Hey Val,

Quincy is doing great. He is quite a entertaining little guy. He loves to cuddle. When i'm watching tv or movies he's got to be right with me. He absolutely loves his food. Bananas are defiantly his favourite or anything I have he wants. Giggles is doing good he gets a little jealous sometimes. When quincy is out he talks an talks an talks. He's still getting lots of attention he just has to share it now. lol. I attached a couple pictures with this email of Quincy.

Jenna

Hello Val,

I hope you didn't think we fell off the face of the earth; I took these Pics this morning! She is getting bigger and she is getting to be a bigger sooky, when it comes to me...lol.
I have her chase me around the kitchen table and then I stop and tap my nails on the floor and she runs even faster to get to me and then she lets me tickle her and she rolls over so I can get her belly. She has been in the shower with me now twice, she stays on my arm and I just let the water spray off me onto her, just getting her use to it. I actually find her to be quiet UNLESS I have been at work and come home as soon as she sees me she lets out this loud hello! So I know shes there...lol, other than that She is usually quiet. She can untie knots now, we discovered that yesterday...lol she untied the knot in billys hoodie, so I took a shoe lace and we spent a long time tying and untying it lol, smart cookie!
Her and Kumar are fine now. Kumar wants to be with me more since we got Mcawlie.lol.

Hope you have a Great Day. Talk soon.

Billie

Well, Little Miss Phoenix is settling in just fine. She steps up for me with little hesitation. She's been kissing me, checking out my teeth, lips (and my daughter adds "wrinkles") and muttering little noises. I've been able to stroke her almost all over her body. She's a darling and I love her! So far, only my daughter and I are home and the dog (Bichon, "Hogan" who's 15). Others to arrive home in 2-3 hours.

Karen …





… My husband came home, walked up to her cage, put his face up to the bars and softly said hello to her. She came over to the bars immediately, poked her beak through and kissed him. Then she continued to mutter. She also took to my son right away and crawled onto his shoulder. She's not shy at all. Almost every time she is spoken to, she mutters something back.

Hey Val,

Thank you for all the great advice last time it really helped a lot! Coco is as sweet as ever, I love him so much, and Sage does too. He is a good boy and is very social with guests at my home. We are all moving Jan 1, to New jersey in a beautiful apartment where the boys will have a wonderful view of the river and New York city!!

Sage use to only like the water in his dish or in the sink but since he seen Coco in the shower every other day he has decided to love the water too! They both take long showers and they love it, its like their relaxing massage time haha.

Thanks for everything Coco is a perfect addition to my family and I look forward to many great years with him!

Take care

Sincerely
Miranda

HI VAL!!

JUST A QUICK NOTE FROM SOME VERRRY HAPPY CUSTOMERS! I HAVE SOME PICTURES FOR YOUR SITE IF YOU WISH TO USE THEM. THIS IS NICK AND TIKKA ENJOYING A BOOK. APPARENTLY SHE'S AN R.L. STEIN FAN TOO! WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT SHE'D LEARN TO READ? LOL CHRYSTAL AND GORDON

Ivy

Ivy is a wonderful baby, very gentle, easy going and playful and she is fitting right in. I appreciate the effort you've put into raising and socializing the babies, it really shows. She has had a lot of company and she is very friendly and inquisitive. She is absolutely wonderful!!

Nancy

Hi Val,

This is me and Worsie. My birds are not birds, they are part of my family and they are respected and loved as children. I have never received a baby parrot in a more perfect condition. I was impressed by the professional and perfect manner in which he was send by air. Thank you for your willingness to breed these wonderful creatures and to bring joy into the lives of others In God's parrots I see the perfect works of His hands and proof of design by a Creator.

Keep up the good work

Anton

Worsie with all his new friends...

Hi Val,

Ginger arrived! She is beautiful and very cute, very friendly; she is not scared at all. She came to me for a head scratch, she let me hold her. Right now my daughter is feeding her with nuts; she looks like she is part of our family already!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

I will keep in touch.

Agnes

Hey Val,

Ginger is absolutely wonderful, she is very beautiful and friendly, looks like she's got potential to be very smart. She adjusted very well to our family she's accepted all of us from the very beginning. I am defiantly a very satisfied customer!

Thanks,

Agnes!!

Hi Val.

Pedro is quite a character. I love him so much, and so does everybody who meets him. His feathers are gorgeous.

Val I couldn't have found a better breeder than you. All the birds that come from Cuckoos Nest Aviary are the kind of bird(s) that you would want to have. Anybody that wants to have a social companion, I recommend you choose the Cuckoos Nest Aviary, and NEVER buy a parrot from a pet store! Why would you go to a pet store when Val has a very clean aviary, and the right equipment to breed, also, your parrot is guaranteed healthy.

