Confetti makes it home to meet Jazzy

[Grinder]

It took about an extra two weeks (because of some personal issues we had to deal with), but Confetti finally made it home. He has already been vet checked, cleared and immunized so it's safe for him to be with Jazzy. He was a good boy and rode the whole ride home sitting on the head rest of my truck.

When I brought him home I placed him on the table top playstand (time for a bigger one!) and Jazzy became alert. I took her out of her cage and her eyes were pinning! Then she let out three loud shrieks. And that seemed to be the welcome they both needed. Jazzy immediately wanted to meet Confetti and next thing you know they are playing on the stand, eating together, preening each other. The only issues is Jazzy gets a little jealous when you pet Confetti and not her

I am including some pics of both of them and of Confetti by himself (sort of). I am also going to try and embed a youtube video. In the picks Confetti has the darker beak. The pattern around his eye is also distinctive, but difficult to see in the pics. In the video (if it works) Confetti is on the left while Jazzy is pretty reserved because she has never seen the video camera before

MANY congrats on bringing Confetti home! I loved the video and the pictures.

AWESOME that they took to each other right away. I'm lucky in that department as well. My Niko & Ripley get a long really well - most of the time.

Thanks everyone. It was actually a pleasure waking up to twice the mess this morning Admittedly, my mother lives with my wife and I and she DOES A LOT to help clean up after all the birds during the day so I can't pretend to do all the cleaning!

I admit I'm a bit slow...but do I detect a hint of sarcasm or are you serious? HAHAHAHA

 

[Grinder]

Wendy, I was serious and sarcastic at the same time. I knew there would be twice the mess to clean up, but it felt good to be dealing with it at the same time because I knew Confetti was finally home

I am soooo jealous, lol...my blue and golds got in a fight last night, they don't like each other much.

Congratulations!!!!

HAHAHAHHA - makes PERFECT sense now. There are days I pity myself, NO kidding, especially when both Ripley & Niko are in mayor destructo mode because it seems my hands never let go of the broom, or the vacuum, or the mop. :54:

Wow that is amazing that they took to each other that quick. Congrats

 

[Grinder]

Thanks Aliray. The flip side is that now they cant be more than 5 feet apart. Maybe I screwed that up? I can hold and cuddle each one individually, but if I take one to the cage or play stand I have to take the other at the same time or they get upset. Not sure if it's something they will get over and learn to understand or perhaps they will have to go everywhere together
