I'm glad we have this video, as once the wings grew back, this never happened again. For that matter, she is totally yellow now, as you might see in later videos posted. From what we can figure she is a mottle. very rare.

EVERYONE gets out of the cage to fly around the living room in the evening for 2-3 hours, (all 8) and most are ready to go to bed when it's time. they have routines like humans, and it's important to let them out to get exercise. they will live longer, again like humans.

This was a result of having her wings clipped because she was in the pet store. she's determined to fly and because of this, she made perfect backflips. she doesn't do this anymore. she flies around with the rest of the flock, so she still is a very stubborn, determined bird still. she also changed color, and is almost all yellow, which happened after her first molt. I'd never have their wings clipped, though fiona just got her toenails clipped, as they were getting long.

that is soooo cute!!....i wonder if they do that in the wild....XD...

[snarfdude]

Likely not.

The truth that we can best figure out is that because her wings were clipped at the pet store, that she's trying to fly but ends up doing back flips. It's fascinating because she does do perfect backflips as the result. For those concerned, she does not do this anymore as I do not believe in clipping wings and as other videos show, her wings did grow back and she flies around like the rest.

This also shows her determination to fly. She didn't give up and now flies well.

Im glad to see you dont clip their wings :) We have 4 budgies, 3 we got together as brother and sisters, when we got them as babies they had broken toes from trying to fly and just falling :( theyre well loved now though and can fly around too :)

I think this might be Fiona's way of saying, "Not tonight, Peridot..."

I like the way she used backflips to karate kick the other one.
