I'm going to start a new thread for Azizi(Azeezee). At least I think Azizi is the name we have decided on for our new Congo African Grey parrot. I believe it is unisex in African meaning precious/beloved. On the day we bought Azizi (5/22/2010), I kept calling it (not sure yet if male or female but think female and will be DNA tested the day we bring it home) precious. So, for now we are going with Azizi. We met the breeder at a Bird Expo. Azizi hatched 3/30/2010 so won't be ready to come home with us for about another three months. I have been busy preparing the nursery. We bought a cage at the Bird Expo and I've been buying toys and other things for it. I feel like a new mom that has come home from the hospital and had to leave the baby behind. But, we will be visiting and the breeder will be bringing Azizi to us. Azizi chose me. The breeder put the two greys on a table, I sat down and Azizi came right to me. It is sooooooo sweet. In the pic below Azizi is on the left.In the pic below the breeder had just finished giving Azizi formula and there is still formula on Azizi.And here I am cuddling Azizi. It was hard saying good bye to Azizi that day. Azizi got lots of kisses too.

Oh how cute! I cover my babies with kisses too. I think I've kissed Jake a million times since he has come to live with me.

Hi Gladys and Teacupsmommy. Please feel free to post pics of your family, pets, etc. I'd love to see them. By the way, chat here is open 24/7. I don't have much time to chat but it is there for others to use. I just am at a loss to understand why a chat needs to be locked and why so many mods, if any, are necessary. The only mods here are me and my husband.

Here are pictures we took of Azizi during our visit with her yesterday. She is sooooo sweet, loves to be cuddled, to get kisses and give them. She had just eaten some vegetables before we got there so had food all over her. She makes the cutest cooing/chirping sounds and was trying hard to say something. She really didn't want the breeder to take her away from us. The breeder did a DNA test while we were there. So, we should have those results back in a few days. But, everyone seems to think she is a girl. We will be visiting her again next Monday. I am so anxious to just get her home with us. She really likes Ron, just climbed right up on him. And, I'm sure the feeling is mutual

We had another visit with Azizi on Tuesday, June 22, 2010. I'm hoping that is our last visit, that the next time we go it will be to bring her home. She will be 3 months old the 30th. The breeder said she has been off her formula for a few days now. So, the breeder now is just watching to make sure she is doing ok off her formula, eating regular food. The breeder said we should be able to bring her home in a couple of weeks. I'm hoping she calls sooner and tells us to come get her. She is getting so big, really too big to step up on my small fingers. So she sits on my arm. LOL She is talking and whistling already. In the last picture where she is on Ron's shoulder she is chewing on a little leather foot toy I got her. It has a nut in it. She loves to chew on leather. She is sooooooo sweet! I had a hard time getting her off my arm to put her back in her cage when we left. I'm hoping the next pics I post of her will be taken here in her new home.

We brought Azizi home July 5th. These are some pics of her first day in her new home. The last one is her first breakfast with us on July 6th. Ron made the play stand for her. She loves to play with her little stacking toy and loves to chew on her little leather foot toy that has a nut in it. But, what she prefers most is to be held and cuddled. She's getting lots of that! In some of the pics you can see our two co ck atiels, Talker and Sunny. When I first introduced Talker to Azizi, I guess Talker was trying to say hi, started wolf whistling at Azizi. Azizi did not like that, puffed all up. LOL Azizi is a good whistler too.

Noelle and Abby were here this last Thursday. These are pics of Azizi's first visit with them. She acted as if she had always known them. She is such a sweet/gentle bird.
