Thx!

The tank is 1.5m, it's her home for almoust 10 months now :)
And she realy loves the TV! Special the programs that are for kids. When there are people between her and the tv/livingroom, she gets mad, sometimes very mad and attacks the window of her tank :P

And i think, Faya thinks that we could love her so much more :hyper:

You did a fantastic of a job recovering her! She's absolutely beautiful! When you first started talking about her here I didn't think she would survive. Seeing the before and after pics....wow! :supercool: :grats:

She looks absolutely gorgeous to me, so healthy! I remember when she was such a poor tiny skinny thing and hardly ever got fed by those awful people. :( You take such good care of her!
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Actually, poor Faya is completely missing half her beak!

Other than the missing teeth, which make her look like an old grandfather, she's absolutely gorgeous. What lovely colors!
