Working on Perching and Fluttering today ;)
They get to go to a cage during the day for playtime now, and then back to the brooder at night.

I wish that I could hear him!

Hemingway takes preening very seriously it seems.
His sister does too, but he doesn't seem to even notice that he's on a playground..
"Over here, Hemi!!"
"But, my hair..."

Well, Hemi is very un-Linnie-like and hates water ;)
I’m sure that this will change, but here was his first go at a bath.

His brother took to it like a fish!!

The little voices

I’m dying.
Apparently, Hemi has a favorite toy (a rubber ducky), which will be coming home with us. I have loaded up on foot toys…

So he’s an absolute gem.

Pickup went smoothly,he perched on my shoulder nicely :)
Car ride was about an hour and he was pretty good the whole way, he did a lot of exploring.

Into the cage without issue, but he seems…overwhelmed (not surprisingly).

got him to eat from my hand though!

Photos are too large to attach, so here’s a quick album!

He also does this “electric cooing” in my ear when I hum to him. So damned cute.
