Exciting news! Today I brought my 9 week old green rumped parrotlet home and have decided to name her Dora. At the moment, she is in the top corner of her cage and she made a small sweet sound whilst I "sang" along to music. Sorry Dora. From now onwards, this is where I'll be posting our updates - a dedicated thread! <3
Whilst visiting the breeder this afternoon, they suggested purchasing a cosy tent/hanging some fleece blanket for her to nestle in and placing a towel over her cage, leaving the front uncovered. This confused me since, what I have researched has told me otherwise? My initial plan upon arriving home, was to give her some time to adjust to her new surroundings. However, the breeder recommended taking her out for kisses, scritches etc... conflicting me further LOL! Currently her diet is pulse, egg stuffconfused, seeds, pellets and fresh fruit/vegetables. I'm not sure what brand since it came in clear bags. I'm waiting for the TOPS pellets I ordered to arrive.

P.S. I posted this in the wrong forum... oops
