Hi!

Thought I would pop in and say hello!

I had a wee blue budgie called Blue for just over 10 years sadly he passed away in January... was just old age I think

Liked sitting nice and toasty, with the cage open he would show no interest in coming out! Even the last few times before that he would just come out for a climb, then back in! He is still missed

On a brighter note, today I bought a new wee pal! Calling him Pika, and from that name I bet you can guess he/she is a Lutino

Seems to have settled in quite nicely already, found food, had a wee play, been climbing around! Going to let him/her settle for a week or so before trying to finger tame!

Anyway, hello!

I'm gonna go upload a picture in the appropriate section

Craig!

Hi Craig and Pika! Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear about Blue, he sounds like a great wee budgie! He lived a good long life, we dont half miss our little friends when they fly away. I'm sure Pika will help to fill the gap and bring some chirpy cheer back into your life! :-)

Ruth

RIP Bobby & Pippin

Its amazing how much you miss these wee characters. I had a blue hen for 12 years who died last year and still miss her. Look forward to hearing all about Pikas antics
