Hi From UK!

Hi There,

Just found this website on a google search so thought i'd join and say hi

Im from Gloucerstershire in the UK and have been keeping parrots for about 8 or 9 years. I used to do a lot of rescue work before i got a full time job so have had everything from budgies to greys to cockatoos to macaws I currently only have a pair of tiels of my own (Sweet Pea and James!) but have a black capped conure being hand reared now who will be coming home in about 3 weeks. And im also waiting for my new Black Capped Lory baby to be laid and hatch I seem to have a thing for black capped birdies at the moment

I do also own a blue throated conure called Kai, though he doesnt live with me. Some friends had him for a few months while i was moving house (had to move into a rented place for a while with a strict "no pets policy"!!) and he bonded so much with their little girl that i couldnt take him back

Anyway, i do go on a bit, but look forward to chatting parrots with everyone soon

Jess

Hi there! Welcome.

You seem to have loads of experience! I was just adopted by Shakti (Alexandrine Ring Neck) on Sunday and she is doing so very well. Of course it took a couple of bites and once she knew I was unaffected by it, she became very sweet.

My husband is English, in fact, we spent Christmas and New Year in London!
