Wow, 29 years old! It is so great that he was taken care of so well that he lived that long. Did you set up a platform for him to sleep on at night, or does he still lie on the bottom of the cage?

Hi,
I tried to make him a bed at the bottom of the cage but he just messed in it,lolol. He does still sleep on the bottom occasionally but seems to spend more time on his perch now. I have done nothing different.

Hi,
What is his name? I had a pearl male, Flipper live to be a few months short of 30. It sounds like your fella is getting delayed nesting behaviours with the faviring the corner and getting defensive of the cage.
Hi, Wow another amazing bird. Mine is called Tommy and another few choice words when he is very noisy.
Thanks for that info.
Tricia
Merry Christmas to you all from the UK.
Just thought I had better give you an update.
Tommy is still very much alive,screeming,shouting & talking.
He is still sleeping under his food bowls at the bottom of the cage but as soon as anyone comes in he is there non stop singing ect on his perches.
He does still attack my Husband & we all think it hillareous as he was the one Tommy loved most of all.Now its me.
Love Tricia & Tommy xxx
Aww, I just read through this thread and noticed the dates... I was expecting a sad update since he's so old, but I'm happy to find out Tommy's still going strong!He is amazing and inspiring.
This is such fantastic news.
Merry christmas to you
awww great
what a veteran
It's so nice to hear of a bird who has spent his whole (incredibly long) life with one loving family. Especially such a handsome bird!
Do you think he would use a wire perch thing? I've got one here that Sammy (typical lovebird) hates and throws out of the cage every opportunity. I took the hint and it's now sitting at the bottom of a drawer.
PM me if you want it x
it's the small one on here http://www.petdiscounters.com/Movabl...orms-p873.html
Thanks Lee for the adorable sig!
What a great update, I am so happy Tommy is still happy and attacking your hubby, means he still has lots of spunk in his for a old man. Your definitely doing something right to have Tommy for all these years, must be such a great thing to have a bird for that long.
Fly Free Boomer, we will forever love you.
Great news! Tommy is surely in good hands.
I was so nervous reading through this thread and watching the dates go by on the older posts. I'm so glad to hear Tommy is still around and happy and being noisy
Hi,Thank you for the kind offer. We have one of those but he prefers the bottom of the cage.Originally Posted by pixibubbles

Hi All,
Can someone help me to put a pic up of Tommy please?
There was one on here but it seems to have dissapeared.
Tricia x
You could just upload it to your gallery for everyone to see, then you could copy and paste the picture or whatever here.
1. Just go to your profile
2. Click create an album
3. Click Upload Pictures
4. Browse through your documents until you find a picture you want
5. Double-click that picture to start uploading it
6. Wait until it is done uploading (Which could take a while) and then name and describe it
Hope this helps, I really want to see a picture of him!
I still haven't managed to post a pic of Tommy.There was one on here but it has dissapeared.Can someone post it for me if I send it to you?
An update on Tommy now in his 31st year still singing,dancing & attacking me,lolol
He loves to cuddle under my neck & then we dance around the room.I don't know how I will manage when that dreaded day arrives.
Rock on Tommy your my star xxx
