Happy Budgies! Pet shop failed me sadly, but having paid through the nose online we have two identical swings and content budgies. Barney has also discovered it's great fun to jump from one swing to the other...

Got to love when they help with work like that! Nice to see two budgies, happy with their matching swings.

No more swing wars! They look very content and happy sat there.

Swing war is still on-going here! I've ordered another swing and am waiting for it to come in the mail. Tweetie Pie has definitely decided that the swing is his. Interesting, Buddy gets on the swing while I'm covering them for the night. After they are covered I hear the squabble and shortly after Tweetie Pie gets the swing and Buddy is on a perch high up and they settle down for the night. Last night the squabble kept going. After about 15 minutes (yes, 15 minutes!) I went over and lifted a corner of the cover. Tweetie Pie was in the swing and Buddy on a perch across from him and leaning forward arguing. So I told them, "Don't make mom settle this argument because no one's going to happy. Settle down and go to sleep." I covered the corner again and went back to watch TV. Surprisingly, they listened to me - no more squabbles! Hope the new swing gets here soon!

Brilliant 😂 tweetiepiesmom Tomorrow yon can threaten them with removal of the swing from the cage if they don't give up! Weirdly Barney and Finlay settle in the evening on the swings. Then as we carry them next door they enjoy a mad swing as the cage rocks them around. Then we cover the cage and they both get off the swings and squabble about who knows what 🤣

That reminds me of my mom's finches. They used to squabble on a swing or their handmade sleeping platform, even when two. My mom would sometimes take it out to avoid the squabbles.. they would literally keep sitting on that and give out that "we are angry" calls (though very feeble), whenever mom would try to get it out and protect it with their life 😅
Mine squabble over nothing. Even with two identical swings, they would just fight for one. These days, Cookie wants to sleep on the swing or the perch where breezie sleeps - at the other end from her. Sometimes, she would share the top corner perch with him & sometimes, would push him away to another place! I think Cookie just likes to bully him. She wants everyone to know she is the Queen & everyone is supposed to listen to her!

I never knew budgies were such stroppy little things. We are having so much cross shouting from Finlay at Barney. Even in situations like this where Barney can't actually get to him 🤣 I put a pot of carrot in earlier and Barney was not allowed anywhere near it. Think I know who is going to end up being boss budgie...

So cute! I love their little fluffy faces!
Yuki gets cross like that when others come too close to him at bedtime. Sometimes they're quite a way off and he sees movement and just starts making his squeaky quacks.

They’re definitely a pair of cuties. Finlay has certainly found his feet and looks to be a good match for Barney. I love watching the interactions between my boys and how their chatter changes depending on their moods, 😄

Lots of lovely photos. We still have swing wars here despite having 6 swings and only 3 budgies. They were good tonight although Dean Stockwell did miss out on his favourite swing but I coaxed him on to another one.
