(47,675 posts)She looked very much like that (different facial markings) and he even hosted a mate for her, but she wasn't interested. He ended up giving her to a woman who specialized in raising macaws. They can be REALLY nasty, but she always loved him and groomed his beard. They're not birds to fuck with, trust me.

(72,300 posts)I have been owned by this parrot since 2001. She shares my meals, sleeps in my room and travels with me when it is safe for her.
I wouldn't try to breed her as her mate would take my place in her heart. I'm not ready to give her up.

(47,675 posts)Frankly, I consider most species to be close to human, but parrots are the only birds that share our ethics and companionship (well, other than bluejays - do NOT fuck with a bluejay offspring). We're the dominate species, which means WE'RE the ones who get to fuck up the planet.
Pretty much every other mammal has a better survival rate than we do. They are more adaptable to conditions we (humans) inflict on them. Birds seem to survive anything. At least they can fly. I always wanted to, but it never worked out.
When you take in a pet (of any sort), it is a member of the family. To quote Forrest Gump, "And that's all I have to say about that."

(9,650 posts)The more posts in the thread, the easier it is, in a confusing way. LOL.
It's one of those 'if we told you, we'd have to kill you' kind of things.
In other words, it's all SECRET.

Tsiyu
(18,186 posts)to pronounce the word.
It is not: "PEE-CAN."
It is "PIH-KAHN'" with the emphasis on the second syllable.
Otherwise the whole thing just gets all fucked up.
Now, carry on....
