Reta ... Ugh... birds need care even when you are sick as you know, I have many times over had to do the aviary birds and even hand feed babies when I have been really sick. A few times where it can take me about an hour to feed the aviary birds might take me several hours to complete when I am bad enough.
Tina - I doubt very seriously if my Coral Bills are going anywhere for a while, no one at this time with things so down in the economy is going to buy about $8,000. worth of CB's. Didn't you say you would like to buy 5 pairs??
Oh wow... I know the MAP thing is kind of hard I know to get approved/certified, I just do not have the set up they want... and if I was, I'd probably have to triple pay a vet to come here as I am like over 50 miles from either avian vet I use, and that is even if they do such a thing for MAP. I'm not worried, as I am not even going to try for it.
