Just fed a tiny sprig of millet to Charlie and then clipped a 2 inch piece of millet with a peg so that it partially covered the front of his mirror. The idea was that it would look like another budgie was eating the millet when he did so that would encourage him to eat. He wasn't sure at first but soon tucked in Shall I?Yes I think I will. NOM NOM

Fantastic. I can't tell you how lovely it is to be able to see his progress. If I'd found anyone else to have him, he would have been lost to me forever. I'm over the moon to be able to watch him here. ;D ;D ;D

Marianne, what a clever idea, using the millet and the mirror. Charlie is one handsome fellow who has lots of people who love him and many new budgie friends. It was a difficult decision for you, Sue, but the best one for Charlie. Someday, when you have more space, you can adopt another budgie. It's called "pay it forward." One good deed leads to another.
