By the way... they have integrated well.. Custard likes JoJo and she "tolerates" him. BillyBob gets on with everyone..

Sounds like everything is honkey dory at the moment. Good news on JoJo, just need to get her flying. Hopefully the email is satisfactory for Billybob.

If the vet decides he needs to see him then he shall.

Great news that JoJo has a clean bill of health - that's the way to start a new year!

Well done for JoJo, here's hoping for the same for Billybob. Hopefully a little incentive will get Jojo flying again.

I know its a long shot, but do you think that JoJo will attempt a bit of flying now she is with a bigger group? After all she will have to start behaving like the flock? I wouldn't be surprised if she did have a little go, even tho she may not be the most strongest flyer I have faith - Marianne Marlow the budgie whisperer

If I take her out of her cage, them bring her close to it, she leans forward as if to jump, but doesn't flap, just ends up on the floor, plonk...
don't worry, we have a springy cover with newspaper on it, on the floor in front of the cage. She lands on that.
She can flap her wings but seems to choose not to?
Don't get it.

I love this Thanks BB. It's really a rodent carrier, but I try and get it so that they feel okay in it. Under the towel, I put a small hot water bottle.

If she is shown by the others she may just give it a go you never know? Does she flap and stretch at all to get the blood back in after sitting idle for a while?

She sees them zooming past her... guess that she thinks it's just something that boys do!
She flaps and stretches. The vet stretched out her wings and examined them. Nothing wrong with her.
She could just be a lazy hen!
