    ~~Yep I Am Expecting Again~~

    OK folks, don't fall out of your chairs or think me crazy, but at my age I am expecting! Yep, I definitely have 'The Baby Bird Bump'

    Alright the gig's up. I'm not actually expecting to lay a baby bird egg and hatch it, But...I am now just today/tonight 'A Lady In Waiting' for my baby parrot to hatch, wean and come home to my wide outstretched open arms!

    Ahhh, I have ya'll wondering what kind of gorgeous prancing, strutting, feathered wonder did I set my cap for this time? Another macaw maybe, they are my favorite? Another Green Wing? They are definitely my favorite! Nope!!

    Tired of guessing by now, I should expect. So I shall tell all ya'll, my good friends and flock that I have absolutely gone off the deep end and went and paid a deposit on a Cockatoo!! A Rose Breasted Cockatoo at that!!! Yep I will soon have a 'Pink Birdie' in my flock like you Terri.

    Now for the details of how this has come about. This time off I decided to look about online for RB2 breeders and found there is actually an aviary in Texas. They are still around 300 miles from me, but very drivable and I don't have to be totally stressed out worrying about my baby on a plane and something happening to it. I was just testing the waters on what is available and once I found this aviary I decided to send for more info. The guy got back with me today and said the eggs are hatching now and the first one hatched yesterday. So he is taking deposits to be on the waiting list for one after they hatch and he usually has 15 to choose from. I didn't want to miss out on this year's season and decided I was ready to be owned by a Too.

    The babies won't be weaned til the last of June and into July, so I have plenty of time to get a nice large comfy cage, build a play perch and get everything ready for the delivery. No photos of course yet since I only have claims to an eggie right now. I shall keep everyone updated on the baby bump as I have new info on how I'm...'er the eggie/fabie is progressing.

    Congrats De'! I would be terrified of having a 'too in my house. I know next to nothing about them other than they tend to be needy birds if not raised right. I cannot wait to watch your little one grow from an egg to a beautiful adult!

    Thanks everyone! I will definitely add photos when I have any sent to me. The breeder said he would send some once he gets them hatched, sorted and I have one assigned to me.

    Terri I remember you telling me you could give me your breeder's info and I could get one of hers. I was just looking (like how many folks on here believe that?!!) and when I found there is a breeder in my own state I decided to give it a try. I much prefer to drive to pick up the baby than to stress out over a plane flight. But, should none of his babies make it or he runs out before my waiting number is up, I will definitely be checking with your breeder.

    I have to go take my nap now, tis another work week tonight.
