-> On november 25th I bought a sun conure cage and all supplies for 300.
-> The bird was 6 months old at the time so it was definately young
 
You made out like a bandit...where, may I ask, did you get that kind of 
a deal around here?
We have 3 budgies, 4 finches, and a young (almost 4 mo. old) grey 
cockateil named Merlin that we got when he (we don't really know for 
sure yet..might be a 'she'), was 5 weeks old. We hand fed him and he is 
just adorable...thinks he's a human. The only problem is that he walks 
all over our keyboards and that can be a bit annoying when you are in an 
intense game of LORD or Trade Wars.
I would really love to get a hyacinth macaw, but I doubt if I'll have 
that kind of money anytime soon. I also wouldn't mind having an african 
grey or a cockatoo, but Chris likes Eclectus and Lories. However, we 
may have to wait until we get a larger place than this condo since we 
already have a small zoo here (4 cats, a dwarf rabbit, a guinea pig, 8 
birds, a teenage son and a husband...what a crew!)
Oh BTW, there is a great Internet newsgroup about birds called 
rec.pets.birds. Also many, many great bird web pages. Just type in 
birds in one of the Internet 'search' facilities and you're off
on a wonderful trail.
Well, good luck with your feathered kid(s).
Peace, 
Elaine Tlush
