I just joined. I have two rehomed birds, Molly a CAG and Joe, SI ekkie. Both are said to be about 2 to 3 years old right now. I have no hatch dates, of course. I had to laugh at the post about male ekkies are the best. I do think that is correct. Joe is such a sweet bird. Molly, not so much but we get along! Thanks for letting me join!
