Archie is a typical Timmeh lol, hates all the other birds still.... thats ok, long as he's happy

he's got his own special place in front room,by the hatch in kitchen,he hates sharing other room with the others

notice the chewed wood...he just doesn't like me to shut door when i'm cooking lol.

THE HATCH 12 MTHS PREVIOUS LOL,WITH WOODEN RUNNER

he eats really well, only thing he's not keen on his carrots, but he does have a little nibble.

he still loves to dig & hide under his paper lol...

Archie is the only bird out of the flock that Jaffa (puppy) runs away from  pmsl.

he loves cuddles, but only from mom

he can step up, but prefers to step up on a perch, but he doesn't mind me picking him up

anyone else he'd have there fingers lol.

he loves to be preened by me, always makes a cooing noise while hes havin his feathers done

and we both love our special one on one time

Lol !!! I have a timneh, he is just the same as Archie.
The smallest of my flock. but the one with the biggest attitude. He hates other birds too, and people.He has escaped from five different cages in the 10yrs Ive had him.
I came in the other day to Joe, my daughter, and my grandson, all standing in the kitchen, unable to get into the living room, and Max standing in the doorway, guarding the entrance. There was no way he was letting them in.
He is totally devoted to me, and no one else.Even to the point of scattering his seed in a frenzy if anyone dares to come near me when he is in his cage and cant get at them, to chase them off. I have tried all sorts to stop him being so overbonded, but he is not having any of it.
But just like Archie is with you, Max is a real snuggle bunny with me.

I did notice the chewed wood, hehe, but who cares!! I think everyone has chewed wood with parrots, I`ll never forget the day my Macaws chewed through the plaster and were hanging off the beading on the ceiling when suddenly....crash, the whole lot came down, birds n all!!

 

It`s sweet that he`s a mummys boy, you cans ee he loves you so much!!

Aww he's a lovely looking bird...is that first photo 'fuzzy head talking stance'?

I get nervous about the grey bonding thing when i mind my friends at this early stage in its life....4 weeks this time

Are timmehs and CAGs similar like alexs and ringnecks or is there a fundamental difference?

As the piccies on this site are just links to another site (LIke photobucket), maybe its the connection with the other site thats a problem....especially if it only certain peoples photos you can't see...belle are you using photobucket?  can you post the address of the piccy site you use so Mandy & Lorna can see if they are blocked? 

 

IT might be that your virus checker is blocking it as an undesirable/uncertificated site or your windows settings are set to Scaredy Setting

 

HAppens to me ALL the time...the internet censors here are very enthusiastic...I get loads of broken links on pages

Looking at those naked plucking birds might morally corrupt me
