In the last week, Buddy has started to pull the newspaper up from under the grate, rip it into strips, and try to form a nest out of the strips.

Comments? Could Buddy be a girl?

I think you have a girl! But both gender can build a nest, but more common if a female does it.
That's what I'm thinking...I'm wondering if eggies could be on the horizon...:jawdrop1:

My two boys are my nest builders. Take away the paper just in case.

Males can play with paper too & build nests.

Guess if you find eggs...you'll know for sure...

I think I'll raise the grate so Buddy's busy beak can't get to the paper...;)

We never saw any eggs from Buddy at the rescue, but that doesn't mean anything for sure...! He did like to rip up paper that was on/around his grate sometimes, but he never seemed to do anything other than tear the paper a bit and then move on (usually back to his food bowl. ..:rolleyes: :D).

...ah yes...the great equalizer...FOOD!

I swear he eats all day long and never gains a gram!

He's 135g...the same he was at his annual exam at the beginning of June...;)
