Welcome to my flock. It started off with Mr Hibs, who was joined by gerbils and honorary budgies Brown Jenkin and Blondie Bear (who sadly passed on last Summer), Eeyore, Chocobo the kakariki and then Patch and Squeak. Mr Hibs at the pet shop Mr Hibs, Blondie Bear and Brown Jenkin - Hibs had conferred budgie status on the two gerbils in the absence of any feathered budgies Mr Hibs, music lover Best mates What does everything taste like? Not one of my flock - a white starling!

No mixed bathing! "Read books? I devour them!" - she does:( Hibs loves my watch, by the way. "What's my password?" Handsome Patch and Squeak come home.

Brown Jenkin jailbreak Squeak likes to get into odd positions. Patch banged up. Patch on parole. Meeting of the senior parrots. The rules on mixed bathing are relaxed.

You’ve certainly spoiled us with all those photos. Chocobo devouring the books! I love my books, hence no bookcase in the room my flock is in. Brown Jenkin looks quite big. I don’t think I’ve seen a gerbil since the school one at my primary school a few decades ago, so have no idea of their size compared to a hamster. It’s probably just the photos but he looks degu sized? What a fun and entertaining household you have.

It’s probably just the photos but he looks degu sized? What a fun and entertaining household you have. I've learnt a lot about kakarikis now. They are inquisitive, exploratory and fantastically destructive! I wish I'd been aware of to what extent that is all true. Chocobo always notices when something new turns up in her world and she is fascinated by any new little tasks I perform in her presence. She always wants a close look at what im doing. Brown Jenkin is the largest gerbil I've ever seen although his brother, Blondie Bear, was close. Their diet with the previous owner wasn't the best, nor did they get much exercise. I'm trying to correct that but BJ will always be overweight now, alas. He's a cutie, very tame but prone to inappropriate nibbling, the scamp!

Youngsters worn out. Squeak and Patch Meanwhile, the "grownups" argue. Mr Hibs and Eeyore Patch and Chocobo enjoy the peace of being in the kitchen away from the hubbub (aka Mr Hibs). We don't do "shredded carrot".

They're all pretty cute. I love Brown Jenkin. I had gerbils when I was a lot younger, but I should have done more for them. I feel a bit guilty when I see the lovely lives people give them.
