Hiya

Hi, my name is Jeff and I'm new to the boards. I will be bringing home my weaned Hahn's macaw as soon as it's cage arrives( supposed to be tomorrow). I am getting very antsy. I haven't decided on a name yet. I've visited it as often as possible but want to get to know it a little better before I pick out a name. I just found this board yesterday and have been very impressed with the sense of community that is apparent from reading many posts.

I look forward to sharing lots of stories and pictures in the future.

Glad to be here,
Jeff and TBD

Jeff I would love to see some pictures of your new baby when it comes home!

Let us know what you decide for a name. I love the way those Hahns Macaws look. So adorable!

What size cage did you get? Do you have lots of toys? What will you be feeding your new baby?

Nancy (The Outlaw) is a great person to get Macaw advice from, she loves em!

Ok, I uploaded an avatar of the most recent pic I have of my little bundle of feathers. I have some pics from before it got feathers 'til now. I'll get them posted soon. I'll have to look up the dimensions of the cage. It's decent sized but not the "mansion" I have in mind. I'll probably upgrade in the near future.

For food, I'm leading towards Zupreem, probably natural. I have tons of birdy recipes that I've collected since I decided to get it( I need to get this poor thing sexed or just decide to call it a him or her LOL). I personally love sweet potatoes so it will get a lot of those and all kinds of other fresh veggies and fruits, pasta etc. etc. etc. Luckily, the breeder trains them to drink from a water bottle. I always hated those messy water dishes.

I have lots of toys and perches so far but will surely stock up at the local bird show in a few weeks. I need to get more "foot toys". I haven't found a "boing" yet. I will probably have to order online. I don't have a gym yet ( haven't decided whether to attempt to make one or just break down and buy one.)

I'll be sure to let you know the name as soon as it hits me, LOL. Thanks for the welcome.

Jeff
