I have 2 senegals- Maggie (F) and Buzz (M), 2 cockatiels- Gizmo (M) and Pearl (F), 1 Female Eclectus- Echo, and 1 DYH Amazon- Paco. Paco is from a parrot rescue and is very complex. He hates anyone with blonde hair! He doesn't allow me to touch him but steps up willingly and loves to go for car rides. Echo is a sweetie. I raised her from a little baby with a syringe and she's going to be 1 in May. I would like to ask the other eclectus owners to check my post on a different page. I have some questions to ask you guys. The senegals I got off craigslist and were pretty much wild when I got them but are becoming friendly pets. The cockatiels are my first parrots and I adore them for the fact that they are so much more simple and friendly than larger parrots.
. Lady Ashe died unexpectedly one summer morning around a year or so later. I still don't know what happened to her.. she was healthy and alert the afternoon before.. the next morning, my parents found her at the bottom of the cage. I suspect it might have been heat stroke.. but they had plenty of water, the cage was in a covered patio, half covered with a blanket to provide additional shade. Also, if it was heatstroke, I would have expected to lose Elvis, who was easily a decade her senior. Ashe was only around 3 years old.
) and watches everything that goes on. Merlin has also gone on a few walks. Both have a fairly good recall and return to my hand on command (usually.. if not, I just walk away and they fly to me, afraid I'm going to leave them there.) Merlin also doesn't fear the dogs, but doesn't attempt to terrorize them like Passion does.
