 Awhile after losing my beloved Bailey, my husband found a bird on the internet. He asked if I liked it. I said yes, but I'm not ready. He said you will never be ready so let's go get the bird. We drove 945 round trip miles in the middle of October in the rain to Ohio. We found "him" (they thought it was a boy) in a small cage. The wings were severely cut, nails in bad shape, and tail shredded and broken. They got the bird at 10 weeks and had "him" a year. "He" never had a name, and they didn't handle the bird much. But they did teach him to step up and say "What are you doing"! They said, we are asking a good price because we don't want the bird. Well, the bird came home with us, an eight hour drive. After our vet saw the bird, it's a girl and she has a respiratory infection. She wasn't properly cared for so, she will always be small for a YCM. Named after a David Bowie song China Girl, please welcome ...our little CHYNA girl.

Hello Chyna~
Don't worry about the day mix up at all! It happens to mom all the time! Working nights has a lot to do with that!hehehehehehehe
Dixie's mom is on vacation so I have been spending the week with him and we are taking trips around his town. He lives on Cape Cod and there are so many interesting places to check out over there! We have been having a great time and the pictures are from our trips! I knew it would be pretty boring for him with his mom gone. He has a nice birdsitter lady but we all know it's not the same as having mom around!!
Sleep tight and sweet dreams!

Heya, Miss Chyna!
Yeah, Mom got cornfussed too--she thought my birdthday was on Wednesday. Glad your storms did not turn into a really bad one like the one that they had in OK. That was flat out creepy. Mom and I saw the size of it and how dark it was...and how much destruction!
Glad you were able to stop by the Dragon Cave for some of that superb Hatchday Cake!!! Oh, it was so much fun to have everyone eating and enjoying themselves! There is just nothing better than having Lizzie's food and the company of great friends to celebrate the day that Mom and I met, and I chose her to go home with!

Hi Chyna
Wow that is a lot of trees lost in that storm!! Hope it soon warms up there for you but its suppose to be cold here for us too tomorrow. When I went to bed last night mom said she was soon going to bed too. I was surprised because the parronts usually stay up later then that. I think moms 4 mile walk yesterday and dads 9 mile bike ride did them in. It was very humid and warm and mom blamed it on the weather and said it wooped them both LOL. “Friendship, like flowers, blooms ever fair, when carefully tended by dear friends that care.” Leaving a big old vote for you my friend….GusCome visit me, Gus & Chi chi ..

Hi Chyna
Hope your warm weather returns again soon! Last night mom and dad were both so tired they even went to bed earlier then usual. Mom washed clothes and dusted some but don’t think that is what made mom so tired. It was very humid and warm here yesterday and mom walked her 4 miles and dad biked his usual 9 miles and think the weather wooped them both LOL. “Friendship, like flowers, blooms ever fair, when carefully tended by dear friends that care.” Leaving a big ole vote for you my friend….Chi chi.Come visit me, Gus & Chi chi ..

