I went to the pet shop to buy some MORE stuff for his royal highness, The Blink. :D I got him a cholla perch ($16!!!!!!!) and a little rop perch as well as some plastic veggie clips and the most hilarious plastic budgie i've ever seen....it's SOOOOO tiny!!! It was only $1 so i mainly brought that for my own amusement. :(Laughing out loud): Anyway, just when i had started getting some more money....i'm broke again! :wub:

 

I'm very pleased with the cholla perch despite it's cost because it appears to have a SAFE stainless steel rod through it (Polly's Pet Products) and the lady at the pet shop pointed out that it's great for stuffing treats in the little holes to keep your birdy occupied! I never would have thought of that. :P

Well i hope Blinks decides that the cholla perch is not out to get him. He won't sit on it...i've hung his mirror above it but all that's achieved is an upside down budgie. :D If he'll sit on it i can poke stuff in it for him to find when i'm at school. :wub:

I took some photos of Blinkie's cage all rearranged with the new stuff in it.

He's sitting on the new rope perch...i really like this type of rope perch cause it doesn't seem to have a wire through it so it's so easy to twist into more interesting shapes and stuff, it also doesn't push at the cage bars so much which helps to keep them in the right shape.

Side view. Blinks is still up in the corner head bopping his bell.

And another angle. :rolleyes:

That's an interesting looking perch, and Blinkie seems to have gotten over it quite quickly :P I like it :D

Awww, Blinkie looks very happy!

 

I spoil my budgies way too much too - Piccolo is always chewing and destroying her toys so I keep having to buy more!

 

Not to be a downer, but I just wanted to warn you about the rope perch. I got my birds one and Tweety got his foot stuck in it. Luckily my mom was around and heard him squawking and released him but he was limping for a while. Just wanted to let you know!

I have read if they are frayed their nails can get stuck. We have one and I keep an eye on it, if it gets washed alot it would probably get frayed.

:D Knowing that Blinks is such a little character and seeing how he doesn't react to well to feathered friends, I automatically thought of him when i saw this toy online..

I thought it was just too cute and i could picture Blinks giving it a bit of a touch up :blink:

Cheers :beer:

There's Blinkie in front of it to hopefully show you just how tiny it is.

:D OH MY! that sure is one tiny budgie :blink: I'm amazed Blinks even gets to play with it, id imagine that might be something you would hoard and keep to yourself :D

That site the tweety was on is a really great site actually, it has LOADS of things on there and for someone like me (out bush) its a great place to stock up on things at :P

Um, excuse me, Bea. But you said you rearranged the cage. So what is that swing doing in the same spot then?

 

Did you think we'd just forget about the swing? :devil:

 

:P: :P: :P: :P: :P: :P:
