You're right, Jackie, parrots ARE noisy characters, especially when they're hormonal adolescents! And I think they do know what they're saying and doing. I'll bet every parrot owner has stories about the times their parrot has done or said something completely appropriate to the situation. Ours even always uses correct grammar! (Me: "You're a big green bird." Him: "I'm a big green bird!") Ha! You’re right, Jackie, parrots ARE noisy characters, especially when they’re hormonal adolescents!

They are noisy girls and it's astonishing at what they say and do, sometimes, like they KNOW what they're saying! Jackie Ben,

Mom has two older parrots, both female, one a Quaker and the other a Conure. They are noisy girls and it’s astonishing at what they say and do, sometimes, like they KNOW what they’re saying!

I have had meat last for over two years without being burned. The bags are a bit pricey, but the longer storage time and time saved wrapping it is worth it (we used to wrap it in plastic wrap, then two layers of freezer paper). Jackie,

I had no idea your mom has parrots! Please tell me what kind they are. We currently have a yellow-naped Amazon and three parakeets, but have had many types of parrot and other birds in the past. And please keep us appraised about your mushroom venture! We splurged and bought two shiitake logs for Christmas, since we've always wanted to grow our own mushrooms. I'd love to know what you're doing, and. of course, how it works out! Hi Jackie! I had no idea your mom has parrots! Please tell me what kind they are.
