It's really warm just now and its proving to be a bit much for wee Oscar!! We couldn't open any of the windows and he decided to fly about like a loony! He looks really skinny and he kept lifting his wings up to cool down! silly sausage!!

 

 

Phew its hot in here!

 

He is a cutie

 

He doesn't like to bath?

oh sweet, have you offered him a bowl of water or lettuce leaves?

WHOA!!!

 

I never would have thought that was Oscar! This picture makes him look paler blue, and VERY old (Laughing out loud) . Hes SOO GORGEOUS THOUGH!! :ausb: And i agree... try wet leaves, or small bath water. If he doesnt like those, mist him with plant mister. Either way, it will help him cool down and make min moult quicker and better

 

Kirb

Oh, he's so cute Mine have been doing that too! It's been really, really hot down here.

 

I'm sure all you Aussies are quite used to it, but I and my budgies just aren't used to 28C temperatures. I've had to keep misting my two to keep them cool. Ali and Oscar must be even less used to it; Scotland's not entirely renound for its fine weather! :ausb:

awww he is a sweetie

:ausb:

:ausb: Poor Oscar, I know the feeling, my birds looked like that last week as well, 32 degrees.

thanks guys!!

ive tried the bowl with lettuce leaves but he wont have a bath in it - he just pulls the leaves out and drinks the water - i leave thge bowl every day just in case he changes his mind. he sometimes likes a bath but only under a running tap! he;s very fussy!

 

kirby - yeah its not a very good picture. his nose (oops i mean cere) is just turning from a purply colour to blue now and he is moulting so he has starting to lose his head bars. he's not a baby anymore. in real life hes actually a lighter blue than in that picture - kind of sky blue.

 

Jannette you are so right!! we always get rubbish weather! its not really sunny here though just hot which is totally rubbish - cant even get a tan!! :ausb:

 

thanks for all your suggestions guys.