Val I don't know how to thank you. You aren't only Pedro's breeder, you have become a friend of mine, and to my family. Thanks so much for everything you have done to help, you have really made this much easier:)

Hi Val,

Just to say hi and let you know how Willow is making out. She is doing great, buddies with the all of us now even the dog and some of our friends. At first she only wanted to be with me, I guess because I was home stock trading and therefore around her the most. But now she is attached to Roberta and Lauren just as much.

She has a vocabulary of over 50 words now and growing. Sometimes she only has to hear something once and she will repeat it. Like when Roberta once yelled at Lauren to turn the music down now she says "turn it down" If she is in her cage with the door open and you call her she will fly to the floor then come right to you. When let out she will follow you around like a dog but loves to be on your shoulder the most. The bath thing is no problem now but we have to put more effort into the potty training to see if she will learn it. Anyway she is a wonderful little pet and quite the nutcase at times. She likes to pull the bell off her mirror and then will spend a lot of time trying to hook it back on. Down to the bottom of the cage to get the bell, then back up with it and try and hook it back on. Then she drops it and back down she goes over and over again. Finally she will take it over and drop it in her water dish and give up.

Roberta took pictures of her with a little Santa hat on we will have to send along to you soon. Bye for now.

Val and Craig,

It's hard to put into words the enormous difference Molly the Senegal has made in our lives. This little bundle of feathers has completely taken over our world in the best possible way :) You did a fabulous job raising her, she's a real sweetheart.Hard to believe she can get two stodgy adults to run around on hands and knees playing with her :) Her favourite treats are almonds and raisins and she's like a little Hoover finding every tiny little crumb. She loves to be 'on' us best of all but is very good at playing on her own.

She knows every trick in the book to get what she wants but she's sooooooo easy going, loves people and she adapts very well to change. Her favourite toy is the Chunky Monkey from Oliver's Garden, a colourful shreddable wood toy. She's learned a couple of different whistles and you can tell she's very proud of herself, especially when she practices them at the top of her lungs first thing in the morning, right in your ear :) It's hard not to laugh when she tries to avoid going to bed by offering her head for a scratch or having a sudden urgent need to groom her feathers. We're going to have a very challenging life trying to keep one step ahead of this little Einsten. Thanks again so much!

Anne and Paul Butler

Hi Val,

Fiji is doing amazingly! She lets us wrestle and cuddle her and she's just turned into our little baby, we have so much fun playing with her! She is such a sweet darling bird, I am thrilled with her, thanks again! All my friends who have met her love her, they can't get over her beautiful green (none of them have ever seen a Caique in person). She's really steals hearts! Have a good day,

Marlowe

Hi Val,
Thank u SO much for being such a great breeder of these lil guys. He's interested in everything he sees. I know the honeymoon period will end and hell test my patience, like most lil "kids" so I'm prepared hehe. But he is a real sweetheart, he started purring when Ii was talking and holding him. I want another 1 now :| LOL!!
Again thank u so much!!
I'll talk with u soon
take care
Morgan

Val, I thought it was about time I sent some pictures of the awesome child you raised. I wish that Dog breeders were as concerned about breeding dogs as you obviously are with your "BIRDS" Mikayla is the most well adjusted, friendliest animal I have ever had the privilege of having. She fills our lives with humor and joy each and every day.

Hi Val,

I can't tell you how much I adore Rumble...he belongs here. My bird family feels complete. Yesterday when I had him up he reached for David, so he is settled nicely. His voice is unique...sometimes he sounds like a monkey and some of his words are spoken like little boys.

Take care,
Shelley

Hi Val,

Hope that you had a nice New Year's .The "boys" are getting along great and they have become buddies, but both like their attention from us. Merlin now eats anything you put down but he is much neater :) Meiko still loves to get his face dirty.

Take care,
Shelley

Buying a healthy bird is not a difficult challenge if a person is very careful. Buying a healthy, very well nurtured and socialized bird that is on a very healthy and varied diet can be a big challenge. Buying a bird that goes way beyond all those expectations is what happened to us with every bird we have gotten from Cuckoo's Nest. If anyone is looking for a pet, our recommendation would be Cuckoo's Nest all the way. Thanks to Val and Craig for the wonderful additions to our family.

Val,

MJ…she is one spoiled rotten African Grey. She has to have her breakfast warmed of course every morning. Usually a boiled egg or toast about twice a week. She is extremely cuddly in that she goes into my neck and falls asleep or she will crawl into her blanket and go to sleep for hours if you let her. She can cough exactly like a human even better I think. I will say to her "MJ how is your cough today and she will cough two or three times. She starting to do the theme to Jeopardy, she says "how' ya doin" "I love you" and "over here". We took her to Nova Scotia with us last week and she loves to travel, great in the hotel room, except when she tries to talk and squawk, she's a bird what can ya do.Keep in touch.

