Well, Skittles is doing fantastic. He turned 12 in March and we celebrated his 11th "gotcha" day in April. The little bugger shows NO sign of slowing down. lol.
I got him a cuddle tunnel from MySafeBirdStore and he not only 'let me' put it in his cage, but he went right in it! It cost $32 for the small one, but its well made and he still hasn't destroyed it and I'm so glad I got it for him. I felt so bad cause I didn't get him anything for his adoption day, but I did get him something for his hatchday. Its just there two weeks apart and with the prices, it was hard. So I waited til I had to do a bulk order of his food and decided to get him a few goodies (like the tunnel).
I had to switch vets this year. He hadn't been to the vet since 2019 and the old vet was being ridiculous in their requirements and I wrote a bad review on Google and they didn't like it so they said I couldn't come back. His new vet is not as educated on avians (but is an avian vet) as his old one, but I think that's not gonna be such a big deal cause I'm pretty educated on him myself, I just don't have the tools or experience to do vet exams, trims or lab tests. They are also a bit closer too.
Anyways, I'll see about posting some updated pictures of him in the next few days. Hope you are all doing well and your feathered fids as well!!!
