I would just like to thank you for allowing these three characters to join our family.
They are each so unique, and their own personalities have just blossomed under your
care. You obviously have a special way with them that I can only hope to understand
someday.
Dilbert has been just awesome from day one. He has a habit of yelling at me if I take
too long getting to him. Even though just a baby, he is capable of sitting with me
quietly for hours and just watching what I do. He is a piggy with the carrots and is a
“closet talker”. He won’t talk to me, but talks away when he eats…very, very quietly.
Skittles is an absolute joy. I enjoy Dilbert so much, that I couldn’t pass up a Sun
Conure baby of yours. She has been SO affectionate, and doesn’t even know how to
bite hard. She’s a smart little one, too. The small cage we have at our trailer cannot
keep her confined. She’s figured out how to lift the doors to come be with her people.
She loves riding in the car. She looks out the window and settles down so well when in
the sun. So far she loves everybody she meets.
Sydney captured my heart from the moment I saw her. She has the prettiest eyes I have
ever seen, with the sweetest expression. She is the most vocal and the most active of
them all. She is beautiful inside and out, but can’t seem to get enough spray millet!
She nibbles my neck constantly and shows no fear of the dogs. Actually none of them
do. In fact, the dogs may just be a bit intimidated by them! Those sharp beaks are
tough on doggie noses…
Thank you for caring so much for these birds. You really take the time and care for
them so that they may become a valued family member.

We received your lovely card and the precious baby pictures in the mail yesterday. What a class act you are. It was nice being
in your home where even a blind person could see that lots of love and attention are given to each living creature. You home
was clean and well organized. You and you partner have the stuff it takes to make a good business. I have already given out
one of your cards.
We couldn't be more pleased with Honey (the darker one) and Sugar. They are lovely. Both are starting to get vocal and they
seem to like getting out of their cage. We are in love. Thank you Christine for making that possible. You are a blessing.
Until next time, your fan...

I wish to express my thanks for all the wonderful lovebirds (blue black-masked,
green black-masked, and cobalt blue pastel) purchased from you. Of course all
birds have their personalities but the cobalt blue one is exceptionally docile and
still likes to sit on my palm like it did on yours.
I have bestowed on the cobalt blue pastel lovebird the name "Lilac" and its color
is just mesmerizing. It stepped up for me readily inside its cage and I do not have
to worry about its eating habit as you have already let it get used to the pelleted
diet.
Many thanks again and I am tempted to get another one of your pastels when they
hatched and of course, I am looking forward to your nice and colourful Bourke
parakeet in the near future.
I will talk to you soon and I enjoy doing business with The Feather Coop (of
course, Mama Christine).
Sincerely,

This is his 1st trip to the beach! He is very spoiled. When Leah gets out of his sight he
yells..(sings) for her. I imagine someday he will call her name instead. Around 7 every
night he goes crazy for her to hold him. He tries to get out of his cage and even lifts the
cage door up until Leah takes him out so he doesn't hurt himself. Then she just holds him
and scratches his head. When he falls asleep she wraps him in a handkerchief and puts him
to bed in a basket (his bed) in his cage.
...we have given your website out to a friend who would love to have a Kiwi of their
own....I'm still working on my husband with a Sun Conure for me :) He's still adjusting to
Kiwi. Kiwi wasn't suppose to go to our beach place with us but we convinced my husband
he was still too much of a baby for someone else to watch him...so off Leah went to get a
smaller cage for trips...now I think he'll go all the time.

Oh-my-gosh, I love Franklin (a.k.a. Frankie, my new parrotlet). He's so
great. And you did a WONDERFUL job taming him! He comes when I
call him, always steps up, and is never afraid to come out of his cage.
We got him ladders, which are absolutely his favorite thing. I put a treat
block at the top of one to start with and I think he thinks he should now
always get a treat when he climbs to the top. I've been meaning to send
you pictures, but I keep forgetting and now I'm at work without my
camera. He absolutely loves kisses and stitches (sp? aka petting). He is
slowly eating new food, like broccoli, but mainly he loves his spray
millet and solid food that you had him on. I am trying to teach him to
say "Frankie" even though I know he's a little young and may never
learn to talk. Now, every time I say "Frankie" I get two chips back, and
the louder I say it t he louder he chirps. I think he misses his flying
feathers. His favorite game is to climb to the top of you (shoulder, head,
whatever), fly (coast) down to the floor, and then run (literally,

It was really nice to meet you Sunday. Wanted to let you know that
Sprite has settled in quite well, when we got home she hopped right into the
cage and started preening Piper. The two of them have been having a great
time playing together and I've seen them sleeping cuddled together, SO
cute!
Sprite is a wonderful little bird and I'll be recommending The Feathered Coop to
everyone! Thank you for everything.

I would like to express my thanks to you for Bernard who is a wonderful Parrotlet. You
did a great job hand training him. Bernard is a very vocal and energetic Parrotlet. He
loves riding around on my shoulder or head when I get home from school. He also like
doing my homework with me. He takes my pen or pencil and when I get a new one he
takes that too. Hes very funny. He also enjoys looking out the window at the other birds
and whistles to them. Which sounds so cool. He is a little bird with a BIG personalty.
Thank you again for all your hard work to make Bernard as wonderful as he is.
Sincerely,
Tyler D.

he's fast!) back to you until you pick him up and he can do it all over again. One ladder goes from the floor to the bottom of his
cage (about 2 feet). He will climb up it, fly down, and repeat several times. Last night it was about 7 (almost his bedtime) and I
think we were both tired. He looked like he had heavy eyes and wasn't much in the mood to play and he just sat on my finger and I
accidentally fell asleep. My husband was awake and moving throughout the house and he said Frankie just sat there for 30 minutes
without jumping down or anything until I woke up. He's to the point now where if we are in the room, he has to be out of his cage,
otherwise he seems quite content with his cage.

Just wanted to drop you a note and let you know how well Tweet-Tweet & Sunny are doing. We have
had them for just shy of 1 year and they are such a big part of our family we all enjoy them so much.
They are due to go to the vet to have a check-up and wings clipped next week. Both my daughters
truly love them. I just wanted to e-mail you some recent photo's to let you know how great they truly
are. Even without there wings clipped they will still usually just hang out with the girls. Thanks for
the wonderful birds.