All the best,

Mike

Dear Val and Craig,

Just a little note to say the "Fids" are as awesome as ever.

Chloe greets me with "Hello Dawn", Bye bye Dawn ... I love you. Casper is bad bird. Stop it...Casper... I want a cookie.

Hi Val,

Oh i could not be more happier! Giggles is just so precious. I was singing jingle bells to him and he was bopping up and down it is so cute! He's purring as well. He is going to be loved here so much. He has already ate some of his food so that's good to. I will be sure to send you lots of pictures but i am going to get going for now i will talk to you later and let you know how giggles is. He is just so cute!! Thanks so much!

Jenna Mckeil

Hi Val,

WOHO I love my baby!!!!!!
She was not impressed with going back into the carrier to go to the vet, but seemed happier because she could see out. She travels in the car really well. She is now 'pigging' out on her pellets. She seems very happy and content. I would have her with me all day but know that it isn't fair to her as it would not be a daily thing. Right now it is bird, bird, bird, more bird, emails to show pics and more bird.....well, you know.

Cheers, Heather

Basil (aka the clown, after dinner entertainment, lumber jack and finger nibbler) came into our lives over a year ago. He is the best thing ever. He laughs and sings like everyone needs to know. He has trained us to obey commands (Come here! Up Up! Night Night. What a good boy! Turn around. No No No! What are you doing? There! What?) The list is growing. It usually take us 3 to 4 days to teach him new words. He surprised us today with "I love you" and "uh oh!" I must say that since my Mom passed away and I feel down Basil sure knows how to make feel loved and part of the "clutch". I always give credit where credit is do. All credit goes to Val and Craig. They are not just breeders but they are family to all of us. They are absolutely the best!

Sandy and Marcel

Hi Val,

I just wanted to let you know that Congo's doing great. I can't believe how quickly the time is going with him. He now dances (not all the time, but many times) and gives a high five. And, today he said step up! It was really exciting! He wouldn't do it again later, but, hey, with time....I'm going to have a motormouth! :) Just wanted to let you know he's doing great and I'm having soooooo much fun with him.

Kerry

Hi Val, thought I would send you a little picture of Chiku on his first B-day.

Nick

This is Einstein who now resides with proud owners Kathy and Jay from PEI.

Dear Val and Craig,

Thank you so much for or little Zipper. He has bring so much joy into our lives. He talks sings and dances. He comes out with the right saying at the right time. He asked "what ya doing" when you are doing something. He gives kisses and says "I love you to" after the kiss. He eats just about everything he is not afraid to try new foods. He goes to every body even kids as you see in the picture. This is my 4 year old niece, Alana she just loves him and always wants to have him on her. I can not thank you enough for our little fellow.

Sincerely,

Tammy and David Smith

Hey there Val,

I finally got my pictures from our holiday ready for emails so I thought I would send you pictures of Petite during our road trip to Bathurst. Hope you like them Bye for now, ~Jennifer

Hi Val & Craig,

Well Archie has been with us since two years ago this past Valentines Day and he still never ceases to amaze us lol.
He's more a feather person than a "bird". He sings, dances and talks up a storm. His vocabulary is quite extensive, he speaks in sentences such as "What are ya doin?",and "Get in there", (what he says to the lovebirds when its time for them to go in their nests for the night, lol) and can sing parts of songs.
He is very out going and loves to socialize. We're soo happy he came to us.

Thank You so much for our baby! :)

Val,
Parker is doing very well he does talk. He says "Hello Parker" and "pretty bird". He wolf whistles at me, he whistles for me when he is trying to get my attention and I have even heard him say step up when he wants me to pick him up. Parker is so funny, when I am in another room and he is trying to get my attention I will say hello Parker and he will whistle at me and then I will say hello Parker again and he will whistle at me this will go on for a few minutes, then I will be quiet for a minute and he will keep whistling when I do not respond, he will say hello Parker.
Parker is very loving; he gives me kisses all of the time. Parker has a coconut shell in his cage and it is his favorite toy. He will lie on his back inside the coconut shell so that all you can see are his feet sticking out it is the funniest thing I have ever seen. He loves getting new toys I usually don't even get a chance to attach it before he is all over me trying to get at it.
Well I hope to hear back from you soon until then take care.

Shelly

Val,

Here is Yoshi enjoying the Christmas decorations. She is one sweet little girl! She whistles, click, beeps, growls and purrs (purrs are for Mama only!), and even says her name. Yo-Yo loves to socialize with almost everyone who comes to visit and especially loves my dad. It's funny to watch her run back and forth, trying to get Dad's attention. She's totally fearless when it comes to the other animals. I really have to watch the cats, as she's always trying to figure out how to get to them so she can give them a pinch!

