He's really cute. I've loved budgies for ages and have always talked about getting one (or 12) but this isn't exactly how I imagined it :roflmao:
And thus the universe laughs as you become a Budgie momma ;)

Yeah... I'm kind of resigning to the idea that he might be staying...

But now he needs a friend and THAT'S where I run into problems :roflmao:
Totally understandable,I've tried several times in my life to get my current Conure at that time a friend and unfortunately for me that never ended up working out for a variety of reasons. It's stressful for sure.

Oh, I'm more looking at the problem of telling myself he only needs *one* friend. Not five. Not eight. Just... One...

He's a weird sounding little thing. He seems to... Bark, almost? Makes me wonder if his previous owners kept dogs. He chirps and everything, but he also has a barking noise that is just silly coming from this tiny thing :roflmao:

Of cause she should cautious, but it'd be good to keep in mind the little one is moulting ;) Some of mine look truly awful when moulting.
Yours get bare skin by eyes when molts?
I've not had that ever happen in my 2

He was out in the wild so could if scraped or something.

Xeotic can you share a picture zoomed in on face?

Good luck in Thursday.

Ehst happened to the other budgie he was found with?

She's still with my friend, I'm really not 100% sure what the plan is lol. Ultimately I'd like them back together, but it'll depend on Miss Thang's attitude :roflmao:

The think if they were reintroduced into neutral territory together it would work. I suggest a flight cage with lots of distractions.

It worked for Cloud & Ernest. They’re males, so the chances of it working for these two are even higher.

Good news!

Davey got a clean bil of health yesterday. Fecal came back negative for anything icky, doc said he's looking pretty good for having been outdoors, and it's pretty likely he wasn't outdoors long. His weight is good, ceres and eyes are clear, and age is probably somewhere around a year and a half to two years but it's hard to gage exactly.

I'm going to move him into the bird room this afternoon and see what the other two kids think of him :swoon:
