My Two ****atiels

    Hi There,

    Thought i'd share some pictures of my two ****atiels. I've had parrots for several years, mostly rescues as i used to do a lot of work with a rescue charity. So i've had everything from budgies to macaws!! I lost my last parrot in August, he was a rescued Rainbow Lorikeet called Joey (i'll stick a picture of him on the end of the post lol) and am currently waiting for a new one! Im going to be getting a Black Capped Lory. Just got to wait for eggs to be laid, and hatch!

    But, here are my two little ****atiels. Sweet Pea is the white (lutino) one. I've had her since the end of august, my mum bought her for me to cheer me up after Joey died :rolleyes: She's about a year old now. The grey one, James, i bought about 3 weeks ago as Sweet Pea was screaming the house down cos she wanted a man :D He's about 2 years old.

    @JENGOSMonkey I WAS THERE FOR '89! I was a kid, but I remember the water coming out of the swimming pool in huge waves and everything falling from the shelves! I was actually born in San Jose, but moved around a lot later LOL I hear the wildfires are more of a concern for you guys now? That's scarier than quakes for me...

    I cannot imagine committing to buy a puppy without seeing the animal and if possible the sire and dam. OTOH, a rescue (or adoption of an older dog) is a different thing. My last two Basenjis came to me sight unseen, and turned out to be wonderful dogs, but the breeders I got them from wanted to place their dogs in an experienced Basenji home, and I only paid the cost of getting the dogs to me. One came by air, one was personally transported to me by his breeder. If she hadn't been happy with what she found I expect she would have taken him back with her when she left. I also had to commit to return him if ever I couldn't keep him. Good breeders care about where their dogs end up.

    @kembe - Very True Kembe, here is a link on looking for a responsible breeder. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags There are many scammers out there, don't fall for one.. or a person that is not a responsible breeder.

    @sanjibasenji Thanks for the article on Dog Genome Project - I found it very interesting. I was trying to figure out the interactive Genome wheel. It has the basenji closely related to the Azawakh and rat terrier but I’m still trying to figure out the first wheel which has the basenji listed w/ black/grey starting point. As far as the PBS Dog Tales video - it’s very interesting - it’s season 47 episode 2 - I highly recommend you watch the whole thing (54 minutes).

    @Ashmoore92 It got put on the "back burner" ... I have some, but not enough for a book. I'll circle back around to it.