Hi Chyna sweetie
Spotlight on Caring
Spotlight on Caring -Taz part 7
Sky here with our last blogs with the Proctor flock. I must say I have dearly enjoyed learning all about this well known B.C. flock. SKY; Please continue, Mom Gail; SUZIQ was the next member of the flock. She came from the same bird store as Scooby. We used to visit there fairly often and buy food there as well. Suzi was a sweet bird and used to live with the owner's wife but then after nine months she decided that she did want to sell her so Burt bought her for me to try and ease the pain of losing Xena, I was not ready for a grey and didn’t know if I ever would be. Suzi still is a beautiful and sweet girl who loves her me and only me. Suzi does like to lay eggs a lot. I have had her checked out to make sure her calcium levels were okay and they were, I also make sure that she gets enough calcium in her diet. Ekkies are also very sensitive with regards to their diets. They don't do well with a lot of additives in their food or with pellets; they need a nice fresh food diet. They also have a tendency to toe tapping and wing flapping usually due to an excess of additives in their diet or stress can also be the cause. Suzi did start to toe tap and wing flap years ago and I had to play detective to try and figure out what was causing this as she was not on any pellets or other type of bird food and there didn't seem to be any cause for stress either. After a lot of research I decided my only recourse was to do an elimination diet for her. I took away all food except peas to start with until she quit and if she didn't start up again after a few days I added another vegetable which was carrots...all well there but when I added corn well Suzi started up again, mom took it away and after three days she quit again. The only food to cause an issue was corn so no more corn for her ever. If she gets a little bit of corn cause she gets the wrong bowl the toe tapping and wing flapping come right back. No corn and all is well.
CHLOE is next to join, I was still missing having a grey around the house so Burt looked through the papers and found Chloe in a neighboring state. I talked to Chloe's mom through e-mails and we met them to pick her up and take her home. Chloe has been and is a joy to have around; she decided that she liked her dad best even though she was a Mother's Day present for mom. She is a good talker and has lots of sounds, some that she makes up. She loves to sing.
SIMON came to join us the following year. I always wanted a B&G macaw and so back to the papers for Burt. He spotted Simon in a neighboring state as well. We took the drive to see him. When we got there, we were let in to a very dark house where all the blinds were drawn and there was another macaw in the back screaming with a blanket over the cageCome visit me, JESSE, AMANDO, a Rain Forest Raider, little angel, jack, Sarah Little Bird, rally,, ANGEL, I'm a SILVER SLUGGER, 2nd baser, Zeena, I'm a Major League Beak, SKY & Miss BB, Lupe', flynn, Poncho, Casey & Tia ready for the Derby, broken wings, broken promises & CASPER, I'm a White Hawk!!!.

Spotlight on Caring Taz part 7b
As soon as Simon saw us he let out a really loud and friendly Hi, and as soon as we walked in we knew he was coming home with us no matter what. He has been a challenge for sure and I got bitten quite a few times in the beginning. He does not like men at all, in the 12 years he has been here that has not changed. He is a momma's boy and he has anger issues but I have figured him out pretty good now so I rarely get bitten unless I cause it by not paying attention. He is a very sweet bird in his own right. He loves being held and loved; I call him my cockatoo in a blue suit. My heart melts when he looks up at me and says "I love you", just like a guy. CHICA flew into our lives when her previous owner decided that he couldn't care for her anymore so he gave her to me. When Chica first came to live her she didn't like to be touched very much. She used to eat absolutely everything in sight until her bowl was empty. She gained quite a few grams now she is starting to enjoy being preened and held. It has taken time and patience so it is so nice to see her enjoying herself. She has learned a lot of new words from Simon and she has the most infectious laugh that it is impossible not to laugh with her.
PEARL was a beautiful little cockatiel. Burt saw her in a pet store, he really needs to stay away from those places, and brought her home. This was shortly after Tweety passed away. She was a sweetie and was sitting on Burt’s shoulder a few days after getting here and laid two eggs, she never laid anymore after that. She was with us for a few years and then got sick, we tried hard to save her but eventually she just couldn't stay with us anymore. It seemed as if she had turned the corner and was doing better but the next morning she was gone. She is buried in our back yard in the flowers. Miss you little girl. NAPOLEON joined us next. In case you didn't guess by now, I love greys. A lady in the bird club wanted to find a home for him and while at the meeting Napoleon and I were bonding so Burt talked to the lady and Napoleon was mine. They brought him over with his cage that evening. Napoleon is a wonderful companion and a wonderful bird. Napoleon is a sweet and loving bird who loves to give me kisses. He is constantly learning new words but won’t talk in front of Burt, when Burt leaves the room he starts talking or if he is with mom he talks…of course he doesn't like Burt or men for that matter. I am now complete...I have my grey...
Sky; Thank you for sharing such loving and touching facts about your bird family.
with my heart filled with love

Hi Chyna,
Mom is feeling lots better today, so I got my typist back. Not only did she do the ice pack thing on her shoulder a couple of times last night, but she had a session with a trainer at the gym today on working it out safely, and that helped too. So now she can type, which is what is important, right?
Oh, and Mom went to get her mammogram first thing this morning and an ultrasound too. She talked to the Radiologist about the ultrasound, and he said it looked good. She will have to wait a few days to find out the results on the mammo, but she's very optimistic since the ultrasound is the final word.
AND BIG NEWS. My mom has been trying to get me to say Mama for a couple of years, and the other night I did it! Of course, I haven't seen fit to repeat it, and can you blame me? I add a new word (a special one!) to my Hello and C'mon, and what does she want? She is now trying to get me to say Hello Mama! The nerve!

