Lol, I actually know a guy called Burt Reynolds :-) (not the actor)

I hope he doesn't look like my Burt (or the other BR) lol

Haha no, nothing like them at all... Bald and a bit overweight :-) Rather not post a picture without his permission first though

When I get my BCC (yes, I know you're all sick of me changing my mind), I'm going to get her this little sweater with the caterpillar. Too cute!!

The sweaters are mostly aimed at birds who pluck, to help keep them warm if they're bare-nekkid birdies and also prevent them from plucking their chest. The caterpillar sweater is adorable, but you'd better hope that you don't actually need it!

The photo contest is going to be MASSIVE this month!


It really is. You are going to have to start giving members are 2-3 entries limit or else there would be too many. Its a good thing. This forum has grown so much since i first joined.

I want to get this for my conure http://www.flightquarters.com/bird-diap ... large.html

The only thing is that I can't train him to wear anything because he doesn't have interest in training or millet.

You can train him if you can find something else that motivates him - it doesn't have to be food. Mims isn't very food driven but she likes to look in a mirror, so when I want to reward her for something I'll give her a peek. Dweezil likes food AND the mirror so I've been using whichever one is handy on him.

Instead of limiting the entries, I deal with the photo contest by giving people more votes. The more entries there are, the more votes you get. I haven't counted up the entries for this month yet, but I think I might have to give everybody 8 votes lol.

Will they realize that they are getting rewarded for that behavior? I feel like they don't really understand and its just a coincidence that the mirror or treats come when they do that behavior.
