Meet Spock!

spock14

Spock lives in Norway with Else.

556291_10151349924900861_402923252_nMy little man is a spangled yellow and green budgie. He likes music and seems to love jazz, especially if sung by a mellow voiced woman. He also likes manly rumbling voices, explosions on the TV and grapes. So far he seems the quiet type, a little shy but cuddly and playful when he is comfortable.

5702_10151503541180861_1645722566_nSpock seems to love things he can lift and wrestle with. He’s a bit funny about one of his swings though. I’ve put a long stick up in my roof as a perch for him, and a swing dangling near it. He won’t sit on the swing but he loves pushing it back and forth.

Meet Ellie, Oscar and Tucker!

tuelos

These little cuties live in North Carolina with Susan.

Oscar and Ellie came from Craig’s list and looked terrible when I got them. Ellie and Oscar were bonded – but now she is in LOVE with Tucker (but sometimes I will see her snuggling up to Oscar).

Ellie: Her favorite treat is carrots and sweet potato (I hang them from a kabob and she eats and shreds them). Her favorite toy is anything she can shred.

Oscar: His favorite treat is Lafeber’s Avi-cakes. He loves all toys, the kind that spin, bells and mirrors. I think he is VERY intelligent. He will not step-up, but all I have to do is say, “Oscar go in” and he flies right into the cage. He isn’t scared of me or anything – he just doesn’t give in. He hates Gracie (the family cockatiel).

Tucker: His favorite treat is millet and his favorite toy… hmmmm… he just loves Ellie.

Meet Snowy!

snowy1Snowy lives in Staffordshire, United Kingdom.

snowy2Snowy was a shy little thing when we first got her two months ago. Now she is a feisty little hen who chirps up a storm everyday.

She loves hanging out with her pal Nana and taking a bath. She loves anything she can shred and anything with a bell and a jangly noise. Her favourite treats are – yep you guessed it!!! Millet and Cress!! She loves tearing it to shreds straight from the soil.

Meet Winter!

Winter lives in Bangladesh with Rashu.

Winter used to be a selfish and jealous budgie growing up. He would bully Sky and Emmett because I’d play with them sometimes. He’d compete with Emmett by stretching his body to make himself look taller than Emmett, and would kick him down if Emmett managed to look taller.

He likes seeds mainly. He avoids treats but often chows down on spinach with pleasure – and boiled corn.

He’s not fond of any of his toys, but he loves being poked with a feather – he will chase after a feather as I move it around.

Regardless of his selfish nature, he is affectionate towards me and his flock (even if he bullies them). He is obsessed with my nose. That’s probably his favourite activity, nibbling on my nose. lol

Meet Taro!

Taro lives in Washington with Garance. He’s around 4-5 months old and half English budgie.

He loves playing with his toys (especially ones he can shred), singing and hanging out with Felix. He’s shy and a bit clumsy. His favorite foods are millet and broccoli. He used to be tame but now dislikes people.

Snogging his boyfriend, Felix (also a cutie!).

Meet Sparky!

This adorable little budgie lives in Virginia with Deborah.

Sparky loves to play with his bells and disco ball. He also enjoys going over into the “big boys” cage to hang out with Sunny and Shelby. When it’s time for him to go “home”, I roll his cage in front of theirs and tell him “Go back in your own cage now, Sparky” and he’ll hop right in! He has a toy airplane and likes playing on it and loves it when I put a little seed or a bit of millet in the “cargo” area for him to find.
