Since i got Ozzie i've been convinced that he's a lump of cuteness that does nothing but sit and stare. The last couple of days i've noticed him playing....but not the type of playing i'm used to. Blinkie's idea of playing is dashing around, being noisy and slamming toys against the cage bars. So of course Ozzie seemed silent compared to him. Ozzie's idea of playing is gently nibbling and pulling at strings and other toys. He seems to enjoy himself so much aswell! I got Blink and Oz some new toys today (yes, more :hap:) and i've given them all to Ozzie for now cause they're 'quiet' toys. He loves them and i'm hoping that if Blinks sees Oz playing with them he'll learn to like them too. This method of thinking seems to have worked so far cause Blinkie's already playing with toys he's never touched in his life!! :(Laughing out loud):

Just goes to show you can teach an old Blinkie new tricks!

Our bird isn't the toy playing Bea.... and its been worrying me

While out of the cage, he will happily fly around, but in the cage he just sits, he will climb round for his food and water and thats about it.

He won't touch none of the toys..... so pleased in away there is another budgie that just sits and stares...

Can you post some piccies of the new toys you have bought and hopefully I can find something simular here.

 

I love the discription of he's a lump of cuteness... as that sums up our Buds

Aww, how sweet. I think though, that Blinkie will influence Ozzie to be noisier

Isn't it amazing how they follow one another. In my flock it just takes one brave soul to try something and then they are all game.

Well, now I've only had my little one for about three weeks but I've got him/her to play with toys, eat all kinds of salads and greens and take a bath by using my fingers to play with them. He thinks my finger is another bird, I guess, and I can get him to do anything by making my finger look like it's having a great time either eating, bathing or playing. He can't stand it and has to come over push my finger out of the way and see what's so great :-)
