She did have a lot of changes in th last year. First the apartment movement a year ago And than changing the cages location to expose her to the sun as possible. Once in a while I'm changing the toys position in the cage but my boyfriend thinks it's a little too much for her. I mean after getting her out the cage for the first time in a very long time and all the other changes.
I've uploaded a picture of a similar cage of what we have. This is what we could afford at the time.
She's been living in it for a year now. I don't believe it's optimistic but we can't upgrade at the moment.
We try to get her out the cage as much as we can, and give her as much attention.
After were taking her out spoiling her a bit, correcting kissing and talk to her, aventually it comes to the point where she's starting to wandering around the house and looking for something to chew.
She really loves the bathroom. Especially the sock drawer, she likes the wood that it's made of.
and when she sees the door is open she's practically running there, it's quit funny.
About the diet. Except p15 that we're feeding her on a regular basic. Shes getting a full supply of apples, oranges, nactarines, cucumber, and other sorts of vegetables and fruits. Sometimes I give her nuts and cornflakes for a snack. And also pulses that we bought especially for her in a pet store.
I keep her environment and dishes clean, and you already know that it's a lot of work. But it's done
Carole what do you mean by foraging? Am I suppose to imitate life in the forest for her? And how do I do that?
By the way, I will take her to the vet shortly.
In her cage there's fabric ropes and paper ties I Made for her. I don't think that changing their location in the cage is enough. I want to add a new toy to the cage. and we tried it already with 3 kind of toys gradually. We tried a round swing, a big device of ropes and cubes that's outside the cage for a long time to get her use to it (never happened). And we tried also a square swing with cubes attach to it.
They all were too much for her. The things that she loved are already inside the cage but it's not a lot.
About the time that we're getting her out.
I told my bf that we should take her out in the late mornings outside for twenty minutes or so. Just to sit on the porch and to get a little sun for a change. Only if we have the time. He's at home two days of the week so he can manage to do that sometimes. I'm coming home at 16:30 everyday and I take her out.
She's hanging with us most of the time until ten at night more or less. And occasionally when we give her a treat she's eating it on the top of the cage.
I wanted to make for her a daily routine so she would be prepared for any thing at any time.
And I need your help with it. I don't know half a thing about rearing birds.
Thank you so much Carole and everyone else. This means a lot to me.
And sorry for my English, hasn't been in the states and in South Africa for a very long time now
