She is definitely her “own” bird.
We were at the park/local swim hole today and she deemed this passing group to “loud” for her liking so she told them to “Stop talking So loud” one of the girls asked if she could take pictures and Scallywags told her “Nope, not today Satan” and proceeded to turn around and showed her, her backside.
Scallywags is quickly becoming one of my favorite birds here on AA...:yes4:

Few can claim to have had a bird this long.

This is true ownership at its best.

Bird was 22 when I was born.

Fantastic.

One love

Well and she is flat lucky.

Her health is top notch for a bird her age.

Simply the poster child for well aged and care for birds.

It does not get much more impressive if your a animal lover at all.

Rare.

One love

She does have “thinner” feathered areas. Especially around her leggings and her back. But you’d only notice when she does a long Slowww stretch. She seems to molt more than when she was younger.
Thanks everyone. I have so many funny Scally stories.

The better you feed them the more they molt so you must be keeping her diet good.

Its like being in a constant detox always shedding off the old to come out with the new.

Scares the heck out of us lol to see ourselves get old and the bird still look about the same.

They say a green wing named poncho is 93 years old.

Unreal to look at a high priced yard bird and know it lives that long lol.

One love

I can say my grocery bill runs about 600-700 dollars a month. This covers human and feathered flock food. I wish more people that parrots have such a WIDE variety diet.

Tonight’s dinner consists of Angel hair pasta with shrimp,crab, smoked mullet in Alfredo sauce. Spicy mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. Everyone will get their little bit.

Luna our tag and Scallywags and Cotton(who kept hiding on my back) the other day, enjoying the day at the park. Well I tried to get the photo of Alina and Scally together on the table. But it won’t pull up anymore of my photos.

Awww, Poncho is such a sweet old girl. Seeing her with the people she is pictured with is heart melting, they all look so comfortable and happy together.

Scallywags was being a pistol today. She apparently loves her new “nut ball” so much, I can’t even refill it. I keep trying to tell her I wouldn’t have to replace them if she would stop breaking them.

So I had to put Scallywags on a diet. She is getting a little hefty. The problem with this is that my adoring husband isn’t helping. He helps her “cheat” so when I caught him sneaking her food off of whatever he was snacking on, Scallywags response was “frick you mom, I want it” “face palm” The joys of parrothood.

...I'd have the same problem with Scally...I know I wouldn't be able to resist giving extra treats to her...call it a weakness...:rolleyes:
