HELP! I have a chick and a question...

[txparamedic]

Yes, I have two greenrump parrotlets. They are the smallest parrotlets. Mine are both female and both are "special needs". One has a paralyzed leg from the breeder letting her band slip down when she was a baby and the other has deformed feet. They don't know they are crippled! The paralyzed one has a big huge attitude, even more than my big macaws! She is funny. Since she isn't really mobile and the other has genetic problems, we don't breed we just enjoy them! They are funny. I have 2 parrotlets, a blue front amazon, a red lored amazon, a blue and gold macaw, a pair of greenwing macaws, 3 chickens, 1 rooster, and an incubator full of showgirl eggs...and one loud chick! They go well with our dogs, cats, and show donkeys...yes, we are our own zoo! I also have 3 daughters 18, 15, and 9. Did I tell you my poor hubby is bald? What a patient guy!

I have 2 that are really working their eggs. When the chick sleeps they are rockin and rollin. When he's awake, he works them over moving and crawling on them. Darn it. Why are they so slow? I am a paramedic, I like things done NOW! Guess I will have to learn some patience...

I'm green with envy. I used to have parrolets and I had a blue front amazon too. My most coveted parrot, though is a moluccan cockatoo. Although, I really like the macaws too.

I'm jealous. sigh.
