assistant: Hehehehehe  I'm here reading and laughing...yea the mail is ghe
       board....but it seems that Fido in this area is having
       trouble...;(
       Yep Green Thing...and he is the funniest little bird...he gives
       kisses...and broke my glasses....He is good about not biting when
       he is told not to...;-)
       This was via process of elimination...every morning when I got up
       my head was full...had problem all day long but when out I was
       ok....stayed over at a friends house twice she has a grey
       'teil...and didn't have the problem....seems because she was a
       lutino they have more dander....since she has been gone I'm doing
       fine...I cried but the new guy Cry Baby is doing fine...they are
       going to get their wings clipped on Sat...and then maybe I can
       work with him some more..he doesn't like to be handled...or
       petted...hopefully that will change....;-)  Princess is in with
       another female  and two babies....she gets a little time with the
       breeder and gives kisses...plays on top of her cage...she is
       going to try and sell her...but if that doesn't happen she
       doesn't care because she thinks that Princess will make a good
       breeder lutino...:-)
       Well it looks like a wait and see situation....he is a cute
       little guy but he isn't use to me yet...since he can fly he just
       takes off whenever I want to pet him....I've been going slow with
       him...but hopefully when he just can't take off...he will come
       around...;-)  But I didn't think that females talked...he stands
       on the top of his cage and talks...he has picked up Pretty,
       pretty , pretty bird already...and is mumbling something
       else...;-)
       Well I'll let you know what happens...I'm done not getting any
       more...this is enough...;-)
       Hope you and yours have a very Happy New Year...;-)
... Sue, Scoobie Doo, Cry Baby, and GT will all a Happy New Year...;-)
