Hello from Alberta

Hi Everyone! I am somewhat new to the parrot forum thing. I want to be able to get to know other bird lovers and maybe help people with some bird questions. At the moment I have a peach faced lovebird and a Hahns Macaw. I honestly hated birds about a year and a half ago, I really wanted nothing to do with them. But then I started working at a petstore and ended up loving birds. I now understand that birds make wonderful pets and I will never go back to anything else. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying other pets are terrible, I'm just bird obsessed :)

I started out with a pair of abandoned and abused cockatiels, I tried for a year to get them socialized and interacting with people but they never changed their ways. It broke my heart to give them to a friend with an aviary, but he tells me they are doing wonderful and they both even have girlfriends now and seem to be very happy :)

The next bird I got was my special little lovebird Scooter. Scooter is Splay-legged, both of her legs stick straight out to the side. She was brought into my store, and the "owners" said if we didn't take her they were going to put her down. I couldn't let that happen so I took her home and hand fed her till she was weaned. She will be a year old in October and she is one of the happiest lovebirds you'll ever meet. Odin in my most recent bird, I just got him a month ago. He's a wonderful little Hahns. I just wish Scooter and him would get along...maybe in time. I love both my birds with all my heart and I couldn't imagine life without them!
