I have always loved Meyers ( along with a big others on my wishlist) so when they were advertised locally I thought I'd treat myself!!) ( last big cage used up now!!!!) I'm just in love!! I've called them Grissam and Cathryn. They are about 6 years old. Grissam loves a tickle on the head and they both take nuts from the hand. They have settled really well, and don't flap and panic ( like most newbies). I think they knew I'd love them. Cathryn is the boss, she must eat before Cathryn. I'll get some decent pics up soon ( I've taken some on iPhone but my digi cam is alot better!!! |

Thanks guys! These are a breeding pair (apparently) Ollie is a handsome boy! Yeah I've been told they get quiet territorial of one owner! Also been told they can kill ( like cockatoos) especially if you pair up a hand reared one to breed. But Giss and Cath have been together years . Bit I'm always checking up on them! At this rate I'm gonna have to stay at home permantly once maternity is up lol!!!! |
