B-Jay has been great lately. He is sharing a cage with Flip and is eating his pellets like a pro. The vet kept bothering me about
both birds being underweight that I was forced to convert them to all pellets. B-Jay taught Flip how to eat pellets and in
return, Flip taught B-Jay how to eat spinach, kale, and Cheerios. Every week I give them seed as a treat. The birds cuddle
together but do not preen or court each other. It's been over a month since we got B-Jay and he has still not bitten anybody. I
never knew the amazing benefits of getting a hand-raised bird. He does not liked to be petted, though. Unlike Flip who could
go for a back or head scratch. You can't pet Flip on his stomach, though, because he will step onto your finger. Both birds
fight for the swing perch, which is why we had to get a bigger one. B-Jay is the quiet and laid back one, while Flip is the loud
and outgoing one. My mom thinks that she might be allergic to the birds. Just a sneezing kind of allergic. But unless they make
her have serious allergic reactions, we have no intention of doing anything extreme. I told her "If the birds go, I go too." I
can't explain how much I love these budgies. But you probably know, as you are the owner of toos, macaws, amazons, and
pretty much everything else! I do have to be better, though about cleaning up after them. They poop so much!

Just a short note to tell you how much we love our birds. They are great I did
not know how much I would like them but I really do. Thank you for being
such a good bird breeder we looked at them at pet stores and they don't even
compare to the shape ours is in. If you would like to you can put the picture
I sent you on your happy homes It would be kind of cool to see them
there.
Thanks Again,
The Keplinger's
By watching this video, you'll see that our baby parakeet is doing fine. It's eating good and spoiled rotten. We love it like a family
member.
Thanks again for everything. We're still advertising.
Sincerely,
The Delcore's

You will not believe what this lady does to me. First she takes me from your nice
safe aviary to the vet. We get to "her" house which she says is now also "MY
HOUSE" and she shows me this huge cage - well huge to me. I start to get used to
the place when my new Mommy decides that we should take a trip to North Carolina
to see someone and there will be grandchildren there (whatever they are). The trip
was great. I finally got out of the little cage and my Mom let me sit in her hair most
of the way to North Carolina. I found out that grandchildren are pretty cool. The
really still ones let me sit on their shoulder and that was nice. Mom and I made it
back home then I helped Mom decorate a "Christmas Tree" - whatever that is. She
liked it so I guess it is good. Mom is trying to teach me to get on her finger but I am
resisting. I just want to crawl on her neck and sit in her hair. Silly woman! We get
along really well. I am training her and she is adapting pretty good. I sent you a
photo of me trying to take a little breather in the shower. My mom shows up with the
camera at the darnest times. A girl can't even get a shower in peace these days.

Thank you so much for your card and for Duckie's pictures! We put them in his baby book. He's adjusting well and is very spoiled.
We are all very happy with him and I am so tickled I got a baby from you. Not only is he amazingly tame (and a bit of a couch
potato) but I do so appreciate you answering my questions.

I just got back from the Exotic Pet Clinic in Springfield for Bundys' wellness exam. The vet said he's in great shape.
I just wanted to let you know that some of the people there asked me where I got Bundy and when I mentioned you, they all had
heard of you and said they heard good things about you.
Just thought you might like to hear that. If I was that famous I would want to know too! :)

I wanted to thank you for the lovebird pics you sent me. She is absolutely beautiful!! We love her! She is the dearest, sweetest
little pet! We take her all around the house with us even to our card games, phase 10, etc. We are glad to know she is a female.
Now maybe Marjorie and I can agree on her name. We ordered her pet food from PA where you told us and made an appt at the
vet on Opossum Pike for Friday. We can't believe how you have thought of everything, even her first baby feathers. You know
our questions before we ask. You do everything so professionally and with such a warm, personal touch. Your are tremendously
knowledgeable and thank for all the help you have given us so willingly. You are an expert bird breeder and I know we would
have search forever to find another one as great as you! We consider ourselves extremely lucky to have found you, our lovebird,
and know all the birds that cross your path are in the best of hands.
God Bless!

Hi Christine,
I wanted to take a minute and thank you so very much for the wonderfully sweet
baby bird we adopted from you.
Jet has been an absolute joy since we brought him home, and has spent very little
time in his huge new cage! In fact, we have to take turns snuggling and holding
him, as he is very much in demand by us all! He has fit in nicely with our pets, and
the dogs are losing their interest in him, fortunately! They were a little too curious
about him at first! Overall, I think they are just jealous of all the attention Jet is
receiving.

Hi Christine .. Just wanted to send a quick note to let you know it was such a pleasure meeting you, as well as spending time at
your "coop" ... You have a great set up and I so much appreciate the extra effort you take to ensure your customers are satisfied
with their new addition. The card, first wing clippings, all the extra info on the wing and nail clippings, etc. It's completely
obvious that you put your heart and soul into your birds and your business. You will definitely be hearing from / see me again!
Have a great day!

I attached a picture of their cage and a picture of B-Jay investigating a shelf. You
are a great breeder who should just keep doing what she's doing because it is
extraordinarily great. Thank you so much.

