I am a future Hahns owner!!
I have a deposit on a Hahns chick with a local breeder. They are only about 4-5 weeks old now, and we'll be visiting them for the first time this coming weekend. I plan on as many visits as I can manage (the breeder is about an hour's drive away) until he's weaned and ready to come home.
His (or her) tentative name is Beaker.
I also have a Cockatiel that I've had for 18 years (C.J., Ceej for short)...he is quite cage territorial and doesn't like to come out, but will whistle and kiss you through the cage bars as long as you'll stand there. :) ...And an extremely sweet and cuddly very young Cockatiel (Sam) that we have just had a month or so. Sam just wants to be on a person at all times (preferably having his head skritched) and spends very little time in his cage.
I'm 36 years old, but I grew up in a house with many big birds...two Amazons, a Blue & Gold, a Moluccan, and Paco the Cockatiel, who I got when I was about 10 years old and who recently passed away at the ripe old age of 26.
So I know what to expect!
I've always loved birds, and I can't wait for Beaker to come home!!
