Moxie weighed in at 80 grams this morning.

Feeding him tonight it really hit me just how huge he is now.

He really got into his food at this feeding!    But didn't he clean up nice?!

"Look, Ma, I'm finally out of that Cool Whip container!

And I get to use the REAL handfeeding spoon now!"

You can really see the feather growth from one day to the next.

A few people have asked about whether or not Moxie will be for sale, and the answer is no. 

I have invested so much of my heart and soul into him that I really couldn't part with him.

We haven't had a pet bird in a long time, and Moxie is the perfect bird to fill that spot.

116 grams

We're learning how to step up, and as you can see on the right, it needs work!

A blood sample for DNA sexing is going out tomorrow so we can finally see

if I should be calling Moxie a "he" or a "she". 

Moxie also has a little bowl of pellets and Cheerios for the first time.

My baby is growing up!

"Hey, Ma, can I just lean on you a bit?"

"yummmmmm"

Holding steady at 116 grams.

Stepping up is getting a wee bit easier for Moxie, though the death grip he's putting on me is killer!

And look at the gorgeous feathers coming in!
