I used to have a pantegonian conure, he was such a comical bird, plus cockatiels, a love bird, and my daughter ad zebra finches. I love birds. As for the milk, no, I haven't read much about A1 and A2...just saw something the other day. Do they make goat milk butter? Maybe in a health food store. Where I live, there are no farms near by, probably out east of the Hamptons. I would try it, I do miss butter. I make my own almond milk and love it, so for milk, I am set, but do miss butter on my veggies and such. Thanks. TeacherPat, 4 or my 5 kids were on soy milk, I wish I had known how fun goats were when the kids were young, they would of been drinking goats milk, not soy. I feel so guilty now for giving them soy. _________________ You can't discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore!

I rescued him when he was 6 months old (he'd already been in 5 homes prior) and he's 4 now. I also have 2 cockatiels that are rescues, Bart and Lilly. Bart's wings are misshapen (a birth defect) and Lilly is an albino (not a true albino, but created by breeding). Bart tries to fly if given half a chance and he falls on his back every time. Lilly is as dumb as a rock. I love her, but she needs an extremely patient person to care for her, LOL! I've done a few rescue/rehabs, but they break my heart when they go.. so I'm just sticking to these 3.

Where I live, there are no farms near by, probably out east of the Hamptons. I would try it, I do miss butter. We have goat dairies near us and they sell everything, cheese, butter, etc. The dairy I get my milk from does freeze and ship, and they also make cheese, butter, kefir... if you want the info I can send it to you privately. I'm sure you can find something closer to you with a few google searches. I'm lucky to live in CA, surrounded by farms and orchards. The pollen is pretty wicked, but worth the availability of all the great foods.

I feel so guilty now for giving them soy. Y'know Deb, I had my son on Soy milk too. It turns out he's actually very allergic to soy. We can't feel guilty for doing our best at the time. If we didn't change when we learned differently that would be another story. TeacherPat wrote: I had to be on fresh goat's milk as a child, and still love it. RIP Sally the Goat My mother had a milk goat for us, but I just could not tolerate the taste. I do enjoy goat cheeses now, so I'm trying. It's wonderful that your mom and Sally took care of you so well! _________________ ~Rhonda

How good of you to rescue these birds. The conure I had was sort of a rescue too. He was living with a family which ignored him, left him in the laundry room, so I took him and he lived in our living room. Once my grandkids came along, I had to give him back, I was afraid the little fingers may get bitten, he was quite flighty and snippy. I did enjoy the time I had with him, and loved my cockatiels. We hand fed baby cockatiels which came in very handy when a tornado went trough and a birds nest was knocked out of the tree. We saved all 5 baby birds and raised them on baby cockatiel food, never lost a one of them. They were beautiful mourning doves,,,no feathers yet when we found them. Was very rewarding raising them. A friend made an old playhouse into a bird house and they lived there for years, very happy and content.

Plus, as I understand it, for those with an inflammatory condition, casein is particularly problematic as it promotes inflammation and gut permeability. So it's no real surprise that removing it should improve sleep in sensitive people, due to the reduced immune activity. All the best Roger _________________ You may find these useful: Free gluten free restaurant cards in over 50 languages

I miss dairy, yet I know it was the one of the best things I gave up. I really, really miss cheese, but it's such a fattening food anyways, I don't need it! I do make my own almond milk, and am satisfied with it. I can have (almond)milk in my coffee now, and I don't feel so deprived this way. Besides the fat, the almond milk is probably better for me than dairy. Just need to figure out how to make some ice cream now! _________________ You can't discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore!

I was drooling over this when I saw it yesterday! please try it and tell me how it is. Cashews are a food we restrict for my husband (oxalates) so I probably won't put it together myself... I never buy agave nextar so I would reverse substitute it using guides like this: http://www.allaboutagave.com/substituting-agave-nectar-for-other-sugars.php on 2nd thought, I better copy this recipe and save for some future use. _________________ son - high ttg - 4/09, pos. biopsy 5/09 self - negative bloodwork 5/09, pos. biopsy 11/09 sister - gf for ~3 years and is a new person niece - positive ttg 2/10, foregoing biopsy

For one thing, no ice cream maker, and for another, I have to do some research...I can't use sweeteners other than stevia. Not sure I can eat pumpkin, going to try some acorn squash today. Wasn't able to eat these things before, so working them in slowly. I am on a candida diet for now, so still must be careful. It certainly sounds yummy!!! _________________ You can't discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore!

That recipe would probably hold together with a stevia sub. Can you do dates? I use dates to sweeten a few things like this. But if it's the fructose, those still might be tough on you. _________________ son - high ttg - 4/09, pos. biopsy 5/09 self - negative bloodwork 5/09, pos. biopsy 11/09 sister - gf for ~3 years and is a new person niece - positive ttg 2/10, foregoing biopsy
