Couple of toys, I saw 4 months old Toucan, but I almost bought Bourke...

I took her number. That lady had them hand-feed and hand raised, socialized. The "old" ones was about 1 week to ween. The new one was... so cute babies. By the next bird fair the small will be ready to go.
I talked to her for a long while. Bourke's cage looked clean, they ate veggies.

She wants $75 for bird. What should I say to my boyfriend Rolling Eyes
What serious excuses you use to your partners, after you promised that last one was the last one(the only one in his knowledge in the future will be 'zon)?

Umm... it followed me home?

It's small and doesn't make much noise?

But I REALLY REALLY want this bird!

I've been wanting one of these FOREVER! I just never thought I'd have the chance to actually GET one!

This one's SPECIAL... we have a *spark*.

Shall I go on?

Paint the walls pink. My walls are white, and sometimes I don't see Bonnie right away.

Or, you could buy it, tell him, he makes you return her, you don't have the heart, so you send him my way Smile

Was it a mutation?

You all rocks flappinhappy
I can't say/paint pink, because I truly hate that color and he knows that! But little pink Bourke was cute.
I have to find Napoleon's plan to bring that cutie home.

Ahaha! Bring it home and name it Raspberry! Very Happy

I like the idea of bringing it home and saying you've had it for a long time.

How about:
Lucky was my dream bird and he likes you better. I had to get a bird for me.

That's a good one, but it won't work. Chico is my spoiled baby!
If I ever buy that Bourke, I will for sure name her Raspberry. I like that name and I have no fantasy to name birds.
I was thinking to say that Roz send me Bourke as a favor for something, but he's not that stupid Embarassed
And why I didn't thought about that before,
Roz when are you gonna have tamed, sweet Bourkes?

I'm trying to talk her into a Bourke myself ... actually, I'm like you Margaret, I'm trying to talk my HUBS into one! LOL!

When I was trying to arrange the furniture in my bird room and decide where to put everything, I made the comment that I needed to have room to put free-standing cages that would inevitably turn up. My hubs asked why I'd need those? Everybody HAD a cage! I told him that he KNEW that I'd end up with more birds at some point, it's not if, it's when!
