It is A LOT of hard work, besides running a reptile and amphibian exhibit, being a single father, taking care of my own collection of rep.& amphibians I spend 3-4hours a day with Yue. But it is all worth it, she is so personal and loving plus to have the kind of relationship with an animal, a bird at that, is mind blowing she even knows the difference between my footsteps and my roommates and she'll grip until i let her out so she can follow me around my house. She's definitely a character.