Kelley

Hey Val,
Here's Kirby lounging around! One of his favorite things to say is "who's da man?" Or Whatz uuuuppppp!

Hi Val,

I'm just writing you this email to update you on little, well not so little anymore Fagan. Firstly, I want to thank you again for selling me something as cool as Fagan, all my friends, think his great.

The only problem for any extended period was this spring, but really I was expecting it, and that only lasted 2 or 3 weeks. But other then that hes so sweet, all he wants to do is hand out with me, or cuddle (are all Quakers really soft like him?). So its a great bonus. Ive attached a few pictures of him so you can see how hes grown, hes up to 120ish a few hours after eating. As opposed to the 100ish right after eating lol.

I'm hoping to get up to the gala this summer with the birds and mom, so you will have to come by and visit him, and Oliver and Sassy too.

Dear Gramma Val!

It's been way too long since we've been in touch, but I've finally managed to get some pics of Sunny out!

Sunny is a ray of sunshine Val! It didn't take him longer than a day or two to settle right in with the family, and there is absolutely no doubt that the ease of his transition into our home was because of the love and care you and your family gave to him Val! He is truly a member of our family and such a joy!

His playfullness is adorable and we could spend hours watching him if time would allow it. He loves his baths and likes to cuddle with me afterwards (which I love to say the least!) I know Caiques are not talkers but we are positive he is trying to mimic some of our words, like "step up." He also makes a cute clicky noise which I figured out to be his "kiss kiss" sound! As a matter of fact, all the birds are mimicking one another, and it's to the point that we can't tell their voices apart!

I would also like to say how impressed we were with the package you sent along with Sunny. The individualized information about him, the care and feeding information etc was just wonderful! You truly go above and beyond! I can't believe that you would ever need more referrals, but Val, we would love to tell people about you, your family and the wonderful babies you raise! Should we ever decide to add one more to our flock, we will only buy from you Val. You are the best!!

Take care Val, and keep loving what you do!

Hi Val;

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't even know where to start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is amazing and I just love her to pieces.
You have done a wonderful job raising her.
She is so sweet and lovable.
She is definitely MY bird though lol.
She is starting to get used to Carl and the girls but I am the favorite.
Tonight she even regurgitated supper to me( ahhhh) (gross) but ahhhhhhhh.
LOL.
She just absolutely loves to cuddle but boy does she poop a lot.
I try to say "good girl , poop" when she poops hoping she will maybe "potty train" but.... We'll see I guess. Do they eventually slow down with Poops as they get older? I know Mozart is not as frequent a he Was when he was a baby so maybe there is hope?
Anyway, Thank you, thank you, thank you.
She is absolutely wonderful.
I will send some pics soon.
And yes baby number three is somewhere in our future I'm Sure. Carl is already mentioning a Quaker again lol.
Anyway, take care and we'll talk soon.

Lori-Ann

Hi Val,

All I can say is WOW! She is everything I hoped for and more. She's absolutely gorgeous, and didn't even seem phased by the trip. Alex was telling me she was chirping to him during the car ride home. When I got home to see her she wanted out and greeted me with happy whistles. She's eating like a little piggy and seems to so far to be pretty relaxed, she's preening and chattering about. She's so incredibly tame and easy going, I'm so thrilled with her already and it's just the first day!
I can't say enough about the amazing job you've done with her, I am truly lucky to have found you and have received such a wonderful bird. I can't thank you enough!
Once she's settled I will send you some photos of how she's doing. It's been an extreme pleasure dealing with you, her folder of information is great and it's awesome how you sent all her stuff! Again thank you for the opportunity to own such a beautiful little animal, bless you! Talk to you soon,

-Marlowe

Hi Val,

Just letting you know that Jade did fine today. We got her home and put her on the play stand, I figured it would seem familiar to her. Then we let her explore her cage. She loves the rope sphere swing, didn't want to come down! She ate cut up apple like it was going out of style. She sat on my fingers and ate most of it that way, Erika fed it to her, it was quite funny! She quite liked the other swing too, we put her on it late in the day. I had to put some of the vet wrap on her swing in her cage as she couldn't stay on it, it is the jungle gem acrylic stuff. After I put the wrap on it, she loved it. She lets us know when she she wants attention! She sqawks up a storm til we go get her. My dogs are not like yours, we have to be careful not to let them around her. I'm too worried they would try to eat her. We put them out side or go in Jades' room with her. Carlee already had one bird (almost), she's not having this one!

Anyway, I just wanted you to know she's doing great. It will be interesting waking up to her tomorrow.

Talk to you soon.
Bev
