On the weekend I had to give Stubby's cage a thorough clean out so I put him in Chucky's cage while i finished. I have been wanting to put them together for a while now so thought this would be a perfect opportunity to see how they reacted to the move.

 

This is Stubby in his new home.

 

This is Chucky just letting Stubby know she is boss

 

(I will post some more pictures later)

 

 

Anyway Stubby has lived in that cage ever since and we have had minimal upsets and only a few tantrums when it comes to sharing. They have both been very good.

 

I was worried that Chucky would not want to come out of her cage if she had company in there but she still goes bananas at the cage door when she wants to come out and play.

 

Yesterday we left the cage door open for Chucky but Stubby decided he wanted to go on an adventure. I was quite worried as he has never been outside of his cage. (He is a very nervous and timid little character) He climbed all over the outside of the cage and chewed on some rope and looked awfully proud of himself...........until i had to go to work.I couldn't get him to go back in!!!!!! He took off and went plop to the floor!!! The poor baby. I picked him up finding it awfully difficult because he has this really bad habit of spreading his wings so you can't grip him. Finally after a struggle and 3 chunks taken out of my finger, I managed to get him back in. I don't know who was more worse for wear me getting worried that I had hurt the little bugger and my poor finger or the scare that he would have gotten from being held. Since then he has stuck his head out the door but runs away pretty fast.

 

I wish you all could meet Stubby just so you could understand him. I wonder what his previous owners were like......

A happy new beginning. I was going to say a happy ending, but it really could be the beginning of something beautiful.

I hope so. They are sooooo cute together.

they are so cute together

They look like they are going to be good friends . I really like Chucky's colour.

Thank you zebra. Chucky is a really gorgeous turquoise green. Her feathers really shimmer in the sun I have never seen a budgie i didn't think was cute
