Interesting about swings. Charlie was great with his (mirror) swing in the old days, and Tony has at times used one then started ignoring it. How are your green boys different from your other buds, Shirls ? Thank you for asking birdguhl, I will try and explain! My other two green boys I bought together, they were originally in one cage, possibly siblings and they are olive green, they were well bonded when I got them. The two greener ones,(Buddy and Joe) got to know each other more slowly, despite they came from the same huge cage with loads of other buds in. So, basically, I have two pairs of birds, they don't really mix, and of course they are all different characters. The olive ones, Bengie and Jerry play, and Jerry is in love with Pip (my rehome), so he has to divide his time between the two. Sadly, Joe isn't very well today, not sure why. Have separated him off, given him some Guardian Angel and am keeping my fingers crossed that it is just the heavy moult they have all gone through.

Hope Joe is feeling better today xx

Sadly Joe didn't get any better and went rapidly downhill. A visit to the vet confirmed that nothing could really be done to help him. He had gone really light and had no strength in his muscles so we agreed the best thing was to have him pts. Have made a little entry in Fields of Millet.

I saw your other post about Joe before reading this one. His untimely passing is very sad given you were so recently sharing a lovely photo of him & his buddy & describing their personalities.

Buddy is still a little bit forlorn, he has no friend to sit with now, as he used to beak bash with Joe and they used to sit and chat together. As I said before, I had two groups/pairs of buds, now Buddy is on his own. I'm hoping he pals up with Charlie a bit more, he has sat with him on the odd occasion.
