Oh Flock - Blueberry has turned hormonal :(

Kinda funny how a budgie got hormonal over a cockatiel ๐ my budgies (a male and female) used to be super hormonal with each other and mated (thankfully no eggs! ๐ ) but once I got them off of seeds the female hasnโt had any hormonal behavior at all! The male still seems to get a little chattier and tries to regurgitate for her occasionally, but it has never effected my relationship with them.

2022-11-24 04:09:15 +0000 UTCGiving away the other bird is always an option - I wouldnโt take on another bird at the detriment of my own flock. It just isnโt fair and Berryโs quality of life would go down under those permanent circumstances and itโs really unfair to her so Iโd accept that my home wasnโt an ideal one for the new bird because of that and seek a rehome.

2022-11-24 03:48:04 +0000 UTCTHANK YOU! Your sincerity made me cry. Your strength is in allowing us to see behind the curtain and being vulnerable. So glad you got the "old" blueberry back! Thank you for helping us train our "wild" birds while keeping yours on the straight and narrow as well!!
