So.. over the last few weeks Daffy has been loosing weight.
I've been monitoring it and apparently Blue has been chasing Daffy from the food dishes, all three of them.
So I have finally come to the sad conclusion that I must separate them.
They aren't really bonded but they are both close enough that I am having misgivings about it.
this might be a temporary situation but..
Unfortunately the only other cage I have that is suitable for one budgie is an older one that is quite a bit smaller than the joint cage I had for the two of them.
Instead of 20x20x24 its about 18x16x16.
But I have no choice.. I suppose I'll simply get another cage eventually... but dang it...
I'd rather daffy be a healthy weight rather than otherwise.
Any other ideas on what I can do about this?

Separating them might be the best idea, then. I definitely think it can be temporary, though. Just keep working with them, and they might just grow out of this stage.
