Tiki is starting to get just like my daughter used to be when she was young. We had to fight with her to get her to go to bed. She was always afraid she was going to miss something I reckon.

Well, as of the last few days, I'm seeing signs of this with Tiki. The last few days when ever it is getting close to bed time, he gets so sweet, sugar wouldn't melt in his mouth. Like wanting to play kissy face and wanting me to scritch the back of his neck, which he has never let me do before. Plus when I tell him it's bed time, he wants to move away from his cage when I try to get him to go inside. He even holds onto my finger with one of his feet as if to say don't leave me. It makes me fell kind of bad like when I used to have to force my daughter to go to be hahahahaha.

It's like having another child.
 
lmao reserve a good treat for bed time, nuts treat is dinner with us, she knows once we are about to eat she's gonna go into her sleep cage :) we have to put her in mind, but we dont have the pacing or the woa begone looks lol
 
Funny, we all go through this and you just get so frustrated haha!

Cal now goes in and tries to close her cage door and says: Ni night!

How I miss my little "what's goooiiiinnnn ooonnnn?" nosy bedtime antics girl haha!
 
Gandalf always used to know it was bedtime when I would turn off the TV.

He would say "time to go to bed" over and over, and then do vertical laps inside his cage...he clearly didn't want to go to bed either. Just like a little kid. But I'd check on him....he'd be sound asleep 10 minutes later.....again, just like a little kid.

I always wondered about the vertical lap thing, but Bitty does it too. She does NOT want to go to bed. LMAO, when I'm in bed, I can hear her "strumming" the cage bars with her beak (grabbing one, and pulling...boingggg). She can do this 20-30 times when she's really ticked about having to go to bed.
