but hers was not ready to come off. Due to dehydration and running
risk of infection, we had to help her. |

Lovebirds on the loose Trixie.
Look out!
Ya I know
Pippin,
there's
one right in front of me |
 |
 |
Nice
and cosy!
Don't
worry Dakota ......soon were gonna have us some of those things called
feathers! |
 |
 |
So come on folks,
admit it
I'm one handsome,
intelligent looking
dude! |
 |
 |
Surely that is not Jo coming
at me again with that wet sponge! |
 |
 |
Hide me Pippin, Quick
She's back AGAIN with that dang
wet sponge! So what we make a mess.
She's gonna get you next, look
out!
Well Now She's Talking!! Finally Dug Out my Bibs!
|
 |
 |
See us now. Lou is
finally telling us we are getting cute! Course Jo gets all upset, as
she thinks we have been adorable since day 1! |
 |
 |
What a difference two
days makes hey folks! See how much feathers I got on my head now!
(Dakota and Pippin)
Two days later and I got
me a full head of feathers! Jo gots us in this little contraption
whilst she cleans our brooder. I'm not too impressed! |
 |
 |
Pippin well on her way
to being all growed up.
Getting some snuggles
in Canada Day Weekend. |
 |
 |
TRIPLET SNUGGLES
And this is what Dakota
looks like after supper! Good side of this is they love having their
faces washed with a nice warm cloth! |
 |
 |
See how we've grown!
We are now maturing almost on a daily basis and just amazing Jo.
Jo was changing their
dirty perch today and Dakota was watching her hand and her every move.
Not with fear or nervousness, just out of sheer intelligence Jo says and
being so inquisitive. |
 |
 |
Jo, Jo's friend and
bird-sitter gets to play with all of us, whilst Jo tries to get us washed up
from supper. Jo loves coming to visit us.
Trixie, well
she hates getting washed up after supper, UNLESS she is getting
snugged at the same time that is. Dakota, well he almost pushes to get
to the washcloth. He LOVES it, nice and warm!!! Jo is spoon
feeding us and man oh man, you ain't seen a mess, till you saw us! Well ya,
I guess you have. Dakota above here! |
 |
 |
Half hour to feed
them, one hour to clean them, perch, walls, floor, me up!!
Dakota, who
ALWAYS has to be first, decided I wasn’t fast enough tonight, so jumped
right into the dish, then pranced up and down the perch before I even had
the other two out of the cage to eat! As you can see he is looking pretty
proud of himself
|
 |
 |
Dakota who must have rolled this
pea around in his mouth for half an hour after getting it out of pod.
I don't think he ever did eat it! |
 |
 |
Trixie and Pippin
Pippin's
favorate hang out. Sittin in the foot toy basket! |
 |
 |
So now your probably wondering
why Jo has stuck one of our babies pictures way down on the page here.
Well cuz, it's NOT us!
That would be Oscar and
Joey, two more little baby hahners!! |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
So as you can see we LOVE our baths! Big huge bowl of water sitting on
the floor for us to bath and what do we do, all three jump into one weenzie
dish on the side of the cage, the very minute Jo puts it up!! It was
quite entertaining to watch us. Today we got our first spray mist.
Jo figured we loved water that much, a hot day, we needed a mist. All
wings up immediately, flapping and quivering we loved every minute of
it as you can see! |
 |
 |
As you can see folks, Jessica was here to visit and just
adored the Hahns. This little girl is our neighbor's grand daughter
for you folks that have not followed the Journal over the years. She
has loved Jo's birds since she was still in diapers and as you can see, it
has not deminished. She never ever fails to spend as much time as she
can visiting Jo and the babies. Jo thoroughly enjoys their visits,
seeing her and her brother's always happy, smilely faces. We
missed getting pictures of Lucas's smiles this visit. We just have
pictures you will see of linnies sitting on his lap, posted in
the Journal. |

Here folks we have Shazza on his way down to get under the tap for a nice
fresh bath.
On the other side we have Higgins. Meki and Higgins sizing each
other up. Please know there is a screen in between these two!!!

