I have a wonderful bird. Her name Talahah. The birds color is blue,white, and yellow. Thats beautiful color, huh. I love her, and it takes a lot of care to have a pet. You need to feed them every day,and clean up their cage once a week.

I just wanted to say from my experience I have raised hundreds of litters of mice. To the person who said the pinkies will be eaten if you touch them, the pinkies are ate often times if a lot of inbreeding has happened, also if something is wrong with them, we cant see it , but the mother knows if they are not right, that my seem cruel and disgusting but ALL animals naturally know if something is not right with their baby. Some will abandon them, some will kill them, and for some reason some will eat then(in my openion they eat them because they cant abandon them since they are confined to a cage, and if they kill them, they need to dispose of them) mice however are ones who chose, to kill and eat them. Squirrels for example will throw the babies out of the nest. Mice are also often times extremely inbreed, which of course can cause all sorts of problems. Males in my expereince, will sometimes, although not always eat the babies, and of course overcrowding in a cage will cause them to eat each others babies. I have had some males that are as much a part of the babies as the mother, and other males who would rather eat them. If your mouse eats the babies i suggest you quit trying to breed that mouse, or take in to consideration your housing. Outside of doing a head count daily there is no reason to handle the babies the first several days-even up to a week-which you dont neccesarily need to handle them to count them. They are very delicate, and even as careful as you can be you can damage them. Maybe that is a reason the mother eats them only after you touch them. if you have noticed when you handle them, all organs are vary noticable through the skin, and can be damaged vary easily.

Hello, my name is Gordon, and I have a Parakeet named Joey. He loves music! He loves everything from AC DC, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, to Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Jean Michel Jarre, to Mozart and Vivaldi. He especially loves AC DCs album Back In Black and Jean Michel Jarres album Les Chants Magnetiques. In fact, we are rocking out to AC DC as I write this!!!

My adult hen Mitred is very friendly but also very cage aggressive. I use a stick (she hops right on) to remove her from her cage and we are both very happy. She steps up immediately once OUT of the cage. She is a sweet funny pet and a great size! These birds should be much more popular!

I have had tanks from 20 - 40+ gallons and tall to long. Pearls are my favorite for sure. I have come across an aggessive male or two, but they are the exception not the rule. Likewise, I have seen some quite shy. Typically, they are great community fish and real beauties. Feed them some worms occasionally and watch their colors come to life.

I have one mini-lop. His name is Loppy. He is a light yellow color,he
is very cute and likes a lot of attention. Loppy sleeps inside but likes it when I put him outside. I think mini-lops are good pets for kids because they get along with other animals like my cat cinnamon.

i have owned mini lops for three years and they are great! i just started breeding them last year and they are so cute when they are babies and they are better when they grow up. they all seem to love to cuddle and they, and they all have their own personality that is adorable. they are all very nice and not too energetic, my favorite thing about a mini lop is when you can open their cage and they stick their heads out and want you to cuddle with them. their are great little bunnies i would recomend to anyone. i have seen other breeds of rabbits and the mini lop is the best out there!!!
