Pellets.

Posted on October 21, 2012 by Michelle M.

We recently added pellets to the budgies’ diet. I’ve read great things about Harrison’s, so we’re using the Harrison’s High Potency Super Fine Formula. After 6 months we switch to the Adult Lifetime Formula.

On the first day, Dewey was so angry at the switch he almost dumped the food bowl over. I wish I had a video of it. The pellets stay in the cage all day and we feed them seed twice a day. So far, the pellets remain untouched. But I hear persistence and patience win out in the end. We’ll see…

Cooper’s Favorite Things

Posted on September 24, 2012 by Michelle M.

Oprah Winfrey and Maria von Trapp aren’t the only ones who have favorite things.

This beautiful bowl (handmade by Cooper and Dewey’s friend, Steven) is perfect for snacking when the budgies are out of their cage – especially when that snack is millet.
