It was a little early but they both seemed healthy and were slowly driving us all bananas yelling to each other, so Indie and Yuki have finally met.
The initial chat seemed good. Yuki started going well and truly nuts trying to get to Indie. Indie appeared... Indie.
(Please ignore my chatter in any of these videos. It’s hard to record quietly when your partner starts talking to you. )
I let Yuki out after a while because he’s the more adventurous one. Love him, he was so engrossed with Indie that it took him ages to work out that he could come out of the cage. I left Indie’s cage shut at first because I didn’t want Yuki diving in and making a nuisance of himself. But after a while of Yuki flying about causing Indie to fly about inside the cage I opened the front door. That was between the two cages though, so not an ideal prospect for going in and out.
Yuki kept looking down the side of the cage for the door, because that’s the direction his door’s been in for a while, so I opened the side door and popped a landing platform there.
So he went for a chat, and then let himself in, the cheeky blighter!
What followed was Yuki following Indie about for a bit, Indie going to eat some seeds, and Yuki nibbling some spinach. Eventually Yuki started flying in and out, which startled Indie into following him out of the cage.
They hung out whilst I rearranged the big cage. Then Yuki decided it was time to start trying to nip Indie’s toes. So after a while of this, with me ‘prodding’ Yuki to disrupt him when he tried because Indie wasn’t fighting back at all yet and was preening his feet a lot, I got Indie up on the stick and popped him in the cage so that he could have a break from Yuki. At which point Indie immediately started contact calling... so I guess the youngster ‘harassing’ him doesn’t bother him that much...
