Expectant father

Hi all, in about three weeks I'll be welcoming home a baby Green Cheek Conure. Not dna'd yet so not sure if boy or girl, but I've already named him/her "Quito" (pronounced KeeToe). I've been lurking about here for a week or so mining for info, and finally got around to signing up yesterday. Just thought I'd say "Hi"! I've attached a photo of the little feller, if I did it right!

Hi and welcome Nate!

What a cute chick Quito is! You'll be completely engrossed with him/her the second they come home. Thanks for sharing the pic.

Welcome to the Birdboard!!

Your new baby is adorable, glad you "jumped' on in here.

Quito will have you wrapped around his little foot in no time (if not already) Nate.

Enjoy your Birdboard

Welcome to Birdboard, Nate. Quito is very cute! You'll have some very fun times with your little faby. (That's feathered baby...one of the many words/abbreviations you'll soon learn in the "bird world" lol)

Thanks everybody! Since the breeder lives about 350 miles from here, I haven't even had the chance to see her/him in person yet. Tried to pick a name that was different, somewhat unisex, and would reflect the central/south american roots of the species. Well yeah, I was going for cute too!

Little tyke doesn't know it yet, but he's gonna have a ball! The cage is all set up, complete with toys. It has a play top, but there's also a play gym on the way. My largest apprehension at this point is that the nearest, in fact only avian vet I've been able to locate in the whole state of Maine is four and a half hours away. Got a feeling I'm gonna get very well read on first aid, health issues, and wing clipping.