Hi CHYNA!!!
Yeah that is the trouble when you have a generator and and are not sure how bad the storm may be you do not always get the generator out so it can be used.Of course it sounds like you are surrounded with trees as we are also. So if a tree comes down you hope that your generator is not in that spot.I know we do not use it unless we are being warned that it is a bad storm and be prepared....40 trees are a lot to loose. But as said it was not anything like out in Oklahoma ...Hope you are having a nice day..Ours is quite rainy and temps have dropped a lot...The weekend the temps are only going up to about 65 as the highest..Most of the weekend will be spent at home except for Sunday Mom's niece and husband are having a Memorial Day Picnic and they going for the afternoon ....So what will you be doing? Just pecked another vote for you...With many birdie wing hugs to you my friend...Love you, Cydney :o)Come visit me, Cydney THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING ME BOTD 4/18/13, Sam VISIT STORMY AT THE KB #163138 ON 5/27/13, Cinnamon (deceased R.I.P.), Stormy VISIT ME AT THE KB 5/27-6/10/13 & Princess PLEASE VISIT STORMY AT THE KB 5/27-6/10.

Hi Chyna
Wow, 40 trees? That seems like a whole lot! And that poor plant, getting carried across the yard like that. Hope mom can save it, we love mandevilla vines.
Today mom herded cats! That's right, 2 kindergarten tours in dinosaur hall, with little ones going off in all directions! The chaperones were doing their best but kids get really excited there. Her third tour was with 5th grade, called Treasures of the Carnegie, which is basically a docent's choice tour, since the whole museum is a treasure trove.
Last night, mom worked an evening event in gems and minerals with a bunch of well to do adults at a wine tasting. It was fun, and right at the end, she ran into the president of the board of Animal Rescue League, the parent organization of the wildlife center. It was good to see him. He showed mom a spectacular picture of his blue and gold macaw. Mom may post it later.
The Pois pulled off a come from behind win yesterday, good for them. Giz was happy, Willie not so much. He really thought the Keets team would win. Both teams did a great job, though.
Hope you are having a good day, it's storming here. The storms started as soon as the game ended yesterday! Mom shut down the computer just in time.

Hi Chyna
the difference between me and Dixie is that i have liver disease and he has gout. the food requirements for both are quite similar and we stand by our recommendations for Dixies nutrition. the difference is that twice mom was told i was dying and their was nothing the vets could do and mom took things into her own hands and after extensive research started me on several supplements specificialy for liver disease on top of the continued low fat ,low protein diet of pellets and fresh veggies and fruits. there are many fruits and veggies i should not have because of the bodys ability to break down high sugar content which the diseased liver immediately converts to fat. i have been doing beautifully on these supplements. mom also has been slowly lowering the amount she is giving me. she didnt want to just immediately stop cold turkey since my immune system is comprimised due to the liver disease she didnt want me to come down with another problem. my feathers are very shiny soft and in good shape. the odd thing is that i have now grown bright red feathers in many places on my body. mom was concerned about this and after once again doing excessive research she has determined that over supplementing a parrots diet can cause this. you must understand that i needed the supplements when i was quite ill but as i have slowly recovered i need less and less of them and that is what mom is trying to do. she also has found that zuchinni makes me very lethargic "cant figure that one out" but rudebaga gives me lots of energy. i am still getting the same type of fruits and veggies and pellets and at this point mom has narrowed everything down to what makes me the most healthiest. i never get any snacks and nothing that isnt the most healthy. when mom runs by what she is feeding me to the vets they agree but never offer any help or extra suggestions. mom is quite pleased with my interest in what is going on around me, my alertness, my activity level, my expression on my face and how my eyes look. my beak and nail growth. we all can drop dead at any moment but mom is doing the best she can. when doing research she does quite a lot of cross referencing because not everything you read is correct especially on the internet. Dixies liver and kidneys do not function well and that is why she has a buildup of euremic acid causing the gout and a low protein diet is best for her. he can still eat more fatty foods than me. i do like to eat and mom only gives me 2 ounces of pellets a day plus my veggies and fruit. i get 1/4 teaspoon of boiled chicken for dinner on yop of the veggies and fruit.
mom did read that lowering the supplements will cause this extra pigmenttion in my feathers to fade and that is what she is hoping for. it is just a slow process. i hope i havent bored you with all this. be grateful we havent gone on more about it.
boos boos diet is the opposite of mine because she requires a high fat high protein and extremely low iron diet but we wont go into thatCome visit me, Paddy Cake & Piddy Girl, CORI vote Luigi 225307 & BOO BOO vote Luigi BOTM 225307.

