Hiya!
I have just posted this in the main discussion area:
How secure are shower perches?
But I also want to share my excitement in the Eclectus group, of finally having Berkeley home with us. He is so incredibly beautiful.

Congratulations on your new fid!

Congratulations! What subspecies of Eclectus is he? How old is he? I'm so excited for you! Pictures, pictures, pictures! :)

congrats. BUT, Where are the pics? That is very selfish of you telling us how beautiful he is then not show us.

[MusicalFeathers]

I agree....we want pics of your beautiful boy! Congrats!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! but def have to put up pics lol and yes what subspecies is he??

[Windinherhair]

LOL...sorry, I'll get the pics posted tomorrow.
He's a Solomon Islands Eclectus and just over 15 weeks old.
This afternoon, my daughter was doing her homework with a whiteboard pen. He loved the squeaky noise and started to chat back!
It really is such a delight to have a bird back in the house. You may remember my post a few months ago telling of how a fox frightened our conures to death.
I think, once you've had birds, you can't be without them.
Thanks for all the well-wishes.

I use a shower curtain rod that tightens when you twist it. I put it in the center of the show and tighten it. I also put electrical tape on the rod to make it less slippery. If you want to see a video of how it works go to YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. and search for cf1ny. I have a video up of Kiwi in the shower. He loves to shower and can easily move in and out of the spray.

Still no pictures? Just kidding, but SIs are beautiful! Good luck with him.

Kiwi is beautiful. I guess maybe most Ekkies have the same kinda voice because he sounds just like my Turtle!
