Meet winston

Post by tam » Sat Mar 05, 2016 11:34 pm

This is Winston. I think or maybe Winnie ,we will have dna testing done soon but I think our conure is a boy and he is a wonderful little guy. He's about 7 months old and a cuddle bug . I have a question does anyone know of any bird stores (on-line) that I could buy light bulbs and other bird toys, vitamins and etc....thanks. Tam

Congratulations.

He has a vet appt. Saturday, check -up and a DNA testing too. He has been sneezing that's my primary reason . Want to make sure he's in good health

Good luck with Winston's Vet appt. I hope all goes well for our little fella.

I was just loved by a Sun Conure, at a Pet Land the other day .
This bird , was incredibly gentle and sweet. He preened my face, my eye brows, and my eyelashes with the gentlest touch , then snuggled into my hair.

It was very tempting, but the $1,300.00 price tag cured my temptation very quickly.

Elana, yes I can understand being tempted. I would have a house full of birds if my husband gave me the green light
