LOL somehow, I must have overlooked the part in your reply about Charlie's affection to your hand. LOL That is a funny story! Just train him to love your company's hand as well when they are over! LOL
That sounds great to be able to raise one from birth, no wonder he loves you so much! I am happy to hear that you have such a sweet little bird. Please attach a picture! I will go back and try to visit your album.
