That's not your cage, Oscar!

Oscar..Oscar...Oscar ( say that the way Felix Unger said that to Oscar Madison on the old "Odd Couple" tv show )

How can he be expected to resist?

 

[BeatriceC]

He had his own millet, for the record. He just wanted theirs too.

Also, he knows he's not supposed to go cage hopping. Just a little bit ago I heard him drop to the floor and head in their direction and went "ahem", and he gave me a guilty look and turned around to go back to his own space.

He is adorable. Gotta love the goffin personality.

He wanted to go resource-shopping and save his own!!

Are you able to reliably handle him yet?

Are you able to reliably handle him yet?

Oh, yes. That only took a couple weeks. He's a snuggle bug now. The only times I have issues with him is occasionally he doesn't want to come out of his cage. He can be a bit cage aggressive in the right mood, but very rarely anymore. He's even slowly earning some shoulder surfing privileges. Also, yesterday, we did this:

Beatrice...when Jonesy was here..one day my g.f. called me to the living room. She stopped me before I entered,and she said "watch this"..I looked and looked and couldn't figure out what she was referring to.

Underneath Amys' mansion,I put newspaper down to catch anything she may drop. I focused my eyes,and I saw the newspaper jiggling and bouncing away. Then..out popped this white head..just his head..he looked this way,then that way,then back again..and then he saw us looking at him.
He froze for a couple seconds,then hopped out from under the papers,and beat feet to his house! I never saw him run so fast! I caught you Jonesy!!!
My g/f and I were hysterical lol.
I must,and will admit, he was one goofy little bird with tons of personality and mischief!

Oscar is still pretty subdued most of the time. We've only had him three months now. But his personality is coming out more and more, and when it does, he's a total clown.
