New Pet Possibility?

Days Down- 0



     Currently we have a sulcata tortoise, Sully, (who has a blog here) and a hedgehog, Rosie.  Sully is now 4 and we have had her since she was a baby, and Rosie will be 1 tomorrow.  Sully is kept on (and has free range of) the aft deck.  She has a dog house which she sleeps in at night, but enjoys walking around and looking out the clear doors.  She doesn't mind the motion and just walks around, following the sunlight all over.  When we are traveling she gets to be up in the bridge.  Rosie is kept in a cage in the master state room and isn't very fond of traveling.

    Recently, I decided I wanted a parrot (not to be cliche with pirates and all).  However, we aren't quite sure how it would really do on the boat while we were moving, the local store not knowing if the have an inner ear for balance.  But, we played with a blue and gold macaw today anyways, and we really liked it.  They aren't sure quite how old it is, since it was found in a box late, since most of the eggs the birds had been having were no good.

   Hopefully we can get it soon and get it ready for the long trip ahead of us (assuming it wouldn't mind the motion)!
