Hello,
Itās been a while since I posted! I was able to help Hercules with his screaming and heās an absolute dream now, took a lot of time and effort of figuring out why he was screaming and once I cracked the code I barely hear him anymore other than his happy chirps and dances.
I adopted two other birds! Roz - a one year old green cheek conure and Theodore - a 14 week old Budgie I call him ālittle manā
I live in a small studio in the centre of London. So space is limited, however I have made sure to make room for the birds and build them an area where they can play happily. Howeverā¦ Pearly, Theodore and Hercules are so lazy! I was actually getting concerned with how quiet and lazy they are so I brought all four of them to the vets to get a check up. Other than Pearlyās feet being sore due to her deformity, they were in perfect health.
Roz is stuck to me like a magnet, and we do training everyday so I know sheās getting mental stimulation and sheās keeping busy. But the other three? Iām not so sure.
They will have an hour when they first wake up to play and climb on the toys. And throughout the day they have moments where theyāll fly around my apartment but other than that they just sit on top of the cage and chill.
Iām just wondering if that is normal for them? I feed them a very varied and healthy diet so I know theyāre not tired from lack of nutrition. But I was thinking perhaps they just enjoy each others company and just enjoy chilling out. But Iāve had four budgies in my life time and they were all crazy and active.
Does anyone else have lazy birds?
(Also apart from Pearly and Hercules, they all have separate cages, but you canāt see them in the photos)
