Can someone please help???

We recently got a baby Cinnamon mutation Green Cheek Conure. She (dna’d) can be very sweet, and loves head rubs. But when you put your hands in her cage she screeches like she thinks she is a bird of prey (thats what it reminds me of anyhow). Is it cuz she is a baby (hatched on 11/21/06) or do they always act like this? I am hoping she (Mecca) will grow out of it with age. And they have some very sharp beaks so we get startled and pull our hands away. The avaiary we got her from said that she was well socialized, yet when she first perched on us there she was all nippy and stuff. So I am not sure how much socialization they did with her. I know avairies are very busy with all the hand feeding, so I am a bit disapointed that she is not more tame. We drove four hours to get her, and we can barely handle her. Any green cheek owners have the same problem, and how did you over come it??
Thanks a lot

cockatiel rescue?

Hi i’m llooking for a cockatiel rescue. We took a hand feed out of a home because he was just in a cage by himself all day. We’d like to find a better home for him with other birds and someone who would play with him and let him out more. How do bird lovers deal with the fact that you can’t house break a bird?

Can someone please translate The Passionate Shepherd to His Love?

1Come live with me and be my love,
2And we will all the pleasures prove,
3That valleys, groves, hills, and fields,
4Woods, or steepy mountain yields.

5And we will sit upon the rocks,
6Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks,
7By shallow rivers, to whose falls
8Melodious birds sing madrigals.

9And I will make thee beds of roses,
10And a thousand fragrant posies,
11A cap of flowers and a kirtle
12Embroider’d all with leaves of myrtle:

13A gown made of the finest wool,
14Which from our pretty lambs we pull;
15Fair lined slippers for the cold,
16With buckles of the purest gold:

17A belt of straw and ivy buds,
18With coral clasps and amber studs;
19And if these pleasures may thee move,
20Come live with me and be my love.

21The shepherd swains shall dance and sing
22For thy delight each May morning;
23If these delights thy mind may move,
24Then live with me and be my love.

I have some questions on hand feeding baby birds.?

First off, my birds are Zebra Finches. I know it’s not very common for someone to hand feed Zebra Finches, but I brought home my pair about a week ago, and my little brother was absolutely thrilled and he wanted to know if he could hold them. So I figure why not? The female laid her first egg either last night or this morning, so I figure, now is the time to figure out if hand feeding is a bad idea or not. First off, I won’t be horribly disappointed if my attempts to make them trust humans is all for nothing. But my main question is this: If I hand feed them, does that mean it has to be ALL me, or do the parents still pitch in? I work full time at a pet store and go to school, so I can’t take on the full job of raising them. Second question, how old should they be when I start hand feeding them? ..You know, I have a lot of questions. Maybe if someone could just tell me what to do, how to do it, how often, etc, that would be great. Thanks.

Can someone PLEASE help me with the Mechanics of this poem!??

The Passionate Shepherd to His Love
by Christopher Marlowe
1599

Come live with me and be my love,
And we will all the pleasures prove
That valleys, groves, hills, and fields
Woods or steepy mountain yields

And we will sit upon the rocks,
Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks
By shallow rivers to whose falls
Melodious birds sing madrigals.

And I will make thee beds of roses
And a thousand fragrant posies,
A cap of flower, and a kirtle
Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle;

A gown made of the finest wool
Which from our pretty lambs we pull;
Fair lined slippers for the cold
With buckles of the purest gold;

A belt of straw and ivy buds,
With coral clasps and amber studs;
And if these pleasures may thee move,
Come live with me and be my love.

The shepherds’ swains shall dance and sing
For thy delight each May morning:
If these delights thy mind may move,
Then live with me and be my love
