I've been an off and on member for a few years, but I really do hope to read and post on here more often, so that I don't have to keep creating a new account.
I have what I assume is a male Quaker named Grimace, and an Amazon named Charlie.
I've had Grim for more than 8 years, but I don't know how old he was when he was found. If I had to guess, I'd say he's about 11 to 13 years old. He went through 2 households before I laid eyes on him and fell in love.
I think he's a male mainly because he has never once laid an egg.I don't plan on breeding him, so his/her gender is pretty irrelevant to me.
He's the sweetest jerk on the planet.
Charlie the Amazon loves to talk to me, but won't let me touch him. He's infatuated with my boyfriend, and he loves destroying walls.
The two birds don't ever get too close to each other and they have never attacked one another. They love to have screaming contests, especially if I have a headache.
Thanks for reading, have a good night.

Hi there! What you said about Charlie is so interesting...our Quaker, Chewy, is the exact same way. He loves my husband, but will only repeat things that I say and I can't touch him. "He's the sweetest jerk on the planet." Yes, I think that's a good description for the general Quaker population! LOL Welcome (back) to the forum!

Welcome! My grey is similar to Charlie and Chewy. She loves me, but will repeat words only from my husband, who can't touch her.

I think he's a yellow cheeked Amazon. I will post pics when I have time.