Hello Chyna~
I have Kaji's hatchday as the 23rd~Today! I had better fly on over there and check it out with him! Thanks for the heads-up!
I hope you are enjoying the day! I hope the weather had calmed down also! Have you noticed how many weather-realated stories there have been of late? All that snow and now tornados. The huricane predictions are suppose to be out today too! I think it would be lovely to go for a few days and not hear anything about weather!!!

Hi CHYNA!!!
No wonder your Mom loves horses so much.It has been something she liked since childhood....Our Mom went on a bus trip to a Horse breeding farm in Maryland where a lot of famous race horses were after their racing career is over and they are there for the breeding. The horses were absolutely beautiful and their foals were just as gorgeous. Of course the Studs where handsome..Don't think Mom was being silly because every child that loves horses always want one of their own.But of course that is another story.....Hope you are having a nice Thursday....Just pecked another vote for you.....With many birdie wing hugs & beak kisses to you my friend....Love you, Sam :o)Come visit me, Cydney THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING ME BOTD 4/18/13, Sam VISIT STORMY AT THE KB #163138 ON 5/27/13, Cinnamon (deceased R.I.P.), Stormy VISIT ME AT THE KB 5/27-6/10/13 & Princess PLEASE VISIT STORMY AT THE KB 5/27-6/10.

Hi Chyna
V4U today. Sounds like you had quite a storm. We had bad weather here for a while, too. Glad it's all gone for now. Yes, that sure is an indication that a storm is coming when the weather is so nice and warm (when it shouldn't be) then all of a sudden surprise, surprise, here comes the storm. Our area is tornado prone, so we're used to it. So sad to see what happened in OK from the tornadoes. Wishing you a nice day and better weather. From, MayoCome visit me, Mayo, Dandy & Marigold.

Hi Chyna, my love ♥
Scoober cuddles with Chyna as she is telling him what happened. He feels so bad for Chyna and her family.
Oh, sweetie, how scary but I am glad that you had your mom there to protect you, I only wish I could have been there for you as well. I am happy that you are safe and sound again. That is a lot of trees for the country club to lose so those winds must have been really high...
Thank goodness the tornado did not show up, it was bad enough without it...
I hope that the sunshine did show up...
I heard that your team pictures should be done fairly soon so that is good. Can't wait to see your beautiful face in your baseball hat...
You have a game today, I will be in the stands rooting you on...look for the handsome zon with the Go Mighty Macaws Go sign...
Mom posted some pics of our garden on Chloe's page and also on Facebook if you want to check them out...Facebook has more pics and they are larger...

