She's bigger, although the difference isn't as big as I thought it might be, which I don't mind. Her weight is in the lower 300s, but it has been stable for a while apparently. She'll probably put on some weight in the next few months.

She is lovely :)
It pains me to leave her alone while the others are out, but it's best she learns. But it's hard..probably more on me than her, I just checked up on her and she was still sleeping.

I'll take advantage of the QT to reinforce our bond (although she seems to have taken to me quite a bit), but I find it's sad I don't have any play structures in the bedroom (as once she is out, no birds go in there) and I can't bring her out here when the others are in since it'll totally defeat the purpose of the QT. But she likes to play so I'll have to figure out something. I think I have some table stand parrot towers in storage, will get the Boy to get one out. She's still a bit clumsy getting around her cage though :)

What about that big orangey thing that you purchased.. the one that can hold the atom?

Would it fit in your room?:)

I thought of it and...no. It's already a bit cramped in there, the parrot tower I could put above her cage and just smother it in toys which could very well make her happy. She's been loving wooden toys so far.

How about one of those Hagen floor stands with the big steel platter? Have one of the those? Do you have a window in your room that can hold the Wingdow?

The wingdow is in there and she did go on it.
I do have one of those floor stands, but it's Petey's preferred stand if he's not on the Boy..can't take that away from him and there isn't much to do on it. Parrot towers will be more fun :)

Sounds like she's settled already!
Once she'll eat a bit more, I'll be happier. Feeling paranoid about that and crossing fingers there is no regressing.
I'll cook some Avian Organics mash tonight and spoon feed her that and see what happens.
