Albie has started a new thing

[Stitchthestitch]

Well 2 new things.

The first is he gets jealous when hubby and me cuddle on the sofa, so to seperate us, he flies over to the desk and starts throwing everything off that isn't nailed down. Then when I go over he fluffs up, stamps his little feet and chitters away at me like he's telling me off, only it's so adorable I can't help but coo at him which makes him more annoyed.

The second is he's taken to plucking out out arm hair. It's not preening, he's actually yanking it out! It hurts! And when he does it he either laughs or goes eh-eh depening on his mood. I found it halarious when it was just hubby being plucked..... Until he created a bald spot on my arm.... Wonder if I could train him to do eye brows.... I'd make a fortune of a specialty eyebrow service.....

Haha - like a new "threading" service...but with flair!



Try to keep hormones down the best you can and keep sleep consistent etc, but I'm basically rooting for this eyebrow gig! lol

We have him on a very consistent schedule for sleep and we keep him out of dank spaces along with all the other very good advice on here.
Honestly? I'd probably make a tonne of mistakes ofvo didn't have you guys helping me when I need it. So thank you

Mmm is he hormonal? Has he decided to get a wee bit jealous of the two of you together? Looking at his hatch date perhaps this is the adult rather than the baby Albie that you are seeing.

 

[Stitchthestitch]

He's great with both of us and I think it's more of a game with him as he get bored when we're sit binge watching tv as he usually starts it after 3 episodes of what ever show we're watching.

Albie joins us for meal times and doesn't do it when we sit eating together, he doesn't do it if we only watch 1 episode, we can hug and kiss and get no reaction what so ever from him.

OOhh you need to do what I do for my Jefferson budgie! Put on some youtube Birdie videos for him, Maybe he will sit and bingewatch with you!

(Or, maybe you or hubby will be the ones tossing the desk from boredom after awhile...)

Whatever the cause - likely hormonal - at least it is relatively benign behavior!

I can see the sign now: Eyebrows by Albie
