My Lovies

Leyla (WF violet) and Nin (dutch blue) foraging and being cute:)

This is when I first put them in their cage (after breakfast) so they're not really hungry, just excited to forage. Throughout the day they'll eat more and waste less lol.

Edit: Wow the quality was way better before I uploaded. You can't really see the words now, oh well.

Where did you get that toy with the cups and the net 'perch'?? they ook soooo awsome!!!

[love4birds]

Actually I made those:) The cup toy is just three paper condiment cups (found at a restaurant supply store) on string and separated by beads. The net instructions can be found on: cheepparrottoysntips(dot)com under 'knots':)

@love4birds: Oh cool! Thank you very much!! Im going to be sure to make onna those. Is it safe for the birds if they chew on it? o.o

[love4birds]

As long as the cups aren't waxed it should be fine:)

Hi:) I started by attaching the bottle directly above their bowl and showing them that water comes out of the spout. When I noticed they figured it out, I set the bowl at the bottom of the cage and kept the bottle higher up, eventually taking the bowl out altogether, except for baths of course! My guys picked it up pretty quickly, but some birds can take longer.

how do you teach the birds to drink out of the water bottles?
