Getting Him To Interact?
Oh Andrew ... Sometimes they talk away and stop when you listen too... Do you look at him when you are talking to him? Maybe his is shy to 'talk' around you??? Try doing another task near him... computer, chores etc... and talk to him but not actually look at him. You could also record your self talking as you would to him, and play it back to him when you're out.

Budgie Needed
Hugs on your loss. Your poor hen. I'm glad you found a great Avian vet though. Good luck on your search for a new hen. :rofl:

Colour Suggestions Anyone?
I'm in two minds... I agree the cream would make it look much bigger, but a darker colour wouldn't show up as much dirt and dust.
-
New Cage
I would say yes... 1/2" is recommended, which is 1.2cm. I'd be worried they'd get their head stuck when I was not home! Pet shops do have a tendancy to try and sell they stock they have!!! :rofl:

Unexpected Budgie
Firstly, I'd remove the mirror. She will bond with it instead of you The fruit and veggies is a slow process, just give her a little at a time... try different methods too, dicing, grating, poking through bars... some birds like their veggies served differently. My aviary birds love corn on the cob, my inside birds don't know what to do with it . Also, with her sitting on you and getting used to you... she will get there. Elly has an excellent taming piece in the FAQ's that might help you... again, it takes time and patience.

Taping Toes
Agree with Liv... The white tape you use to strap 'people' injuries.
-
New Cage
Sounds good... can we see it???? If you don't want to use the open top, just use black cable ties to shut it permanently

Colour Suggestions Anyone?
I'm trying to picture it from when I was there... mmm, I think terricotta would be nice... I hate introducing too many colors as it looks messy, but with the roof and driveway edge that colour, I think it would look nice and be a good contrast with the cream/blonde of the bricks and black of the trimming.

The Girls Are Growing Up...
Thanks everyone. My girls are my life (along with my reptilian boys). They're about 4 1/2 months old now and going through their first moult. It's great to spend time with them and watch them play.
