RIP Ruffles. I love African Greys, I've always wanted one.
when I first read that I thought it said "I love African Guys" I was like:confused::confused::confused:

I never had a bird, but I remember back in the day, my boy's brother had one... we used to smoke weed over there all the time and blow the smoke in his cage and whenever we did the bird would get lit and start climbing on the cage upside down, lol

but yeah... RIP to Ruffles... we'll see you up there in bird heaven

rip to truffles, dfresh, shit ain't cool.

20 years is a long time to have a pet. straight up...




Then a couple years later he broke his left wing trying to fly, after laying to many eggs and losing too much calcium. Shit is sad as fuck. He can't fly no more. Got all quiet for most of the time. I still take him out of the cage and put him on my shoulder, whenever i get to babysit him. Pirate style.
hold on...so it was a male, but he was laying eggs? i'm kinda confused, no offense.

lol @ pirate style...

of being a part of my family, my parrot Ruffles passed away....

:(

Found him dead in his cage this morning and I have to say, this shit does hurts .....

I never thought that I would cry, but I did. Right now the house is all quiet, I don't hear him making his noises asking for food, whistling at me and what not. Fuck, this shit does hurt.....

RIP Ruffles...


Here's some pics I took of him in August...

yeah......I don't really know what happened...last night I put him in his cage, covered his cage...the usual daily routine..

this morning I wake up to take him out and get him ready for the day, and he was at the bottom of the cage. I just don't know what happened...

Heart attack? something scared him? I don't know..I just don't know...

all I know is, it's hella quiet in the house right now...I miss all the noises, the shit he would say and having him on my shoulder ...

Well, technically he IS a she, but by the time i got the bird i didn't know the gender for sure..so i named her Queequeg (Big cannibal dude from Moby Dick), because i thought the name fitted phonetically, for a bird, that is. And by the time she laid her first egg, which was a couple of month after we got her, i didnt feel like renaming her and i stuck to the name and gender role kind of. All my family says "der (male German pronoun) queequeg" now, so yeah, it is kind of confusing.
