Hi, so I brought 2 canary the other month on orange and the other yellow (Male and female). The orange canary, however, is starting to losing his colour I was told I should feed him boiled carrots to help him maintain and get his colour back at the start of his moult but I don't know when they start to moult I looked everywhere and nowhere tells me when they start does anyone here know when they start or how I have a better way to find out. Thank You.

I know!!! I keep "accidentally" putting on potato videos so my husband can see them, and I've even got him stopping to look at potatoes we happen to see in the local bird stores etc. We don't have room for one (and I know we would end up with several), but I know we would end up being the crazy bird couple in our neighborhood.

They are adorable little derps tho....

Man i wish Tito liked showers. Only thing he likes that's water related is standing in a little bit of water in the sink. Like just stand in it, and occasionaly dip his beak in, that's it. There's only been one time where i sprayed him and he enjoyed it.

My trick has been this -

1. For my legs, I take baths most days. Serra goes into her travel cage and sits next to the bath tub with some treats.

2. At the end of bath, she gets a spritz with the showerhead.

3. Because it has made her molt incredibly easier, she only protested the first time. Now, she gets soaked, preens for ten minutes, and shuts her eyes while sitting next to my fan.

Bird loves fan.

The bird fluttered around and into the kitchen near the lit stove. All I could think to do was bodyblock the lil guy, so he just booped into my chest and fluttered to the ground. Just wanted to keep him from the stove and food. Then he was kinda bumbling around on the ground like a happy dope, stomping and singing. Hopped right up on my finger and happily went to his cage, singing and head bobbing the whole way.

She's going well but she's taken to pulling Galbedir's feathers out because she's mean and nasty. I've tried separating them but Galbedir's Stockholm syndrome is in full gear so he flock calls and tries to escape even when they're right next to each other but separated by a cage wall. (Also he never struggles or tries to get away when Crouton chomps him, just squeaks sadly and then tries feeding her more food.)


Luckilyyearly vet visit is coming up so I'll see what he recommends.

Double posting to say I found a new apartment! A few pages ago I mentioned having roommates that would cover the cage indefinitely (although I said they could if he was too noisy, there's an LED light in the cage that keeps the whole thing bright) or bang on the door to spook Banana into being quiet. Excited to have our own place. The other big bonus is that we can finally sleep in separate rooms!

He's gonna have a nice big, bright living room. I can't wait.

I might even get another budgie. I think he needs a friend because right now his flock includes myself, a bell and a cellphone.

And Captain Log, silly question but is Blue the yellow budgie and Yellow the blue one?

Nah, that'd be too clever. Blue is blue, yellow is yellow. (They are secretly Chuck II and Tito II)

Cromulent. I approve of this message.

Anywho! Remember what I said about getting the bird to bath? Here is the process -

Sits here while I take a soak for my legs -



Then...d'aaaaaawwwww!



Close up for posterity -



She likes getting bathed, but doesn't like mirrors. She normally flies into them or hides -



Then, she does this -



Believe it or not, she is pleased as punch. She spends about five minutes floofing and drying off like a boss.

Then she tries to eat my paracord -



So, I go to the bird store once a week. I've become close friends with someone there and get great access to awesome birds. Like this fella! He stays there about once a month to board. Yes...he has an underbite -



We match!



I've also had my eye on this borb of a Quaker.



She has eyes for my phone. This is what a bird looks like before it jumps a yard -



It's been a good week. Birb says hi to the webs.
