Used to walk everywhere with a barn owl but now has a frog mouth The African grey is Richmond upon Thames,the cockatiel was in the alps Switzerland I think?Would love to see a frogmouth.

eastcoast 3,759 Posted September 27, 2023 Report Share Posted September 27, 2023 I always thought (read, never seen it) that a dog and fox can perform the mating act (have sex) but cannot procteate due to (as mentioned by others), being completely different genetically. No more chance of success than that depraved sub-human freak on an another current thread. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We had just been to the beach and were walking back through the park when my lady spotted the parrot flying about,it follows the guy as he rides his bike along the river bike track,he showed me pics of his other parrots,I was surprised a goshawk or peregrine hasn’t taken it.

It's all the rage over here now from what I've seen on socials; my mates garden is now a giant aviary basically for his parrot. This is what got me started looking at the videos etc. That's some trust in his bird That, especially at the price of some of them. Can remember a family friend paying 50k for a pair about 20 years ago 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
