3 years ago I went and picked up this "conure" mostly against my husband's wishes :lol:

I don't know his Hatchday but know that he was born in 1999, so it's a dual purpose day.

He is celebrating with extra almonds, and by trying to eat my ceiling beams, which I am trying my hardest to distract him from :lol:

Happy day!

I'm curious -- has Ripley gotten more orange-ish, or is the white balance just different between cameras?

A bit of both - his colors were definitely much more dull and muted when I first got him. He was very vitamin deficient and underweight. All seeds for 19 years will do that to you!

Of course. I knew exactly what he was the moment I saw his ad on Craigslist :) I just call him my conure on our anniversary for fun :D

:cheer: Congratulations to you both! I'm also shocked at the yellow on his head that turned orange.
