Hi Kim,
I wanted to write you and tell you how happy I am with Ariel. She is such a sweetheart. I have birds that came from other places and they dont compare to yours. I have found out that with your birds you can hug and kiss them and they like it. My other ones are so scared when you hold them that they want to bite you. I still love them but its so nice to have one that you can carry on your shoulder and kiss and hug. Herbie I also bought from you. He is so sweet and what a personality! We watch him and just giggle at the things he does. I cant wait to come home to see my babies. After a long and stressful day I come home and play with my birds. That is the best! In the morning I sit and watch them take a bath and clean themselves and have my coffee. Then they let me know that they want to see there mama. So I take them out and give them treats. My day cant start any better than that. Thankyou for doing such a good job. Your birds have given me more than you will ever know.
Love Sheila

Kim,

Just a little note letting you know Juicy Fruit is doing wonderful. We are planning a little 1st Birthday Party for him. He can now say.... STEP UP, BLOW KISS (and then does blow a kiss), WHERES MAMA?, DANCE (then he does the cute little head bob dance) he also clucks like a chicken and is the best Gaurd Bird EVER!!!!! Someone comes to the door and he is alerting me long before the dogs do. He also gives kisses and is learning to roll over. I was worried about him not playing with toys but now ............ there isnt a item he comes across that he doesnt make into a toy.

He is an amazing little fella and we love him more then any of us could of thought possible. Thank you for doing such an wonderful job with him.

Rob and Lynn Frost

P.S I will send Birthday Pictures!!!

 

Thanks Kim I still can not begin to express how much I am head over heals in love with Cupid!!!!! He is my buddy I mean I love all of my birds but he is exceptionally special!!! I always have read and heard and even experienced how affectionate Cockatoo's are...but I am telling you...Cupid is equally affectionate and without the typical switch in moods as the cocaktoo's can be. He lets me hold him upside down on his back snuggled next to me for as long as I have time to do so. I spend time with my other birds too giving scratches...but it is not anywhere near the same. They like it for a short time and then they have had enough. I am thoroughly convinced that Cupid would stay cuddled with me 24 hours a day except to eat, drink and poop occassionally. I guess for the "loud" thing it is in the "ears of the beholder"...lol Chuck gets irritated during the loudest part of the day which is as soon as I walk in the door after work..and trust me it is not just Cupid, it is all of them. But..I just talk quiet and calmly to them and know that as soon as I attend to each one they will get quiet. I think part of it is a "mom" thing, just like with our children when they are young. Mom's can better "tune things out" I think! :) Are all Sun Conures like this????? Or is Cupid exceptionally friendly? Does it seem to make a large difference in the amount of time you spend with Sun Conures?

KIM,

JUICY FRUIT IS DOING GREAT!!! HE IS VERY CLOSE TO SAYING THE WORD "MAMA" AND HE NOW SLEEPS IN A LITTLE COZY BOX WITH A BABY BLANKET AND ONCE I PUT HIM IN BED HE STAYS TILL MORNING WHEN I UNCOVER HIS CAGE AND SAY GOOD MORNING TO HIM. WE HAD A BUNCH OF PEOPLE OVER SATURDAY EVENING AND HE DID WELL WITH ALL THE ACTIVITY. THIS NEXT WEEKEND WE ARE GOING TO OUR COTTAGE FOR THE 3 DAY WEEKEND AND HE WILL BE COMING WITH SO IT WILL BE A NEW CAGE AND ENVIROMENT BUT IM GUESSING HE WILL DO FINE WITH IT. HE IS A MUCH LOVED AND ENJOYED MEMBER OF OUR FAMILY.

Hi, Kim,

My fiance, Lance, and I want to thank you for allowing us to bring Pickle, our green cheek conure, into our lives. He is a constant joy and a wonderful companion. We are really enjoying watching him grow and discover all the new things around him. He came to us wonderfully socialized and we could not have asked for a better temperament or plumage. We receive compliments from everyone he meets, for both his friendliness and the fact that he is in beautiful feather. He is also extremely well-behaved; the only time he makes a lot of noise is at bedtime, and then it's for less than a minute (just a normal birdie "good night!"). Otherwise, his vocalizations mostly consist of little chirps and "mumbles". Many of our non-bird-loving friends are now converts, thanks to Pickle! He's perfect for our lifestyle and he's exactly what I hoped he would be. Thanks again!!!

Heather

Ps. Here are a few photos I've taken since we took him home.

This is his cage, AKA The Pickle Barrel:

For size reference, here he is in the cuddle hut at the top:

Here he is testing out some mango at my mom's house:

Kim,

I can not express the joy, fun, and yes, even mischievous “Trouble” and temper outbursts I get from: Julio-ertta – (fischer love bird), Yellow top – (love bird), Ozzy & Fozzy – (love birds (the silver back twins)), Anna Banana & PuffPuff - (doves)! The birds are my greatest joy because they really can’t do anything wrong and they are so loving.

In my opinion, they are like they say dogs are! They will come to me anytime and love me unconditionally. I love all their individual sounds, whistles, and chirps they make! They also wait for me to come home from work.

I enjoy talking to you and getting your advice also.

I wish I had a bigger house because I would like a Blue Ring Neck also.

Oh yes, they even managed to get along with Peter, my Quaker who always ruled the roost! Imagine that.

Love ya!

Hi Kim,

I was talking to Adela the other day at work and she said she had some good news for me. I asked what that could be and she told me about Sam. That he now has a new home with a little 12 year old girl. That is awesome!!! I just want to thank you very much for taking him into your home for as long as you did and found him a good home to go to. You don’t know how happy I am, knowing he is being well taken care of. Again, I just want to thank you for everything you did. You’re a great person for all you do. All your animals should be happy to have a mom like you to take care of them.

Thanks again,

Shelly
