I quite like him :)

Sleepy green floof :)

Ahh, ok. so it sounds like a light roasting or steaming is the happy medium for safety and texture(y)

Floofs :)

Thanks! I got a misting bottle for him that he appears to not actively hate :)

So, he's also quite the chatterbox. But only when he can't see me. The minute that I come into view, he clams up. I have had cage facing away from me and the back is covered with a PVC tablecloth. He was just non-stop with the noises. Whistling, "kisses", "Hi!" and other random noises. He...

I know that sweet potato is something that’s good for Linnies (and parrots in general), and that it can be cooked a number of different ways. However, my bird seems to really prefer it raw so that he can really get the most out of it. Are there any downsides to offering raw sweet potatoes? He...

Do your Linnie’s seem to prefer lukewarm or cool water for their baths?

It’s not the clearest thing ever, but it’s only his second day of talking :) Hi!

Building some station training flight confidence. He has also taken to my son’s head 😁 Also some content beak grinding.

I would do longer than taller, so maybe 10x6x6? This way you should be able to reach everywhere in the space by walking into it, and it helps give them a longer flight runway.

;)

He’s so spoiled :p Thankfully, he has warmed up to exploring most of it! He isn’t a fan of the flat perches though, so those may come out.

I’ve even considered two cages and another amicable species like a ‘tiel or a Kak (would lean tiel, honestly. Already have the heavy duty hepa air purifier ;)). Obviously not to live in the same cage, but potentially as a bird buddy with alternating times out until they are cool with each...

Agreed, I don’t really use it at all, it was an on-the-fly thing. It actually started because I whistled at something, and he followed suit (even though he could see me ;)). The clutch wasn’t a great success. Of the five, one is viable. The parents didn’t sit very well for whatever reason even...

We’ve apparently developed a contact call for each other :ROFLMAO:

#foraging Working our way through a carrot to get at the Black Soldier Fly larvae and Birdtricks pellets beneath.

How does the Virkon compare with a chlorohexidine solution?

I'm still quite new to this, but here's mine: Daily change of the packing paper and paper towels on the cage floor Weekly scrub of perches and such with white vinegar Weekly scrub of any befouled cage parts with white vinegar Daily swap of waterers and chop bowls Every-other-day swap of pellet...
