I am so ecstatic! I have been blessed with a new baby boy! I have a huge playtop cage for him as well. I have to work with him, but he has so much personality. Ralphie is 5 yrs old, and when he was 2, his owner committed suicide...then he went on to a nice young man, that had him for three years. Unfortunatly, his owner couldn't keep him. Thus, I am blessed with a new feather baby! He is beautiful...I fell in love at first sight. As soon as he stepped on my arm, I was taken in by his big beautiful eyes!

Tomorrow I am going to try and get him a well bird appointment and have his wings, nails and beak done. I can tell his razor sharp nails haven't been clipped in ages, my arm has the prick marks and scabs to prove it! LOL Actually, I need to clip Cordy's nails as well, but I can do her myself. Ralphie on the other hand is huge, and we aren't that aquainted yet...so I don't want to lose a finger so to speak, lol.

He has so much personality...he dances and plays around. He was on his cage, and was standing there with is claw up as to say 'hi'. So, dad started opening and closing his own hand up in the air, and Ralphie copied him over and over. He is a smart bird. I can't wait to work with him more.

Here is Ralphie in his travel cage (took picture with my cell phone). When my camera comes back from the Casio repair people, I will post better pics. I luff my new feather baby!
