Ewww! Seriously? Photo courtesy of Janet Hilton I’m not done. I wasn’t so much bothered by my last diatribe as I was puzzled. And I realized that I’m not finished discussing this issue. People have been so supportive and I thank you all. When I first got into learning about aviculture I thought the welfare [...]

Get your Clawfoot Tub here… What is a bath tub? To make things simple let me just state that it is a container. It would contain its contents. In most homes, it is used to wash yourself. Most homes have a tub with a shower spigot over it. People often forgo the tub to soak [...]

I am floored. I just don’t understand how people don’t understand. I am not going to say, “I have no words.” because I do. As you might have noticed, Parrot Nation is Land of the Cuisinart-Home of the Chop. It is where, for lack of anything else to write about, I wrote my first [...]

Juanita has a thing or two to say about moisture in her Chop. She wants those vegatables dry, dammit, dry! Juanita insist that all vegetables be dry to the touch.
