Well, it's been a long time coming with this tough decision for me but last week I made it final. I decided to go take a look at a few of the breeder's babies and took a day to do so.
It seems I found the one!
The second breeder I went to had nine babies (the most they've had in fifteen years!) - three Congos and six Timnehs. After my research I decided a Timneh was the way to go.
I held the three youngest babies and although all of them were absolute sweethearts, I knew my baby as soon as I held him.
He's just over 5 weeks old now and I will be taking him home in 2 months. I don't know how I'll wait that long! I've been to visit him 3 times in the past 5 days and am suffering from baby withdrawal.
Sorry about the picture quality - my boyfriend didn't want to use flash!
So here he is - baby Darwin.<br><br>Post edited by: cf737, at: 2009/02/03 04:48

I know the next two months will seem like forever but it will be here soon, patience, patience, patience.:lol:
Darwin is beautiful!
Karma to you for sharing that wonderful picture![]()
Adorable:kiss:
What a beautiful baby TAG, Congratulations!!
Looking forward to seeing constant updates with pictures on baby Darwin. They grow so fast you will not believe the difference just one week makes. :-)
Within all of us is a varying amount of space lint and star dust, the residue from our creation. Most are too busy to notice it, and it is stronger in some than others. It is strongest in those of us who fly and is responsible for an unconscious, subtle desire to slip into some wings and try for the elusive boundaries of our origin. ~K.O.

What a cutie! Congrats.
I am not sure if you already have a cage and toys and other parrot necessities, but this would give you time to acquire those items and get everything set up and ready for the baby to move in.
Thank you all for your wonderful replies!
I am going to see him again tomorrow - camera in hand, of course!
Although the two months will be a long time to wait, I am very happy to have it. I will have plenty of time to get everything set up for little Darwin's homecoming, as Sallas mentioned.![]()
As long as pictures are welcome, I will have plenty and will keep posting them!
