OK so attempt two. Not my attempt The budgies insist.

I just had a huge scare.

I turned on my ring camera that looks at my cages and saw....the GCC was out in the flock unattended, it had escaped.

I told my boss I have to go and he said sure.

Got home, the two older babies were not in the box.

I was like shit, and started looking for dead bodies.

Blue one...was on the second shelf of the bookcase about 8 foot behind the front entrance of the box.

Second one greenish one found seeking refuge behind a comforter beside the back door.

Both are back in the box. But they can at least glide and the blue one either glided well or flew up to the second shelf. No injuries seen.
 
I'm guessing once they were outside the mystery box the GCC lost interest. That or the Sun conure defended them.
 
Glad things worked out. Any way to monitor your babies flight attempts?

I'm going to take them out later and maybe put on a low box, see if they fly or flap off down? I don't know how long they were out so letting them get fed.

So you're at the OMG/how did you do..m toddler stage?
 
I suppose
 
Yes however after the GCC did take a beak to the blue one so it has some blood on it. This was after they were back in the mystery box. He will be fine I washed most off. you can see it here if you zoom in, I brought them out and was like ok...then I was like WTF? So green cheek is back in jail.

Also legs still kinda splayed but working on that still.

Need name IDEAS something DC might be superman himself first baby I ever raised.
 
Blue one still outside the box....think he likes it out here. Sorry I'm posting so much I'm excited.
 
The Quaker and sun conure are giving it a wide birth, at first curious now they are like ok....He can live.
 
yeah but he should be fine. Especially now out of the mystery box and a full fledged member of the flock. The green one should only be a few days behind.
 
father and sons now......green one can fly also.

Yeah I need to clean it but this is where I put the veggies and fruit so it catches more stuff.

How long till I can completely remove their box.
 
Budgies sleeping outside tonight. Hope the parents teach them where food comes from. The smallest one is still safe in his box with mom zebra.
 
Ah yes, the chaos of having baby birds. Gods, I miss having baby cockatiels and Conures!
