Thank you, guys! You are wonderful. Pugsley is wonderful too! I love him to bits. Sweet as can be. Never bites. He loves to eat! Boy does this little guy eat! Lol Likes to whistle while I sing to him. And he is very good at chattering! I cannot believe all the different sounds that come out of him. He certainly can vocalize, so perhaps I will have a talker. Any way, he is a joy! Of course, I have been spending a lot of time with him – mostly talking and singing to him. I think he was missing his brother and the rest of the flock and wanting a lot of companionship. Going from a room of chirping birds to quiet place has been a big adjustment for him. The first day, I would just go to the other side of the room, and he would start calling for me. My little baby birdie was feeling lonely. So, I have been with him a lot. Slowly getting him used to me leaving him for small amounts of time. The breeder gave me some of the seed mix he was feeding him to help transition him over to new food. So, I have gradually been adding hemp, chia and crushed up nutriberries to the mixture. Also, the TOPs mini pellets. He is trying them all. I have lucked out in that department. His little foot is getting better, he is walking around more, scratching his head, and stretching with it, but it is still tender. I’m still trying to keep him grounded in a smaller cage right now. But he wants to fly. Bless his little heart. After he eats, he gets a burst of energy and tries to fly in his cage. Of course, with a sore foot, that is not the best thing. I’m not having much luck stopping him. Any suggestions? I have tried covering the cage, it doesn’t work. He is determined! And I can tell that he has an adventurous streak! (Oh, oh!) Typical parrotlet, when they get an idea about something, they are so stubborn about it. He is so funny; I know when he is going to start flying. He fills up his gas tank (food), stretches his neck, gives a little whistle, looks up and away he goes. One of the doors on the cage he is in now, has a huge door which is about ¾’s of the size of the front of the cage. (Makes it so easy to clean, all cages should have them). A few times, when I have opened that door to remove/give food, water or take a picture, he has made a great escape and flown out! I do not blame him one bit. Not much fun in the cage he is in now. I had to clear almost everything out of it, because he was crash landing into perches, bowls, etc. I do have the bottom of the cage lined with towels for a softer landing. I guess you can’t keep a good bird down for long! Lol So, that is about it for now. He is not trusting of me yet but getting better. That is okay. All good things come to those who wait. Thanks for taking such an interest in Pugsley. It means a lot! 💚 Check out Mr. Pugsley...
