Today is a sad day for me. My four young ones will be going to two separate new homes. If anyone remembers, I've posted about their babyhood on Pictures - Babies growing like the wind | Avian Avenue Parrot Forum

What they look like today at 5 months old (with the mother Thunder Cat to the left):

Nugget and Yoyo seem to be a bonded pair, always sitting together on a swing:

Monster is a mama's boy, but he gets along with Nugget too:

Last family bath together:

Dodo, my special favorite:

Family playtime:

I will be visiting them at their new homes and helping the new owners on questions about bird care. But I shall miss all those months when the whole bird family used to fly around the room like a joyous hurricane and descending upon my arms and head one after another even though they're not hand tame.

You will always be my babies: Nugget, Dodo, Monster and Yoyo. Thank you so much for having been part of my life.

Such beautiful birds! I'm sure it's hard to see them go. Do they have their own playhouse? That's so cute.

Awww I know you will be sad but at least you can follow up with their new owners and keep in contact with them. They are so sweet and precious plus they had a wonderful start in life because of you :)

I wanted to ask you, are those the house looking cages that they have on the Petco website? If so, I want one for a playhouse for the lovies! I had no idea that they looked so darn adorable inside!

I know it must break your heart to see them go but then again I know you chose a good home for them.

It's a children's dollhouse that I let them play and forage in. Before they took over:

The person who was going to adopt Dodo and Monster backed out at the last minute. Luckily the other lady who adopted Yoyo and Nugget agreed to foster the other two as well and she lives only a few blocks from me. So it all worked out for the best!
