The Acuff Zoo

3 Parrots, 2 Humans, and 1 House

Halloween







I love Halloween. When else can you dress up and get free candy?! Carnival thing at church tonight and the spening tomorrow hanging with Mistie and visiting my lil sis for her birthday. Then a nice relaxing night with the birdies :D

Spose I should get to work now.

Pirate fun




Took the fids to Pirate Days in our home city. It was pretty awesome. We all got dressed up and were the only group with real parrots lol. Alot of people recognized us from walking with them everywhere :) Zeke is still kinda freaked out about the stroller, so I was a bad mommy and let him ride on my shoulder half the day where he clung for dear life. Cairo rode in the stroller singing and screaming all day from excitement :D Izzy was on her leash like always and flew around a bit to show off for people. Normal response: " your bird is on a leash?!". Mistie took some pics of the fids for us too. And yes, the picture posted with this entry is from the festival...they were doing tattoos on the spot.

Rained out




I love the State Fair of Texas. So much to look at, and eat :)

Toney and I went to the Fair yesterday with my cousin and his girlfriend. It was great, till it started raining. Curse you weatherman for predicting clear skys. We left after about 4 hours there since we were cold and wet.

In other news: Cairo has gained much confidence in his flying abilities. He will fly in circles just because he can now. Zeke trys to fly really hard but he still hasn't lost his clipped feathers and is too afraid to let go of my hand.

That's all for now :)

Newsflash!




Cairo turned 2 on Saturday the 3rd :) he flys very well now and has become less bitey. We bought him a treat bag from Tree Top and he got lots of attention and treats.

In other news, I discovered how to make a pen out of large feathers. Very fun to write with at work.
