We'll do TAG first - no good news here :( I am waiting for a day when she'll let me come scrub the cage and stock it up. As far as I know she isn't still looking for a mate for him. I keep hoping that means she will let me buy him after she has had time to stew on it a bit.

BFA - Doing just lovely. Another Roadie is coming to visit this Saturday so I wanted to bring her home and be able to introduce her! So, I brought her home today. She is in a TEMPORARY cage - it's entirely too small for her but she is a bar chewer and the one I got with her was rusted. It's very tempting to load it up with stuff but then she won't have any room so I just put the minimums in there. She's just in this one until her cage arrives from Kathie. Thank goodness I went with the aluminium one!

She is very very active and enjoys any toy and texture I offer her to play with. She is nervous about us around the cage, so I am not pushing the subject and letting her settle in. She eats TOPS! What a relief! I went out and bought "Hartz" large parrot seed mix because it was the closest I could find to what she was being fed (basically a seed mix...) and here she is eating the healthy stuff on her own!

Here are some pictures of her settling in and playing with the new toy I made today


This her scaling the back of the cage because I have come too close:rolleyes:

It's great how playful she is! She's very pretty.

I hope you can go take care of the TAG soon. And while you're out there, don't give up. Hopefully if you keep showing how much you want the bird she will finally give in. Fingers crossed!!

The report on the BFA is so wonderful.
Eating well, and playing, and I remember reading she had a decent vet report!
Just a lucky girl.
As for the "camera of death" -- must be a common model as I have one too.

Azure is looking great and the fact that she's playing with things is something I'd take as a really good sign that she'll adapt to being around people and things. :hug8::hug8::heart::heart: She isn't at the very top of her cage, clinging on for dear life and screaming her head off in panic which is great. :highfive:

Glad to hear that your BFA is responding well to her rescue.
Too bad about the TAG but you cant win em all. Hopefully this woman doesnt obtain any more birds.

Cant wait to see your BFA in her new cage!
