Wasn't sure what to call this, it's just that I've recently put another bird bath on the side of the my budgies cage but this one is dry and Mischief, my female has taken to going in there to have a lie down  She looks so cute lying quite flat out and when Sid comes to 'bother' her, she just sticks her head out and they have a little set too and she tells him (I presume) to go away! lol. So I've also put a plastic budgies buddy at the other side of the cage for company for Sid as Mischief is getting on now and I know I appreciate a bit of peace and quiet so think she does too, Sid doesn't seem too and is always on the go and chattering away, so no peace and quiet for him, not yet although he is a bit younger ;D  |

I have a photo of Smudge doing that - sitting in the empty side of the double seed pot. Just can't find the thing though.  Hens are funny creatures. ;D |

 Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.usBlimey it worked !! thanks for your link Hezz, very cute and as you can see from mine, Mischief really wants some space lol! He (Sid) is a bit of a pest always has been he's been with her since he was a tiny thing, but I am wondering (think I put this somewhere else can't remember!! ) can they breed all of their lives, not that she'll let him near her, been a few feathers flying because of that, she just doesn't seem to fancy him although they play and give each other seed at times they've never preened each other either.....cute tho' hey |

Isn't Sid such a pretty boy!? What's the matter with Mischief? She couldn't ask for a better looker! ;D My two, Smudge and Sparky are the same - he is as keen as mustard, but Smudge ..... nah ah. She looks almost clastrophobic in there, but obviously that is what she wants, funny little thing! |

I think her two previous male mates were older (1 sold separately when I bought Mischief) one we had with her died, so perhaps Sid is too young for her . Think I should have called it 'a place of refuge' hehe! The other bath has water in but she won't go in it, Sid tries but he's bigger and hasn't quite conquered it yet so they get showered too with a plant spray I keep for them. Oh I've been looking through my 'records' too and I bought Mischief at the beginning of 2006 so she was born in 2005, older than I remembered! |

Oh this is very cute, me still thinks a bit of nesting behaviour there ;D, or maybe she is a bit confused ;D. She's in her boudoir, you should get her a DO NOT DISTURB sign . |

 Uploaded with ImageShack.usJust going through some old files and found this photo of Mischief with her 'former partner' Alfie. Taken 2006 and he died in 2007! No idea how old he was sadly! |

Sid is beautiful, don't know why Mischief doesn't fancy him. Her previous partner Alfie was lovely too tho!
