It's interesting that budgies are aware of what colour they are 😀 I always think it's a safety thing. Individuals are harder to pick out when they're in a group that looks the same. Spot on, Ira.  |

He's a little stunner Marianne Marlow. It looks like he's had a brilliant day. I bet he sleeps well tonight |

I came to uncover them and heard Dinku singing under the covers. When I uncovered his cage it looked like he was singing to Iris and George.  |

I wish I was a budgie at you house Marianne Marlow It's been a long few weeks and I could quite do sitting around singing to lots of friends with food and toys on tap. He's a lucky little boy. |

He's really laid back and my lot always welcome a new bod. It's a lot easier when you have more budgies to integrate a new one I find.

Same here I just let the new one out, they fly around the room a few times. Land up high. Within 20 mins they are landing near a new friend. Sometimes the current ones fly away a bit but eventually all is calm and it's like they have been here for years. Ohhh for sure, i never had a problem with my lot, they always welcomed a newcomer with open wings |

Dinku looks like he’s been part of the flock forever. He’s such a happy little chap. Marianne Marlow, I’m so glad he’s settled so well and I bet you’re thoroughly enjoying watching the new friendships forming. |

He started singing tonight, 30 minutes after I had covered them all. It went on for about 15 minutes! None of the others ever sing after they are covered Dinku looks like he’s been part of the flock forever. He’s such a happy little chap. Marianne Marlow, I’m so glad he’s settled so well and I bet you’re thoroughly enjoying watching the new friendships forming. |