Hi, Chyna,
It's too bad your team pics weren't made prior to the season starting. Think perhaps someone with more time than the Kommish should've been behind the coach of your team, so as to have more time to devote for team spirit and the like. We will ask our coach about having a team poster made.
We can't imagine having a storm last that long. Most of ours are over within an hour if that and often it'll clear up and the sun will be back out. Hope the plant survives, but we expect it will.
Our temps have dropped to the mid 60s, so a lil warmer than yours, but we have lots of sun so it feels fine.
Have a wonderful day, wing hugs, beak kisses and a vote, Pearl and Silver.Come visit me, Pearl & Silver.

Hey Chyna!
So happy to hear that you are alright from the storms. The tornado in OK was just unbelievable! So sad. So destructive. Just awful. The country club near you lost 40 trees? Jeezzzzz! They are calling for storms here today.
Wow...those are cold temps for you...but at least it will be sunny.
Hope you have a nice day!
Love,
Raffikki and a V4 UCome visit me, Raffikki-Lets Play Ball Everybirdie.

Hi Chyna
It's Alex.
I'm not sure if mom and dad will get any glasses. Right not they don't have a lot of money for extra things. In about a week they have to pay for new eye glasses..
I can't believe your weather. It's got to get better soon.
Hope your day was good.
Hugs,

Hi again sweetie!
OUUUUUCH! Oh, ur poor sweet momma! A skewered eyeball definitely trumps toes in the nose! I sure hope mom's cornea healed without a deficit! That could have been a very serious injury! With our moms loving us so much & having their faces so close to our powerful beaks & sometimes razor-sharp toenails, it's a wonder more accidents don't happen! Mom is already back to giving me belly kisses...but she's making sure my toes are lower than her nose, hehe!
Sweet dreams sweetie, see u tomorrow!
Love u lots
TCome visit me, TiaMaria - PLEASE vote Luigi #225307 for BOTM!.

DAY 20 ~ THANKS FOR THE VOTE!
DANIA’S VACATION TO LEBANON part 1
Last year, in February 2012, my parents were discussing about my dad’s sister and his mom going to Lebanon to pay their sister insurance. My dad paid 1000$ every month to his sisters because his oldest sister had two grown children and their parents were divorced. In addition, the other sister who lived with them worked as a teacher and tried paying for the family. When I heard about it, I soon said I wanted to go to Lebanon too, to see my aunts, my cousin and family. My parents thought about it then, they decided that it would be my birthday present to go to Lebanon. I was glad but unfortunately I had to wait until end of March. I was usually impatient so I tried getting it out of my mind for a while. Then it was finally the day where me, my grandma and my aunt were heading to Lebanon. We sat at the airport where my dad worked, and went to a restaurant to have breakfast. Then it was time to say our goodbyes, I was leaving for two weeks and I was already crying, missing my parents. It was the first time I was gone that long from my parents and first time I was going on vacation during the school days. Furthermore, we boarded the plane and took off to head to Lebanon, Beirut. To be continued…..Come visit me, DJ LUIGI-Vote for me BOTM!!!!!!! & Calypso- THANKS FOR BOTD! Happy Mother's day!.

Hi from Micky
Mom and I cannot believe I am 9 years old already. I came to Mom when I was only a couple of months old and now I am a big boy and so independent. My entire flock lucked out because Mom cleaned all our cages outdoors and she gave every birdy a new toy, but I got TWO new toys and some treats. To make things better, I got BOTD. What more could a bird want. Spending a day in that Man Cave with King Jetta was something a bit different from the usual castle experience but it was loads of fun. Thanks so much for coming by to wish me a Happy Hatchday and to congratulate me on BOTD. I do hope you got a piece of the cake Lizzie baked - she is the best! Mom made cookies but they don't compare to the cake. Sorry Mom... giving Mom a kiss. See you on the baseball field!Come visit me, Leroy, Little Bit & Chloe - Thank you everybirdy!!, Gizmo - Thanks everybirdy for BOTD!, Max, Jasper, Right Fielder for the MAJOR LEAGUE BEAKS, Micky - Thanx for the Hatchday Wishes & BOTD!, Pepper - Thanks everybirdy for BOTD!, TiPaul - I'm a SILVER SLUGGER, Floop - Thanx for the Bday wishes & for BOTD, Marley - BOTD again! It is not possible!, Zak - Thank you everybirdy for BOTD! & Lee-Roial RIP - Thanks for remembering me..

