yes, we could have fought the good fight... but it is not worth putting the old guy through all of that.

Now we have my nanday knowing something happened to his buddy... and I know we will miss the old guy.

It hurts but we did the best for him... and at 23 it was like saying good bye to a one hundred year old person.

RIP old guy... you will be missed.

1. Oh, honey, I'm so sorry.
He lived a long happy life. I hope you find some comfort in that. Just lavish extra attention and love on Nanday -- he's going to need it now, and it will help you to get through this as well.

3. Oh the two remaining birds got meat for lunch

But I will not try to hug the conure... Beaking comes to mind.

5. So sorry for your family and your bird. I didn't know how long they could live but
you did a great thing having him that long and giving him a great life.
