Hey Everyone, Tooks some pics and thought I would put them on here for you all to enjoy. The first one is of Bo. Bo is half of our breeding pair of Festive Amazons here. Bo was imported into the States 21 years ago. So he may actually be around 23 - 25. He's a great male and very good father. I've got 3 of his kids here from 02, 05 & 07. All were raised and fledged by Bo & Eva. The second is one of the Illiger Macaws here. These are this particular hens first babies. She hatched one out last Thursday and the other on Saturday. The last one is of one one of our BLue & Gold Pairs. This is Rico. Rico as many of you know is/was my pet. Was a friendly bird once. I'm sure he still is if I can pry him away from Chica his mate. These two have a love hate relationship. I watch them through the window and their all loveydovey with each other. Then when I'm outside they bicker with each other ALOT. Quite amusing to watch them . Enjoy the photo's. Hope everyone is well Justin.

Thanks for those Justin! Rico and the female look well bonded! Is he still tame at all? at the moment Matt I will say his not. However I'm sure that's ony because it's spring time and he is doing what he is meant to be doing by protecting his nest and mate from the tall mean australian man. If I can get him away from her and back into the house I'm 100% sure he will still be the same old Rico.

How could you split up such a loving relationship Justin! You will just have to handrear yourself a "Rico Junior" when wedded bliss is over and the young ones start arriving. jen

I've got Scarlet right now and he's formed a rather strong bond with me to the point where he literally chases away other people when I'm by him. I think it's quite amusing. watching him do that. Others don't but i dont' care haha.