Hi Chyna
We had some rain here this evening but suppose to have more tonight and tomorrow and get colder here too so we will see. Hope you dont lose power again either! That is scary. We thought we might of missed chatting somehow so that is why we wrote then. At the one grands school at the end of 5th grade they go camping for 3 days every year and the grands dad went too as a chaperone. Skin sis stayed home to take care of the dog and house but sure missed the grand and her dad. Skin sis came up to visit with us but wanted to stay home at night to be with the dog and said she slept good in her own bed. They are all home from camping and had a good time and many memories too I am sure. “Friendship, like flowers, blooms ever fair, when carefully tended by dear friends that care.” Leaving a big old vote for you my friend….GusCome visit me, Gus & Chi chi ..

Hi CHYNA!!!
So glad that you got your power back. These storms keep popping up and your never can tell whether they will be a bad one or not.We now have a generator all wired up and ready to go in case there is a storm that knocks the power off for any length of time. We will be able to run almost everything and especially the lights, TV, heat, Hot water heater, all the kitchen appliances & the freezer in the garage.Because we have to many power failures here. Yes I do not blame you for being afraid of the storms we do not like them either....Our hearts certainly go out to all of those who lost somebody plus their homes & all of their personal belongings in Oklahoma....It is devastating to hear and see what has happened....Hope you are having a better day today....With many birdie wing hugs to you my friend...Love you, Cydney :o)Come visit me, Cydney THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING ME BOTD 4/18/13, Sam VISIT STORMY AT THE KB #163138 ON 5/27/13, Cinnamon (deceased R.I.P.), Stormy VISIT ME AT THE KB 5/27-6/10/13 & Princess PLEASE VISIT STORMY AT THE KB 5/27-6/10.

Hi Chyna
Hope your team wins too and yes would be nice if each team wins at least one this month like you say. It sure was hot and humid here today and had a few showers but suppose to have more and cool off then. The one grand and her dad went camping with the school and skin sis sure did miss them. The kids go every year at the end of 5th grade for 3 days and her dad went as a chaperone. Skin sis came to visit with us a good bit and mom said she could spend the nights to but skin sis wanted to be home with the dog at night. They are all home again and had a good time and will have many memories of the camping trip too. “Friendship, like flowers, blooms ever fair, when carefully tended by dear friends that care.” Leaving a big ole vote for you my friend….Chi chi.Come visit me, Gus & Chi chi ..

Hi Chyna
mom thought she had me on the best possible healthy diet. even when i was sick the vets always said how good my feathers looked with only one or two feathers with stress bars on them. mom was very happy to see how beautifully my new feathers were coming in after my spring molt. well wouldnt yoju know my feathers are now loaded with stress bars. i look much healthier, am more active, my beak is growing in perfectly. as a matter of fact mom doesnt even have to trim it because it is not growing so rapidly now. mom thought i was on my way to recovery until she sees all these stress bars. she did read that if you over supplement your parrot excess pigmentation and stress bars can occur so mom has stopped all my supplements for liver disease. so far so good but i guess we will have to wait for my next molt to see the end results. mom says as long as i am acting healthy and have a sparkle in my eyes she is happy(sort of). she just doesnt like seeing all these stress bars. why last night when i had my bath i was flapping my wings like crazy and having the best time. she says i havent acted like that for quite a long time so that made her happy also. by the time i was done with my bath mom was completely soaked. love Cori
HAPPY HUMPDAY! mom was feeding my crickets in my cricket farm and one managed to jump out. it had only a few minutes of freedom before i spied it and pounced on it.
mom said she has never seen me move so fast. its been a long time since i have eaten a live one. boy, was it ever tasty!
love Boo BooCome visit me, Paddy Cake & Piddy Girl, CORI vote Luigi 225307 & BOO BOO vote Luigi BOTM 225307.
