- Sunny the Sun Conure (sept '18, gotcha 3/'19). Mr Jefferson Budgie & Mrs Calliope Budgie (albino) (nov'18 & jan'19). Summer 2021 Baby Budgies: Riker (Green); Patchouli, Keye, & Tiny (blue greywings).
Calliope my little white beauty has been chewing holes in the windowframes, and trying to use the gathered curtaintops for nesting anyway. I definitely found one egg in the cage papers, and a splat below a window which I think started off as an egg...
I had decided sometime back that it would be okay if Calliope and Jefferson were to make some babies. I am still work-from-home, but I do hope and plan for any chicks to be parent-raised as far as possible.
So, I got her a nestbox. As resistant as the budgies are to anything new, I was certain it would take 6 months or so before she would even consider peeking inside, much less using it. I was wrong!!
So, here is where we are as of right now:
