Hello and thank you both, Mitch & Catherine, for your Birdie Brunch each Sunday.
I just lost my beloved Fred (a parakeet) and not sure what happened. I was very close to him, as was my other parakeet, Eddie.
Dear Catherine,
Omar and Milo are not playing with those wonderful toys.
I’m thinking that the breeder that turns the young budgies over to the animal shelter had probably never exposed them to toys before and they don’t know how to play.

When I took in a rescued Moluccan cockatoo he had 3 large sores and no feathers on his chest.Â
We provided him with a 4’×4’×6′ aviary cage with bird lighting, an open window to allow filtered afternoon sun for him to sit in, toys in the 1/3 to 1/2 upper part of the cage, and lots of rope and solid perches.Â

He’s new to our family. I’m afraid to try to put him back in the cage, he may have unwanted reactions. The place is safe for him and closed, and he’s still in his cage now.
