Indy Update

[Ashleigh86]

Indy will be 10 months in a few days! She is still working on getting that yellow and orange in, but she's a late bloomer She's molting like crazy and taking baths almost every day! Still a super cuddler and a drama queen if I ever saw one lol She seems to be a happy and healthy sun! Here just a few pics of her being adorable

I particularly like that last pic where she is eating popcorn (?) Very cute. She does still look like such a youngster. So sweet.

My favorite is the second one. It's too precious!

Aww, Indy is precious!! I love that second one too, what a sweet cuddlebug

 

[Ashleigh86]

Thanks guys! She's not spoiled AT ALL. LOL

Indy is BEAUTIFUL !! I like the second one the best too, BUT I want to hear the story of how you got the third picture, I'm always doing silly things with my parrots and I think you have a good back story on that one LOL

Thank you! She is always in my sleeves!!! LOL she will stay in my sleeves for so long that she will fall asleep in them with her head popped out where my hand comes out, so that's what you are seeing in the third one haha She'll play in them forever and she mimics my laugh so when she pops in and I ask" Indy, whatcha doin?" She'll laugh and laugh and then pop her head back out, and this goes on forever lol Such a little goofball

Aww, I could just imagine that, Very Sweet how much they love us

We are very lucky to share our lives with these beautiful creatures

My Plett falls asleep at my side between my arm and my side, She just LOVES to be "crushed" in there, when she wakes up her feathers look so disheveled LOL

 

[RavensGryf]

Aw, Indy is such a cute little thing! Thanks for the update pics

P.s... I'm curious, how is Indy liking that foraging ball you got her several weeks ago? Does she use it?

OMG She LOVES it!!! She's getting pretty good at it, so I started packing the bottom half with shredded paper so she has to get through that before she gets to any treats. It sure keeps her busy, and it's so easy to fill and maintain even on our busy schedule! So worth the money for us

Awwww I just love that! I love how they have all their own little quirks and personalities, it makes them way beyond priceless Indy's tail feathers are always disheveled from being in my jacket all the time lol

Great! Glad to hear she loves it!
I ended up getting Raven one of those wheels that attaches to the side of the cage where you can see inside it and you have to turn it to get the treat out if the one hole. He ignores it I showed him several times how it works, and he does like the kind of treat inside, but he just isn't curious enough to try to get it out. My red bellied is like that too. Takes too much effort for my lazy guys LOL!
Maybe I'll still end up getting the one you have... It looks a bit easier.

That's the one I tried first actually lol I ended up returning it and getting the sphere...way better for Indy! She gives up really easy, and although I also showed her and played with her with the wheel, she had no interest either

I'm surprised a Conure gave up?!
Typically anyway, the Poicephalus and Pionus species that I have are not super active, and considering they're parrots, they're not quite as inquisitive or tenaciously 'into everything' as many species are. It has to be an EASY foraging item, or they will ignore it.

 

[Ashleigh86]

Yea, I'm having to teach her to forage but she's catching on pretty quick! Maybe we will work our way up to the wheel at some point
