No, they aren't open today, but they will be tomorrow.I LOVE the turquoise. Always have. But yeah, who picks you.

I have a whole list of stuff I gotta get- pellets, most importantly. Also nutriberries, avicakes, some type of treat seeds, and foot toys. They also have sulfate-free dried fruits and veggies, so maybe I'll get some too. Then we'll have to take a big trip to Whole Foods for chop stuff.
Make sure to take lots of pictures of the conures while you're there tomorrow!
I thought I wanted a typical GCC, but when I went to the store they only had new pineapple babies. Waffle (who was either Pip or Squeak at the time) poked her little head out from under the tea towel keeping the babies warm and cheeped at me and that was it! I was chosen!

It's nice to have some excitement around here!
There should be an excited reaction so we can all react with super excited faces!

We'll be heading there shortly! They currently have 1 turquoise and 1 pineapple.
I was just wondering what a non-bird person would think if someone told them this, "Are you going to some special produce store?!?"We'll be heading there shortly! They currently have 1 turquoise and 1 pineapple.

For anyone who got their bird as a baby, is there any baby-related stuff I need to do? Like any special cage setups or anything?
Waffle was 13 weeks when I brought her home. She was very nimble so I didn't have anything special. Her main perch is made of fleece rope so she had a soft place to perch with lots of surface area. She didn't have a ton of toys when I first brought her home b/c I didn't want to overwhelm her--but that quickly changed.

Prepping the upstairs now It's not quite a bird room, but it's where all the bird stuff minus the main cage goes. Much to do!

I gotta say, when I got to hold them, I was surprised how heavy they were! A chunky little baby. They sat on my hand, climbed up to my elbow, and jumped over to the cage with the baby sun conures, to go try and tease them. I think they're a curious type

Yeah, that's my baby! Something about her just spoke to me. She kept looking at me, like she was wondering if I was her new human.
I picked up pellets, nutriberries, avicakes, millet, a jingly ball and a birdie kabob while I was there. Before we bring her home I'll have to make a run to Whole Foods too.
