I think she's about 8 months going on irises, is that about right? Quarantine cage is all set up now and ready to go. Link to comment

Thank you Kassidy I haven't heard from you in ages! My parents would probably do the same thing, so not surprising. When are you going to get the hen again? I forgot. P.S. Hehe! I've gotten so busy with the school year starting up again that I didn't have much time to be on the forums. School was out today because of the snow storm going on, so I actually had some free time.

When you were visiting the pet store, what condition was she in? (I saw the pictures, but was there anything else that seemed unhealthy about her?) P.S. Instead of going off topic here, I'll PM you soon. EDIT: I can't send a PM to you, I think your inbox might be full. Edited January 27, 2011 by Kassidy Link to comment

She has a pied spot, so I assume she's split rec pied. Link to comment

You need to try to find out who PH1 is. Do you know a ring register in your state? You are not in a club are you? Link to comment
