I'm so proud of Tweetie Pie

[tweetiepiesmom]

Tweetie Pie has always been so skittish. He's has improved so much since Buddy moved in with him. Buddy also has a very sweet temperament but every once in awhile he'll nip at Tweetie Pie and Tweetie Pie just moves out of the way. He still thinks its fun to grab the band on Tweetie Pie's leg and pull. I've been opening the cage door for the two of them to come out and play. The first time they came out, they crashed into the wall, windows and so they didn't come out again. I expected Buddy would come out next before Tweetie Pie but Tweetie Pie came out first! He stayed close to the cage, sat on a perch attached to the cage, flew around the cage, crawled on top of it and found his way back in. Buddy came out also and he's a sure and straight flyer. He'll aim true and fly right back in to the cage. Tweetie has learned to do that also. I have a playgym near their cage but neither has landed on it. Today Tweetie Pie flew a little farther away from the cage, right over the playgym. He was the first out and was waiting for me to open the door. They come and go from the cage. Tweetie Pie spends more time out than Buddy.  I also held up some millet for them, holding out my forefinger with the millet held by my thumb and second finger. Tweetie Pie stretched and did everything he could to get at it but he couldn't. Buddy saw it and jumped right on. Tweetie Pie then followed and jumped on. I had both boys on my forefinger!!! I'm so proud Tweetie Pie is getting more adventurous and brave.

Lovely news that both of them are beginning to explore.  It's great seeing them flying round and doing what birds do best

Bertie's playgym was next to the cage but he totally ignored it. Now it's on the floor he comes down to play on it. Typical! I bought it to keep him off the floor.

It's great that Tweetie Pie is being so adventurous

They will get more adventurous and learn from each other.

There is always the element of "scary monster" syndrome with budgies 😃

So lovely to hear about them getting out and having fun.

Thanks tweetiepiesmom it's so lovely to hear how they are doing. Both trusting you enough to land and feed from your hand would have been such a good feeling!
