I think that is next after you reach "molting,". :-?

delray --- Aw, I'm jealous! I'm from Boston (just north, actually).

I moved to Florida a few years ago, but I spent my first 27 years in Boston and it will probably always be "home".

Are you going to Salem? It's about a 40 min drive north, but it's **incredible** on Halloween!
