Congrats and welcome home Quasar! I hope he or she settles in smoothly.

So far, they've settled in nicely! Still rejecting nutriberries and chop/pellets, but that will come with time .

But oh so cute!!

And soooo worth it! .

I can't remember if I mentioned it, but Yvons allowed me to scratch his head a few days ago through the bars of the cage. He was blissed out, too! Little stinker didn't even try to lunge at me!

Then there's Quasar. He's nipped me four times already since Sunday, just when I'm servicing food bowls. Not hard, but enough to know that he's there, LOL!! He's mostly quiet, but seems to be getting used to everything.

MY stinkers are lovable companions! .

Day 3 and a half with Quasar. He actually ate a Nutriberry today. He kept throwing them onto the floor of the cage, and I kept replacing them. FINALLY, he decided it would be okay to taste one. LOL.. He has to nip me every time I stick my hand in the cage. What a little stinker! I'm also watching Paranormal Quest, which is a ghost-hunting show. One of their pieces of equipment is going off, and Quasar is screeching, trying to mimic the noise. He has the pitch and volume right, but not the actual dynamics. Not even Yvons has done that, LOL!!

Yvons has started calling me 'Wooooooot!' when he sees me, usually in the morning or when I service his cage. Very comical. Quasar is fitting in nicely, though he's nippy as all hells and will actively follow my hands to plant his beak on me. He's NOT tame, which I don't care about. As long as I can feed him with skin intact, I'll be a happy panda .

Vortex is her usual bratty self. Want more selfies with her, so I'll see if I can grab some later on today before Yvons is let out for the night. Charlie and Red are happy. Red is currently greeting the morning with his whistles, and Charlie is, well, being Charlie. LOL!

Sooooo, yeah. Quasar and Yvons seem to be watching each other from across the room. I've caught Yvons bobbing his head after Quasar. It's hilarious to see. And I caught Quasar eating his veggies today! Just trying to convince him that almonds and Nutriberries are not poison


The drama. It unfolds every day, LOL!

I have insomnia, so I'm posting here again. I removed the acrylic foraging toy from Yvons' cage and put it in Vortex's. Here's hoping she'll figure it out

New updates on Yvons! He's exploring outside his cage! I caught him wanting to climb onto my bookshelf today, and yesterday, he was eyeing the birdie play gym. He was streeeeeeetching as far as he could, nibbling it, but didn't actually get on it. Considering he was avoiding being outside the cage's confines for over 4 months, I say this is progress .

I also make this waaaa waaaa waaa waaaaaaaa sound and Yvons is trying to mimic it. Its comical hearing him. At first, it sounded like a derranged laugh, but he's starting to mimic it decently. He's not got it down perfectly yet, but he tries so hard to make it.
