Posted May 28, 200520 yr I've been limiting the amount of celery i've been giving Blinkie in the hope that he might try something new. He's had a little nibble of apple, a chew of alfalfa sprouts, he cautiously sampled some lettuce and he also tried a teeny bit of snow pea sprouts. Today i decided to let him have some celery leaves, they're his favourite food in the whole world. Well, he obviously had been missing it! Look at how excited he got..... "Ah....my good friend celery!" "Oooo....how i've missed you!!" "I'm gonna eat you up..." :grbud: Where's Blinkie??? Where's Blinkie??? There he is!!! Is that still a budgie????? "Time for a break i think!" "And a little itty scratch." :(Laughing out loud): Nice hair dude! The whole time he was making out with the celery he was making these little overwhelmed tweets! They were so cute! Hehe....i think we need a celery addicts support group!

May 29, 200520 yr Bea they are such funny pictures!! :(Laughing out loud): :(Laughing out loud): Blinkie is such a funny little guy..I always look forward to his pics and hearing about his latest antics!! (Laughing out loud) :(Laughing out loud):
May 29, 200520 yr Merlin thinks being made to eat celery leaves is nearly as much of an injustice as being medicated! :(Laughing out loud): His whole body shudders and he spits it out.
May 30, 200520 yr Author Bea they are such funny pictures!! :(Laughing out loud): :(Laughing out loud): Blinkie is such a funny little guy..I always look forward to his pics and hearing about his latest antics!! (Laughing out loud) :(Laughing out loud): <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well his latest 'thing' is sitting on my nose when i watch TV in the dark! I have a scratch on the side of my nose because he held on too tight.
May 30, 200520 yr Bea, because of your gorgeous pictures I decided to buy my birds some celery. None of us people like celery, so my poor darlings have never had any. I chucked in whole stalks of it, and I can't believe how crazy they've gone for it! Gypsy likes leaves, but Scruffy is attacking the stalk with gusto! The lorikeet and weero have turned their noses up, but my finches are very happy too!
May 30, 200520 yr Author I wonder what it is about celery??? Maybe it's like drugs for budgies? :(Laughing out loud):
May 30, 200520 yr Hope your nose is better today Bea :(Laughing out loud): :(Laughing out loud): :(Laughing out loud):
May 31, 200520 yr Author Hope your nose is better today Bea :(Laughing out loud): :(Laughing out loud): :(Laughing out loud): <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah...except i accidently scratched the cut because i thought it was some dirt or something. Hehe. my budgies love grapes and corn.....they just roll in any green leaf i give them (Laughing out loud) funny little yemmers :nest: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wish Blinkie would roll in any leafy thing....but he's only interested in celery. :glare:
March 9, 200619 yr Blinkie is so cute. All my budgies love just celery too now - there must be something in celery what makes them love it so much :hap:
March 9, 200619 yr Author I should buy him some celery tonight in the grocery shopping, he hasn't had it in several weeks. And maybe Ozzie will be keener on celery leaves than he is on snowpea sprouts.
