This is Sammy my LCA

I got Sammy my Lilac Crowned Amazon on August 18th, 2006,and I got her from a couple that was moving Sammy bit his owner a few years ago,and they had not touched her since.

She was in a very small cage with 2 wooden perches and 2 old toys,and she is like a totally different birdie now...I feel like I have had her forever, She was eating Zupreem when I got her,and had stress bar's all over her feather's (she still has a few on her back). I was told she was 7 year's old when I got her but I am not sure that is true because she has a open leg band on her leg.

Now she eat's Roudybush, Kaylor Of Colorado seed mix, fresh veggies ,and fruit's..and birdie bread. She lives in a huge cage with 6 or 8 toys (different kinds)..and several different perches..she is still learning to play with toys though.

Sammy has changed sooo much and I am so glad that I got her.. Just recently she is getting more and more affectionate,and loves (and ask's) to cuddle each night for about 1 or 2 hour's each night or morning.

Oh, She is soo very sweet and is just a amazing birdie..I can't belive how much she has changed since I got her..it is awsome..but she still does not really like anyone else in my family...but she adores me..Sammy and I have such a incredible bond it is crazy. Also last weekend for the first time she let me sratch/scritch her head and she puffed her feather's and turned her head upsidedown!
