It would be such a welcome blessing for you and me if you would put me on that list, please, PLEASE!!!

When you stop giving such false and misleading information I will in fact be able to stop reading your DRIBBLE


Untill then consider me to be your shadow, at least in the African Grey, Eclectus, Macaw and breeder forums.

For Heaven's Sake Dutch!!! Your posts are very reminiscent of the exerpts I have read from the Unibomber's Manifesto!! I think you should be spending your cyber time at a mental health support forum rather than here!!!

After two months with us here patty you have made know your habit of diagnosing not only birds online but now we can add humans to your list of specialty?

There's an old saying. "If it waddles like a duck, and quacks like a duck......."

I have posted very few items here and I already feel like trying another bird forum.

Don't blame ya one bit Harley's Dad. And my apologies for my bad behaviour. Do give us a chance though. There are a lot of very experienced and knowlegable people here who are always prepared to offer advice and opinions. It just seems to be a right of passage that you have at least one less than pleasant encounter with PH when you first begin to participate.

Don't you have an alligator to wrestle or a Kangaroo to chase Chatty Patty?

ROFLMAO!!! Oh Duke...you are such a riot!!!! Actually...all the skippys are down the back paddock, and the CROCS are down by the billabong sunning themselves and getting ready for tourist season (they get the best feeds then)....so I am having a couple of billys and then plan to go out lookin for a new Death Adder. The last one we had died after it bit me.

You make believe very well Chatty Patty, just like your knowledge in aviculture.

Ahhhhh...what an incredibly sweet thing to say! Ta Duke!

Why dont you two just shut up. The two of you are making this site bad. If you to keep this up . No one will want to come here. Its ok to post what you want .Just stop arguing. Please. Mark

Ummmm...excuse me Mark???? The way I read Duke's post he was actually being nice, and I didn't want to miss an opportunity to try and patch up old differences. If you read it differently, then my apologies.

So to bring us back on topic.....

I am convinced Harely does not like me. I will keep trying but I really feel it's a lost cause. I just hope he's happy.

All I can say is dont give up. some times it takes a while. especialy when you are his third owner. Be possitive and keep working with him. We are here to help with any questions I still think Sally Blanchards books may be some help. She was a bird trainer and worked with birds for year and has a good understanding of them. Mark

Harley's Dad, from everything I have read your are doing a fantastic job! And I know it can be frustrating when he doesn't responds as readily as you would like. Just give him time. After so much upheaval in his short life it is going to take some time for him to "let his guard down" with you. After all...everyone he has been attached to before has let him down.
