Obviously I don't want anything near my bird baby that could be bad for him. I've seen the list of foods to not share with your bird (onions, avocado, coffee, etc) but is that a list of foods/things that are like sprint-across-the-room bad if he takes a bite? Like, go-immediately-to-the-vet bad...

This is so fun, thanks for sharing!! How do you tell those two fluff balls apart?

I want a thread where you show a photo of your bird baby and then list all the most ridiculous nicknames you've given them :D I'll start- This is Goose aka Silly Goose Goosey Boy Kiwi Butt Fluff Boi Lil' Squeaker and sometimes... my little tropical chicken

The nails are currently about this long... we should cut them again, right?

Thanks for all the great ideas!! I'm happy to report that things have been only getting better and better with Goose. Hands- There has been huge progress with hands! He was hand raised but I guess got rusty on that with the last owner. We put our hands near him regularly and haven't had a...

Yes, we adopted him at two years old. We have just clipped the nails for the first time (first time for us) so they are shorter now, but we were unsure how short to go... any advice?

Thank you everyone for sharing all your thoughts and experiences!! We are working through this all, and making some progress. It's hard to sort out all the variables! We'll update soon :)

So we ended up keeping him in a different smaller cage that was more open for the long drive. He was a little panicky at first but once in the cage calmed down quickly, and I kept it on my lap the whole way home. He seems to be settling in ok, is pretty chatty and curious, and does like to come...

Thanks so much! You're making me feel more relieved that it's ONLY an 8 hour trip :D

Hello! We are picking up a 2 year old male Linnie tomorrow. It's a four hour car trip (each way) and we'd love to hear any tips on making it more comfortable for the bird, especially since we haven't met it yet. We have a small carrying thing that doesn't have a lot of windows (see photo), so...
