Default Candy

Candy is a 7 month old WBC who we just brought home. She has been here for a week and a half and is settling in just fine. She loves her cage and toys and eats everything I give her. Her favorite place is on top of her cage on the playstand. She is a sweet bird, actually fairly quiet but getting more "Caiquelike" everyday. She doesn't seem to even notice when the others start squawking and screaming which is a good thing. She is a smart bird. She figured out how to escape from a cage that 4 other birds have been in. She not only managed to get a door open, she slipped out and closed and latched the door. After the third time we found her on her palystand with all the doors latched, we had to spy to see how she was doing it.



She is a sweetie and she loves to give kisses and likes to have me get all the pin feathers on her neck and head.

Kathie- We were there on Sat. At least Candy and I were. Peter was sick. I was there early. I was just ready to leave when you all got there and then everybody was busy, busy, busy. You guys need to get a gram scale because they screwed up her weight. They calculated she weighed 131 grams. I know my balance is right and she weighed 139.5 at home earlier in the day and when I got home Saturday. She was 140.7 the day we brought her home.
She is a happy bird and a lot quieter than Tobie was.
