Wow, you remember everything that my little girl has been thru don't you? Thats so sweet thanks :). I was talking about all that stuff just that other day. I am so thankful that she is doing good.. As a matter of fact this morning my mom was still sleeping and I went in the bathroom to shower so we hadn't gotten Rosie up yet and all of a sudden she started calling us really loud and really fast. I ran out of the bathroom and my Mom ran out of her room and she was just awake and ready to get up :lol:.. She usually stays in bed till we get her up but this morning she was wide awake and did NOT want to stay in bed. That was great because it confirmed for me that she was feeling really good :).. Shes napping right now, this is her first nap of the day..

She does have a rx for calcium. As a matter of fact I just got it refilled about a week and a half ago so she is all set on that.. I had never thought of buying her a light. I thought I read somewhere here at UAS that someone had one of those lights and it had burnt their birds eyes :shock: ...

That's because the light was used before the 'burn-in' period was out, and/or the light was too close. Not only that but the watt was rather high compared to others that are usually used.

I've been looking into getting a proper light for my birdies, too. Here's a link to an article about how to choose a proper light that looked good to me.
