Change the grinder to smoothie blender and the twins to engineer husband who isn’t a morning person… and you have my morning!
The birds get a tiny bit of my smoothie, though. I share because if I have to drink wheatgrass, why can’t they?
Hahaha! I also use the blender to make a green smoothie (strictly after coffee or Im liable to blend a finger off) and my husband is also a non morning software engineer (redundant terms lol!). I wound up grinding beans in the garage. I did not uncover Pitchounette until 9:30 because i wanted to make sure she got her 12 hours of sleep. I don’t need a cranky bird (I’ve got kids for that).

She’s eaten seeds from my fingers through the cage bars. This is such great practice at that like skill I do not shine at: Patience (for myself). Sprinter trying to marathon (analogy only -I Do. Not. Run.) A86D7FCB-8241-4C66-910A-001E34ED413E.jpeg DB0225C4-B7FC-462F-8268-100757140BA5.jpeg 34A0BABF-8233-416D-A3E9-B5A75473330C.jpeg

Hahahahaha! Touché. And here I was telling myself, wow my new bird friends are such sensitive people lol!
I don’t know if “bird people” can be sensitive. I swear, we face rejection on a daily basis! We make a beautiful, delicious fresh chop- gets flung on the floor.
Spend $100 on new toys? They want the crinkle paper it was packed in.
They learn a new word, so you whip out the phone to record… silent the rest of the night.
Being cute? Stop immediately when camera comes into view.
And it never fails… wear holey, torn, gardening clothes? Bird remembers poo training. But if you’re dressed for an anniversary out or a party? Big sloppy poo from the bird as a kiss goodbye right before you walk out the door!

I’ve been treating her through the cage wired and training her to step into the perch attached to the cage door. Today I opened the cage and put my hand in. She stepped into my hand but I had to be very diligent about keeping treats in between the fingers of my other hand at all times otherwise she’d start to bite the holding hand. She’s also tried sprouts today. Huge hit. 19D97FCF-C455-42DD-B32B-F66992C54257.jpeg

So far she’s eaten everything I’ve offered. Should I limit the number of sprouted beans? It’s from Avian Organics Sprout it Out.

Nope! Just means Pitchy is not as picky as my crowd! Adventurous eaters are a good thing!
