Hello, from Kentucky!

It is good that you have grown and learned from your past, we all have to learn sometime and start somewhere, just don't make the mistake of judging yourself based of your past with todays knowledge.

I got him from a pet store, and there were probably 40-50 meets in a cage big enough for about 15. He was probably always malnourished and the lone seeds I was giving him didn't help. He also had an 18" tall x12" deep x12" wide. I could have gotten a bigger cage for him but I thought, hey, small bird small cage. I have a completely different outlook on bird keeping now my conure's cage is pretty large, and I'll probably get another one in the future to accommodate another bird along with my Pilot. I can't wait to get my bird!!! [/quote]

We all made that kind of mistake. We just did what everybody else did back then not realizing it was all wrong. Thankfully, we have learned a lot about birds in the last 15 years and we keep on finding out new stuff about them all the time. The important thing is to apply what we now know.

Hi ShelbyLRay and MOWMAI,

I am also fairly new and looking forward to learning all I can from the wonderful folks here. I have a Severe Macaw named Lady. She is quite a handful at times but working with her and learning about her is something I enjoy daily.
