Yes i would like to hear from Remy on this,.

Have a great time with your birds Justan

:Neglect, Starving, Suffering, abuse?? Waaaaay da minute, back up there feather heads. before we ALL jump on the "shame on you" wagon make no mistake, no one is suffering, starving or any of the other nice things you got pictured in your head.

:Allbeit I'm still green, but I've raised now 4 clutches of babies and not a one died or got sick. Heck, I even saved one from choking; and judging by their personalities and loving manor I would have to say none have ever felt abused.

:Although I can apprieciate your concern regarding the care of the birds; how about addressing the questions with answers assisting in solutions hmm? Isn't that what this forum is for anyways?

:I have been a part of this forum for over a year now and until these presumptuas coments have found it to be a good place to gather information from those who are expierenced and educated in such things.

:A few lines and a brief discription of a situation does not 'tell all' and ill informed judgments are unecessary and uneffective in solutions. I.E. I try and keep the crops full as would the parents. But it would seem they are "starving" and have "sour crop". I feed the parents a variety of foods broccoli, Romain, fruit etc. ("not potatoe chips") much of which they rarely will eat and seem to eat mostly the seed.

:Its true they see me for about an hour in the morning before work and two to three hours in the evenings and most of the day on the week ends outside that they sleep most of the time.

:Any other concerns you need clairification on just let me know.

:Anyways, if there's anyone who actually knows anything about my earlier questions an educated response is welcome...Is remy still around?

:Justan
