My name is Kris...

Hello everyone! I'm new to BB and I just wanted to introduce myself.
I live in the Washington DC area, I have a collie mix named Bailey and we will be joined by a new baby CAG in a couple of weeks. We couldn't be more excited!!!

I've had lovebirds and keets before, but this is my first parrot. The breeder has been WONDERFUL with advice and getting me set up. But I'm SURE you all have wonderful advice to share with all of your experiences...and I'm WIDE OPEN TO IT!

Anything you can tell me/warn me of/share is appreciated!

Thanks! - Kris

Welcome to BirdBoard. I'm sure you'll like it here, and we'll like seeing pix *hint hint*!

The only warning I can think of... Parrots: You can't have just one :-).

I can't agree with you more Irish!

Welcome to the wonderful world of being owned by a parrot! Don't be a stranger, and don't hesitate to ask questions. A CAG was my first bird. I'm surprised that she survived to be honest with you. I knew nothing absolutely nothing. Now look what I've gotten myself into.

I'm guilty of this!!!

Welcome to BB, and congrats on the new addition. I've just added a CAG to my family as well. And looking at your pictures, it seems we may have gotten our babies from the same place. That's Jane's house, right??!! If so, you could not have picked a better person. My Tristan is such a wonderful baby. Jane raises exceptional babies. Enjoy your baby. You are in for the ride of a life time!!! Let us know if you need any help!!!
