There is also silence from Winnie ha ha she keeps staring and head tilting lol The breeder said they may have eggs I thought if there was no nest box this will not hap he said they may have them at the bottom of the cage and if they do just take them away  Not sure on that ? Winnie is trying her hardest to get as close to his cage as poss and Noah is paying lil attention and is busy chatting and grinding away lol |

Sorry readers me again
I have both cages next to each other does that defeat the object of quatenteen or is that ok ?
Also he is a big bird and his cage is wins old one he can't seem to fly or get up off the floor I can imagine its because he is heavy and needs more fly space to get airborne
I have had to put him back on the perch also had to feed him from a dish on the floor as his big head can't fit in the front feeders lol
He is very quite and is just sleeping at the moment

It does not serve the purpose of quarantine. They have to be in different rooms. Hope everything goes well |

I moved him last night o a dif room he seems ok I think because the cage has a deep base and he has to fly straight up I think because of his size it's hard to do a vertical take off he is on the floor at the min but is cleaning and arranging his feathers

He is slightly worrying how he has poor balance I think his perch maybe to thick or something I suppose after being in a bird room now he is in a cage he will have to learn his space. He seems happy cleanin and singin

Which breeder did you get him from Liz? Did they say anything about him not flying very well? I can't wait to see photos Quarantine is a minimum of 30 days and it may seem like forever but it will give you a good chance to start and bond with him |

Not sure on that
