Finally, here he is...

Ok, while he hasn't come home yet, he is due to come home in just under 2 weeks (fingers, legs, eyes crossed to save against any bad luck) I thought I would post some pictures the breeder sent me of him (at least I think the pictures are of him). He is the green little chicken.
Here;s hopeing that nothing goes wrong this time and that by christmas I finally have a Quaker parrot of my own.

What does Meroki mean?

A gorgeous baby who will no doubt have a wonderful life with you. Too bad I live in a state that has made it illegal to own Quaker Parrots...

Best wishes to you!

I feel your pain Eliza. I had 3 quakers at the time they outlawed them here in Pa. I didn't know they had banned them and took mine to my Avian Vet for their annual checkup. He told me point blank that if I didnt find an out of state person to adopt them immediately he would be forced to call the game commission. The policy here in Pa is immediate euthanization. Needless to say, my cousin Jim in Delaware got an immediate phone call and he now has three quakers, who own him totally :D I guess thats the only good part, they got another good home. Sometimes politicians make no sense. Show me one study that shows quakers doing any kind of serious crop damage.
