Well he is here, we brought Peanut home last Saturday. He is hilarious and a total goofball and seems to have settled right in. Charlie is being the typical big brother and not being very nice, so we never have them out of their cages together. Peanut loves my sons and acts especially goofy with them, he likes hearing them laugh, I only have one picture right now, he doesn't sit still too long for me to get one!

What a sweetie. If I was going to ever get another bird it would be a caique. I love their playfulness. Keep those pictures coming.

Caiques are much bigger than a Gcc.... about the size of a ringneck or alexandrine, but fatter and not as slim XD

Peanut has settled right in and he is a HAM! I had him out the other morning and was making breakfast for him and his brother (Charlie) and he couldn't stand not being on top of the blueberry container and could not wait for me to get the apple cut up fast enough so started picking up the slices that I had already cut and eating them on the counter. Thank you everyone for the positive comments, he is doing great and he keeps us laughing! Below is the picture of his impatience and cuteness :pinkgrin:

He did win me over quickly, he is so funny! I think the thing that won me over the most is how much he loves my sons, he would rather be hanging out with them than with me or my husband. He starts squaking the minute he sees them and my 5 year old and he are very friendly that is the first thing he does in the morning is ask if he can take Peanut out. Charlie is still my bird though.

That's a lot of blueberries! He wants to make sure he gets share, lol.

Oh my goodness Alice you have no idea, the breeder we got him from said that caiques are known as the garbage disposals of the bird world. He will fly over the island and "harass"me as I am making their food.

We have friends that have an orchard/farm and we go every summer and pick blueberries and my husband makes blueberry jam :th_smile: hence the reason for the motherload of blueberries.
