Sorry I have been off the forum for a while. I was celebrating Chinese New Year and enjoyed the weekend with my buds. I was letting them fly in the room as Biscuit has always been fiddling with the door wondering how the I open the door. Biscuit will eagerly fly out of his cage to perch on the perch I have made for them out of natural branches. He loves it and will sit preening and will allow me to walk around but will scuttle around the perch. Bluey is the opposite. He loves his cage but he will step up on my finger to allow me to take him out of the cage. They will sit together on the perch and preen. Biscuit is very good at flying and will not fly into the walls anymore. If I take him away from the perch he will fly back and land exactly where he wants to, and never missing. I have been using veggies as treat and it's a great treat, they just LOVE their veggies and fruits. So far I have tried with:
Bougainvillea flower. result: budgies don't like it.
Romaine lettuce. result: ooo yummy!
Green leaf lettuce. result: so tasty
mint: nice!
parsley: this is OK.
Pandan leaves straight from my garden: love shredding this stuff!
Kale: Can't get enough of this stuff!!
Watermelon: nice!
Bluey will willingly step up on my hand to get their favorite veggie, kale!
Biscuit is more cautious and he will nibble from the side and usually put one foot up, sometimes he puts 2 feet up and nibbles, but he's nibbling my finger at the same time to tell it to don't do anything suddenly like grab him. He uses the hand as a stepping stone to get to places often.
Here's a video I'd like to share of Biscuit flying to his perch.

As you can see, I am using a different cage that has a grate because Biscuit has been going to the bottom of the cage and eating his poo. Can anyone explain why he is doing this??
