I love 'tiels! When I lived in Ohio many years ago worked in an all avian vet clinic and had a whole basement full of rescue birds. Had to find homes for all when I moved down south. Anything from finches to my big Mealy Amazon. Miss the birds,but not the mess!

That’s good!! Guess I just assumed most places down there had lots of snakes and bugs but that’s good if some have less :)



Yeah, I don’t think I would like that very much aha winters might not be so bad, I might freeze my buns off any further north than MA, but I think I would probably roast or melt in the summer down south aha absolutely hateeee heat and humidity and also heat makes my problems worse, like I tend to get dehydrated and migraines really easily in summer, even here, and weak or whatever, and also have asthma. But that said, I don’t like having the heat on or fires because the dry air dries my eyes out. Don’t really usually get a headache from it but feels weird. Maybe there is a way to make fire and heat bother me less.

i think you would be better off staying in your home state, others might not agree with you and problems, you know how you feel there

Ehh, that’s a good point but I don’t really like Massachusetts anymore lol

Is Idaho hot? For some reason my brother seems to think it is hotter than here in summer. He says it is both hotter and colder than here, really hot in the summer and really cold and snowy in the winter, even moreso than here or New Hampshire, but I had not heard of Idaho being hot???

Isn't Sun Valley ski resort in Idaho?
 
KD, the only really viable way to choose a location is to live there for a time. I pretty much left home when I was 18, lived all over the world and didn't find my final place until 40 years after leaving home. Had entire states with Red X's through them and we were certain of where we did not want to be. But that didn't get us any closer to where we wanted to be.

I’m not sure. I think there are probably several. I think the state is hugely varied and I think there are some parts with plains so maybe the plains/desert parts get hot? But I would think the northern part or closer to the mountains and water wouldn’t be too hot.

That is a good point! Hadn’t really thought of that. Can do lots of research online and think a place sounds good or bad but don’t really know until you live there I suppose. And even one that sounds good online, one might end up hating after living there. So you do make a good point. And wow you sure moved around a lot! I hate moving so I kind of would like to move as little as possible or like find a place I love and settle there but I guess I won’t know if I love it or hate it until I move out. But I kind of want to stay here at least a little bit longer and save more. I was really hoping to get on a list for a perfect litter of dogs this spring but after looking at all these houses, I’ve decided I would rather save for a house or apartment. I do eventually want a dog but for now I walk and train two and I’ve decided I should wait and see where I move to. Which is unfortunate because the parents literally sound like the perfect dogs for me and I might never find another one exactly like these dogs (and the mother is already 4 so may retire soon) but they are Golden Retrievers so if I move or my parents move even if it’s in a couple years and not immediately, I would probably need to rehome it or else live in a tent no matter how much I say I never ever would (would seriously rather live in a tent or car than rehome any animal but that is unrealistic) and that would not be fair to the dog. And paying for a dog takes away from money I could be saving. So I suppose I should wait. Sadly. Or else get a mini poodle or havanese or something. But I think I am going to say NO DOGS for now. Even though this is truly the PERFECT litter and I really want it (due February 7th so not ready till April). There is time to prepare and save for the dog and we already have a lot of supplies but I am going to say NO and save for one of those bad ass houses instead lol
