Well the three are still here as their new mom and dad's house project is going slower than they want. They're having issues getting their contractors going. We still don't know if they'll take one or two babies. I hope two.
Jellybean has become quite a goofball and when it's dinner time if I"m not moving fast enough he's recently started flying onto my head to get me moving quicker I suppose. All three of them are stinkers as they're all flighted, but at dinner time, they all land on top of their cage and line up and wait for me to pick them up one by one to put them in front of their dinner bowls.
I cleaned their cage the other day and changed their perches around just to get them used to change and boy did they not like that. As I put them in their cage they all flew like like little bats. Once I managed to get them all back in they began exploring and enjoying themselves. I added a couple new toys and one of those spiral stretchy plastic perches with toys strung on it. They love, absolutely love that thing. Right away they all got on it trying to walk along it. I think it's good for them to learn to move on one of these things.
Jellybean says "Pretty bird" alot now. Pretty much all day long. Starburt is really the people lover and will land on a perch right in front of my face as if to say "Here I am, notice me" It's going to be hard when they go. I thinl I might be keeping Skittles. She's so quiet and I can't picture her anywhere else but here. She would definately need to be in a home with another tiel that's for sure
I'll let ya know as soon as they go to their new home, whenever that is.

Aaaw - that sounds wonderful and yes, I'm sure you will feel an emptiness when they go, but maybe Skittles will help to fulfill that hole....
Thanks for posting and keep in touch..... smile.gif

Well the interesting thing is they don't know if they want one or two. They said they're going to let the bird choose them. In my opinion, that would not be Jellybean. he's his own person and like I said King Kong. Starburst will probably choose them. She's a darling and loves people, soooo if they only take one and let the bird choose them, Jellybean will be available. He's quite vocal and I'm sure would be happy to oblidge you on the Andy Griffith tune. BTW my IRN Ringo whistles that. hee hee

My step son is back from Iraq for a short leave and will be here tomorrow all day so I've been cleaning and getting ready. Tomorrow evening I'll download what I have on my camera and get those on here
