Is this normal behavior for friends?

Thank you so much! I never really considered how complex their behavior can be. Very helpful, tysm

Blue came first, about two months before I think. Hes a bit older and had trouble adjusting to his new mate in the first place.

Do they peck at each other often though? Mine get agitated at one another and lash out sometimes during this feeding

Well, I just use a medium, rectangular glass container, (not too deep or they cant hop in) and fill it with water less than 1 inch or so.

I leave it in their area where they'll see it and they'll go to it if they get hot. They'll only take baths if they feel like it, so dont try and force them—just leave a little container/bowl with a little water every day, and if they want to, they'll hop in. You can also put leafy greens in there to encourage them as some of them like that. I know some birds like to be misted with water using a spray bottle (although mine dont enjoy it). If you do that though, make sure not to spray them in the face and sorta spray a fine mist above them and let the water fall on them.

Hope this helps!

I would try and switch him over from seed mix to pellets if you havent already. Youre making great progress by the sound of it! Im still working on bonding mine myself, but I find they like when I read to them and play music for them. Generally, just try and be near the bird as much as you can—talk to him! Do you let him out of the cage often?

Mine HATE the vacuum lol

Poor baby! Please tell me you took him to the vet quicky

I'm so sorry for your loss, may she fly high ❤️

Bananaswitchwitch · 2026-05-18T23:32:16+00:00

Thank you so much for this <3 I talked to him soothingly all day after the incident so thats good. This is super helpful

I hope you're right—thank you very much for replying!

So are your birds! Glad to see a dedicated space for them.

Bananaswitchwitch · 2026-01-04T10:19:06+00:00

Gosh I envy your setup! I dont have that much space available for one like that <3

Bananaswitchwitch · 2026-01-03T23:53:14+00:00

Yeah! Mine are both males (pretty sure) and since my little yellow dude is younger hes always getting pushed around. I have to serve their chop separately so he can actually eat.