I hope you and the rest of the family and birds are doing fine. I am loving life here in Greenbelt. Mom took me on another trip
recently to see some her best friend and family in Williamsburg. They are all bird people so none of them tried to mess with me.
I just wanted my Mom's hair and to be comfortable. Mom makes me go to bed at night and puts me in my Happy Hut.
Sometimes I come back out after she leaves the room and I sleep on my swing. I have to keep Mom in line and let her know that
I can only be pushed so far. I quit eating the little carrots so Mom is now grating them for me. This is so much better than
having to try to keep that carrot still while I tried to bite pieces out of it. You have got to tell the other birds that getting one of
these Moms is great - you can get them to do all sorts of things they never dreamed they would do. Well gotta go now Mom wants
to use the computer - again.
Love,
"martha"
Dear Miss Christine,
I love my bird very, very, very, very, very much. Thank you, Miss Christine for this good bird. I love him to pieces. That bird is
good because when I came in to Grama’s house this morning I got him out and he loved me right away. I brought him into the
kitchen. He flew on the ground and he had a p-a-r-t-y with me. I don’t want to go to school because I want to stay home and
love on him. I will take good care of him for ever and ever!
Thank you, again.
Love,
TJ (Adopted an American Parakeet)
P.S. His name is JT. I hope people don’t get us mixed up
I will happily recommend anyone contemplating adding a bird to their family to contact you. You are a wealth of knowledge and
your gentle, loving touch is obvious in the preciousness of this sweet baby bird.
Thanks again, and we will keep you posted with pictures as Jet grows.
Take care,
Lisa, Nick & all the Sanders boys

Hi Christine!!!
I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to send you an update on our
little Oliver. He is doing GREAT!! He has the sweetest and
cutest personality ever!! He loves his toys (and he has lots of
them) and he’s developing quite an adorable relationship with
our dog, Duke! (always under STRICT supervision of course!)
Oliver likes to preen Duke’s fur and play with his whiskers! He
even enjoys an occasional piggy-back ride!
By the way, thanks for the baby pics! That was so thoughtful of
you! It’s funny, I still find myself checking your website every
Monday to see your new babies. I miss our communications!!
Here are some pictures!! Thanks again for everything! Oliver is
everything I’d hoped for & more!!

Just wanted to let you know how well Gus is doing at home with Jay and I! He was
eating by the second day,and said his first post-feathered-coop word by Monday
evening! Any time I'm home he's out of his cage, and he is really starting to feel
comfortable in the new
space. Now he's starting to venture off my shoulder into new territory. I got him a
little play stand with all sorts of bells and ladders, etc. It's made of wood. So far he
just sits on the rope, but maybe he'll take to it. Either way, it has become his little
perch when we can't be holding him.
You did a remarkable job raising him (as I'm sure you do with all your birds). He's all
I talk about at work! So snuggly! People don't believe a bird can be snuggly but if
they met Gus they'd see it.

Please don't try this at home...Your dog may not be as good as Duke is...

Hi Christine,
I can't believe it's been a month already. We finally decided on a name for our baby.
About a week after we brought him home my Mom had the idea of naming him after my
Dad (Vincent) who passed away 5 years ago. My Dad loved all animals, and I know he
would have gotten a kick out of playing with Vince. He is a wonderful addition to our
family, and it only took Shelly a day or two to become very attached to him, and my 13
year old son, Kevin, thinks Vince is very cool. He travels with us to my Mom's house to
visit and he has already been to Ocean City once, and we are going to take him again in
a couple weeks. He gets along great with all of our family and friends - he will step up
on anyone's finger without hesitation. He is the main attraction where ever we go. He
loves to be held and taken for walks. We sit outside on the deck with him just about
everyday. He loves sitting in the sun, taking baths and watching and listening to the
birds flying overhead. He also loves playing around on the outside of his cage. We all
truly love him. He keeps us entertained for hours at a time. So far we have not had any
issues - all good news!!!!! Thank you so much for taking such good care of him when he
was a little baby, he is definitely a very healthy, beautiful and affectionate bird.
Thanks again for all you do. I will keep you posted with new pictures.
Take care & have a great summer,
Chris, Sean, Shelly & Kevin

Just touching base about Joey, born September 1, 2006. He is so happy! In fact, he's so
happy to see the first one home from work he looks like he might have a stroke or
something. Very, very affectionate and playful, like a puppy still. I wonder how long it
takes for parrotlets to grow out of that terrible twos phase - - - oh well. He has claimed
three plastic drinking cups as his - and insists they be put where he can play with them.
Then he throws them on the floor - it probably makes him feel powerful or butch to move
something ten times his size around like that.
He does tricks - he lays on his back (for entertainment and for raspberries), balances on
the tip of three fingers on his back, and after a one, two, three...he hangs by one foot.
He is really smart - he definitely knows what no means but only obeys when he feels like
being good. Usually he is playing so hard, frantic is a good word - flying and singing
back and forth from the dining room to the kitchen. I just wanted you to know he is one
happy bird and is so affectionate. Yesterday he offered me seed (sounds gross doesn't
it?) for the first time and I was so flattered (but politely declined)...
Take care!
Mark & Ron
Update...
We were playing "side show" yesterday and got this picture of Joey (preparing to
perform before the crowned heads of Europe). He stayed like that for the length of time
it took to keep changing the settings on the camera, different angles, etc. When I was
done he didn't get up till I gave him a little kiss on the beak and said "ALL DONE!"
Then he flew to the windowsill and screamed at me for about five minutes . . .

Hi Christine,
Just wanted to let you know how Paulie is doing. He is very affectionate and
playful. When I go to the kitchen, he flies onto the ground and walks over to me.
He really likes the natural seashells from bird toys. He isn't aggressive towards
my cockatiels, but my cockatiels freak out when they seem him. I want to thank
you for all the hard work you did raising these quaker parrots. You really take
the time to care for these birds so they become the most wonderful pets. Thank
you so much!

Thanks so much! We love having him as a part of our family. Something I get a chuckle out of...when we discussed
getting him we agreed that his cage would NOT be in the bedroom. Well, we've brought it up to the bedroom with
us every night so far:) So much for that idea.
Talk soon - Carrie
And they made it to You Tube...
