Hi Everyone - I'm Back

[marmitik]

Hi Everyone,

It's Tim from Victoria here. It has been a long time between drinks, but I'm back. Had a number of set backs - health and work - but am back online. :-)

Just a quick introduction to those I have not met, I started in aviculture when I was 8 with the humble budgie. Over the years I've had grass parakeets (bourkes, red rumps, golden shouldereds), lovebirds (peachfaces, masks), lorikeets (rainbow), cockatiels, gouldian finchs, eclectus, quakers, conures (green cheeked, blue throated), african greys and soon amazons.

Anyway, just thought I'd pop my head in and say 'Hi'. Hope to reconnect with old friends and make some new ones.

Tim

Hi Tim,

Welcome to the forum & welcome back

What birds do you own now Tim? ;D

[marmitik]

Hi Wilsta,

Sadly, I had to sell a large portion of my collection (even then it wasn't that substantial). I now only have a small number of species which I absolutely adore.

African Grey
Cockatiel
Quaker
Green Cheeked Conure
Blue Throated Conure
Eclectus
Welsh Harlequin X Indian Runner Duck (supplies me with a beautiful blue egg for brekkie everyday)
Central bearded dragon
Pugalier

Well hello Tim, welcome back. Love the sounds of all your pets ........ and the pugalier. LOL

[marmitik]

haha, yes the pugalier (cavalier kings charles x pug) is a little trouble maker. Absolutely adorable, but a trouble maker nonetheless. Great little guard dog.

Welcome Tim Sounds like you have a lovely bird collection, do you breed them? We'd love to see some piccies.

[marmitik]

Yes, I only have one pet bird at the moment...a naughty little green cheek called Frodo. All my others are either adolescent bonded pairs or breeding pairs.

I will post photos soon.