 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 Me again. I
don't fool around, I want a snack, I just get right in! |
 Bet ya any
treat, you thought I was Shazza, with those big, meltie eyes. WRONG, I'm
Joey and just oh so sweet! |
Shazza,
big guy such as he thinks he is, taking control and trying to give Oscar a
sample of his supper! |
 
Well Jo you
did it once again!!!!! When I fell in love and
brought JoJo home from your
place last December I thought I had the most perfect bird in the
world. I have felt that way now for almost a year. BUT it
turns out there is actually
TWO perfect birds
 in
the world and they are now both in my home. Higgins is a
dreamboat. From the moment he came through the door he has been
the most loving, calm but comical, busy little boy. When I
opened the door on his carrier he flew right to me and it's been
that way ever since. Nothing bothers him with the exception of
being put back in his cage at night ROFLOL. Then we have a
"catch me if you can" game as he runs around the room :).
Outside of the bedtime ritual, he is so so good at his step
ups. Even when he is in the middle of something ya knowwww he
doesn't want to leave, he will still put his little foot out to
step up the moment I tell him too. He and JoJo have fast become
best buds which just makes my life perfect. It so warms my
heart to see them together. Now these two wonderful birds
can be pals forever :). JoJo is an extremely smart bird but I
have never seen the likes of Higgins intelligence LOL. He acts
like he is always studying things, be it my face, a toy, or a
piece of food before he eats it LOL. Whenever I speak to
Higgins, Higgins will make a few honking sounds like he is
responding back to me. AND THEN as if life wasn't already ideal
and could get no better..... what does Higgins do but starts
talking LOL. Last night when I came into the room and said
where's Higgins, he said "Hello". First time it happened I
thought Nahhhh he can't be talking already but sure enough he
did it two more times during the evening LOL :) it is something
else to be always greeted so warmly LOL. When I was talking to
a friend on the phone and was laughing at something that
was said, Higgins started to laugh as well :), it was just too
cute. Then when it was time to go to bed. I told the guys it
was nite nite time. Well JoJo as usually told me "Nite Nite"
and then didn't Higgins say "Nite". So I now have two perfect
guys who will keep me company and talk to me. My most favourite
part of the day now is when I'm sitting at my computer reading
my emails with Higgins and JoJo sitting on my shoulder
:>
There is just no way I would ever get
a bird from anyone else, I would truly be setting myself up for
disappointment if I did, as I would never find anyone who could
raise a better friend for me, this has been proven to me over
and over again. JoJo turned a year in August and has never once
been anything but a true joy of my life and I truly believe it
will be like that forever. Higgins is starting down the same
loving path. I totally expect him to be a true joy and
companioin for the rest of my life as well.
Indebted to you forever,
Gail

When Lesley and I first saw these wonderful birds at your house, well at
first I was a little skeptical, but when I heard “Bella” formerly
‘Pippin’ make that little cry of hers, my heart was stolen by something
so small and so sweet. I do not regret for one minute getting this
Little Macaw, she is my little girl and I love her. She goes everywhere
on my shoulder within the house, curious is not the word, she has to
check everything out, and make sure it meets her high standards of taste
and/or neatness. She is exactly what you said she would be, Loving,
Curious, and a Perfect Little Lady on my shoulder, I have not
experienced the fun of her taking a bath yet, but, that is because she
is so busy following me around sitting on my shoulder. I learn something
new about these gorgeous birds every day, but, the main thing that I
have learned is that I WILL BE BUYING MORE BIRDS FROM YOU AND LOUIS!!!!
If anyone asks, I will highly recommend you and your Aviary, the work
you do to raise these little angels is nothing short of absolutely
outstanding!!
Thank-You so much for letting Bella come into my Life, I Love
her to death, now I have to train her to accept the Feather Tether, but,
with the work you have already done with her, I will not have any
problems with that. Our Love to You and All your little Angels there……
J
All
our Love;
Lesley & Terry Antle

I bought 2 breeding lovebirds from Joanne a while back, and have
3 beautiful Babies from them.....
I had a senegal at the time but there was a terrible accident
and I lost him, he was my baby..............so I knew Joanne had
baby hahns, even though I didn't know anything or not much about
them.......I decided I wanted one of them so I bought my little
Sweetie Shazza!!............Well he finely came home last friday...
and from the time he came out of his crate he has been a
Joy....I am so impressed with him I would LOVE to get another
one!!.....(maybe later)......they are smart, nothing really
bothers Shazza other than when I take Azibo in my bedroom and
spend time with him....Shazza ends up in Azibo's cage and starts
eating Azibo's food (pellets)....
Shazza would live on my shoulder if I would allow him
to..........he has the best personility, hasn't tried to nip or
anything........He is an amazing new baby, who will stop me from
working every chance he has.....
Joanne Thanks so much he is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I could afford One of the other babies I would......but I
can't afford any more time...........eheheheheh
