Well, so far only two ‘tiel babies. That’s ok as the more I read about what can go wrong, the better I feel about having a limited number to worry about. Also, the extra work involved is fairly significant even allowing for the parents doing most of the work. I’m now cooking breakfast and<\/strong><\/em> dinner for birds!!! Who would have thought??? Of course, Taji won’t be left out of the pampering — after all, he’s a baby, too.<\/p>\n

I posted on a bird board asking for help regarding feeding the adults good food for the babies and got slammed for breeding — guess I am the equivalent of a back yard breeder of birds (can you breed ANYTHING without these extremists getting on your case??? — even had one tell me that it was totally unnatural to keep them caged!!!). I did learn that if you shake the eggs, they won’t develop, so at least I don’t have to separate a bonded pair in order to keep from\u00c2\u00a0adding to\u00c2\u00a0the “thousands of abused ‘tiels that are in rescue”. [soapbox] My personal take on this is to educate the prospective owners on the proper care of a bird before letting them have it. You all know how I do the dogs — talk, talk, talk, built up a website with information, joined clubs, read books, all with the goal in mind of teaching people how to humanely and realistically care for the dogs I breed. Owning a pet should not carry a stigma with it. Breeding pets should not carry stigma with it. There are right ways and wrong ways to do everything. There are humane ways to do everything. Educate don’t alienate! [off soapbox]<\/p>\n

I didn’t hear from Yvonne if she got the wildlife rescue lady to take the ‘possums, but I sure hope she did. I know she’s gone on her trip by now. Pray that no storms disrupt her visit!<\/p>\n

My HR director came in my office this morning to ask if I had had her arrested! I said no (of course), then she went on to tell me that someone had her arrested for the MS fundraising campaign. Guess I will\u00c2\u00a0have to try to come up with bail money — I sure like getting my paychecks :LOL: She did make me think evil thoughts about having the GKC president arrested — he was a city cop before he retired — think that would be justice served, don’t you?<\/p>\n

The new programs from EService are working great. Now to put final touches on my piece and we’ll be cooking with gas.<\/p>\n

Lunch time is over. Got to run.<\/p>\n

Love to all,<\/p>\n
