Misting is great for him!

Hi, and welcome back. Mochi has arrived in puberty, and is displaying hormonal behavior. This does happen at about a year old. He most probably...

Hey! I havent been around for a while but Mochi is all good now! I found out that getting the water just a tiny bit warm is making a great difference...

The seed mix looks great. I am not too sure about a lot of the ingredients as well, but they all sound like they are natural. I especially like that...

Yeah it is strange. I do wonder if a noise wakes them up and they coo. It has been quite windy here lately too. But even on non-windy days I hear a...

I wish we had an avian vet nearby too. We rang the vet clinic an hour away and they are claiming the vet there is not avian certified and that she...

I am surprised Maxollie did not reply to this. She bred budgie before and is usually really good with her advise. I know nothing about mating because...

That is weird they stay up so late after dark. But then I don't know anything about Diamond Doves. I sure do think they are so cute. We have wild...

I am sorry she doesn't seem to be healing. I would hate not having really good vets close by for our birds. We are blessed to have amazing vets here....

Hormones do horrible things to our birds. My daughters sweet boy Tikki who is a conure full on attacked her husband when he reached his first...

The bird seed mix sounds great! So many really good things in it. We use TOPS (Totally Organic Pellets) and love them. It has all good ingredients...

This is one of the big divides in the budgie world and you will hear strong opinions on both sides about seeds vs pellets and the pluses and minuses...

YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I left the cage door open so he can stretch his wings while I watch carefully where I am in relation to him. So I...

I would say the handfeeding and all the attention she had most likely caused her to crave the attention, but that is OK! She will grow out of it. I...

Thank you for the welcome back. We named her Izzy, kind of after Eddie Izzard, since the shop wasn't 100% sure she's female, and well, Eddie's kinda...

Another thought I have today, is that if she was hand fed by the breeder, that too could be causing her to squee more, because baby birds that are...

Awww!!!! She is soooo beautiful!!!! I am sending her hugs!!!!! It is always difficult to judge pictures, when the eyes are a topic, because...

hi Maxollie sorry i have been busy only just had a chance to upload new pics of Snow today Snow really has a gorgeous personality and loves flying...

Hi, and welcome back. Congrats on bringing Izzy into your home! I love that name! The sounds you here are what I call baby sounds. If you were to...

Awww!! I know it is not easy. But, it will get better. I compare the change to a child who suddenly turns an adolescent, and has to try everything...

Thank you for the reply maxollie. You hit every point on the head. Everything you said is exactly what is happening. His "urges" started...

I did have a facebook account a long time ago, I think when it was still a new thing. Around 2007 or 2008. But then I stopped using it after about...

Thanks Ellen and Deanna. So far she still seems the same. Just sleepy all the time. She just sleeps and eats. And again, on Friday she went all day...

Thanks Ellen and Deanna. Diamond doves are very small, so not big like pigeons. I did read online that they need the grit since they do not peel...

Thank you for the advice! I feel like a really nervous semi-new bird owner than anything I guess. They still look very healthy to me and they are...

Whoa, boomer girl, your family sounds wickedly cool! You are right that surveillance is everywhere. I try not to think about it too much because...

Hi Amber, I am late in responding but wanted to say welcome to our forum! I use facebook and love it. My family is spread all around and its...
