Hi!

I'm coming here from up North in Ottawa, Ontario (our country's capital!) on this blustery day to introduce my fids (and myself)!

I'm Crystal, and I grew up with budgies & cockatiels, hung out at obedience class for dogs with my dad a lot growing up, went to college eons ago for veterinary assistance, and fell into working with birds straight out of college - hence the true love affair began!

Rosco is our crazy Caique parrot, hatched in October 2006. Rosco's favourite activity is eating - fruit, nuts, veggies, pasta, the occasional finger when he's really frisky! He has a lot of energy, and really IS the life of the party.

Merlin is our African Grey parrot - he was born February 1999 (almost his BirdDay!), and is very well socialized with people & pets, and he has very good timing when it comes to his sarcastic sense of humour.

Stryder is our white-faced Cockatiel, hatched in January 2004. He loves his morning "hugs" and has an awesome belly laugh.

We also have four legged kids - Gideon & Fynn, our laid back Rhodesian Ridgebacks (2 and 1 years old); and Saxifrage (aka Kitten) our 7 year old medium haired cat.

Just wanted to pop in to say hi! I look forward to getting to know everyone!

Crystal

Welcome, Crystal!!!

I love your bird's names... I find it funny that your Grey is Merlin - my mom's is Gandalf - and your 'tiel is Stryder!!

My coach used to have a Rhodesian, she was the sweetest thing ever Smile

Look forward to getting to know you and your feathery/furry family!!

Very ironic - Merlin's a suitable Grey name. Stryder WAS Arwen until his first moult - oops, that pearling left, he started talking, and he found his "perch buddy" Wink.

We love our Ridgies - They're so lazy in the house, and the birds tell them to "Get!!" when they're in the bird room Smile Then Merlin starts barking at our younger pup and tells him to come back!

We should charge admission for our zoo Very Happy

My website's been added to the sticky list Smile
