HOLY COW!! Do you have ANY time for yourself?? LOL Sounds like you always have fun, interesting days tho! I don't know how you do it - you're definitely my idol! Teehee! I would absolutely love to have a cockatoo or african grey but I worry since I work full time that they wouldn't get enough attention. I do wonder how others do since I know they have to work, too?? If you had to choose just ONE bird to have, which one would you, that's your favorite? I know it's hard to choose! I read something yesterday that said it could take a year to fully tame and bond with a cockatiel (or other bird) so I might give her a little longer before I consider adding to my flock. I appreciate your honesty and advice. I hope she does come around and like scritches and cuddling. She loves to be with me - on my shoulder or beside me - so I guess that's a start! I bought a book on trick training, too, which I hope helps bond us even more. We shall see!
