Judy, I'm a little dense when it comes to birds because I've always been afraid of them, but do you take pet birds to a Vet or anything? Do they need vaccinations or when you can tell they don't feel good, can you take them to a Vet?

I am afraid of birds as well. My brother, Bobby has one her name is Sonny birdo.. (they thought she was a boy until she laid eggs). I was very young and was attacked by a bluejay. I had done nothing to her... didn't even see her before her pecking to my head began. I now understand that the weeping willow i was playing under must have had her babies in it, but to a child it was very frightening. My brother threatens to take Sonny out of her cage and I run!

I am so sorry, Judy. I know how hard it is to lose a pet. I hope both you and Skye are able to adapt well to a new freind.
