(Ozzie is going through a moult and is a little scraggly at the moment)

Moving Day
Recently, Ozzie packed up all of his belongings and moved in with Cooper and Dewey.
The three are getting along well. Ozzie is very popular. If he’s not hanging out with Cooper, he’s hanging out with Dewey. He’s rarely off on his own.
There has been the occasional squabble, but the budgies are doing a great job sharing their food/toys/perches. Cooper seems to have first dibs on everything, though. Hopefully, Sunny will have an easy move as well.
Moving can be exhausting…
Weigh in
I weighed the budgies today (except Sunny – who is not 100% tame yet).
Cooper:
Dewey:
and Ozzie:
In ounces, they are: Cooper – 1.4 oz., Dewey – 1.2 oz and Ozzie 1.1 oz.
The case of the missing throat spot
Someone is missing a throat spot.
Could it be Cooper?
Nope.
Maybe it’s Dewey?
Nope.
I guess that just leaves…
Yep, it’s Ozzie!
Hello!
Ozzie is venturing out more often and is even flying laps around the room (he’s still working on his landing, though). It won’t be long before he’s ready to meet Cooper and Dewey.
Ozzie’s first photo shoot
It was pretty sweet.

But not too far.
Ozzie Update
Ozzie is doing great! We can pat his tummy and we’ve trained him to step up on our fingers. He’s very vocal and loves to chatter along to music. The water faucet also really gets him going.
At night, when we put the cover over his cage, he hops right up on his swingy perch to go to sleep. He’s so cute!
His tail has grown in and he’s put on a little weight. He’s still a tiny little guy, though. Ozzie’s quarantine is finally up. His next step is to move in to my office, where we’ll start taking him out of the cage. Then we’ll introduce him to Cooper and Dewey.
Boz, Oz and Jaws
Finally.
He has a name.
Ozzie!
