Whenever I give Smokey's cage a full clean-out (once a fortnight - wash the floor tray, wipe down all the bars, soak all his toys, etc etc... the food & water dishes etc get done each day, and he gets new branches each week or so) I make a point of rearranging all his furniture. He sits on the top of his cage while all this goes on, usually with a nice fresh bunch of gum leaves to keep him occupied...It is amazing how just moving a toy he hasn't touched in six weeks to a different spot makes that toy the flavour of the month!

 

My favourite thing about doing one of these cage make-overs is spending the next half an hour (sometimes an hour or more!) just watching him explore the new layout. Exploring, inquisitive budgies are so cute! He's a bit of a clumsy bum too, so that makes the climbing and exploring even more entertaining for me!

 

Yay for budgies!

I agree!! YAY for budgies!!!

I love their natural curiosity and playful personalities

I agree I love it, Merlin recently discovered the toy that hangs with the different types of fruit and since I moved it he LOVES it a little too much.

It is fantastic Mac does the same
