Lol Deb, don't let that put you off. There's a nice looking pair on an other site for sale. Winter's coming soon anyway so you'll be wearing more layers, you won't feel a thing.

Hehe B/Green :lol: I like having 10 fingers and a nose , ears , lips etc .

Saw a stupid thing yesterday while I was admiring a Corella x Galah baby , I had it on my arm and just talking to it , doing the head scratch thing and this woman comes up and tries to plant a kiss on it FULL LIP CONTACT . I heard my other half mumble " wait for it " but it didn't happen . Would have been funny though .

Oh it was a pet shop and the woman was a customer .

I used to trust my Sulphar crested to that degree. Not anymore though, she's so moody now sometimes when I enter her aviary if I ignore her she lunges (spelling) out at my head. She hasn't been successful yet but she'll get me one day.

my major mitchell boy eats treats from my hand every day, has even done finch mix, but he got grumpy with me and nipped my finger :lol: i deserved it but it was only a little nip to tell me off, not a bite. he even ate peanuts from between my teeth for a little while, not since i got dreads though :(

think i'm going to construct a temporary suspended inside the aviary and see how they go together...
