Hello from Calgary, Alberta

[Sue13]

Hi, my name is Susanne and I am from Calgary, Alberta (stepmom to Xavier).

In early January, our family adopted two "second-hand" CAGs: Fred - approx. 10 year old male and Palmer (formerly Cecelia) - 3 year old male. The two were supposed to be a male & female. However, even before we got the DNA results, we figured that we had two males as the two are not overly fond of each other. I think "tolerate" would be the proper word.

It's been a lot of fun (and sometimes frustrating) getting to know the two. Even though we've had them for 6 weeks now, they are continuing to getting friendlier and less scared every day. It is amazing how long it takes a grown CAG to become accustomed to a new home.

Nice to have you here!

I am having the same experience, but with two macaws. They are old, second hand birds. Everyday you can see that they are getting more friendly and less scared.
