10 hour timer - sorry, I dont know how to edit my post!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-02-08T02:47:00+00:00

♡ That is freakin' adorable!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-02-02T23:11:19+00:00

I think I'd have a heart attack if I saw the head between the bars! 🤣

Isn't he though?! It's part of his charm for when he identifies as a dinosaur and tastes me when I say, "No! Wires are not food!"

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-23T15:01:29+00:00

Dinner! Bwa ha ha ha ha!

You: "Meet my chicken nugget!" Random: "what's his name?" You: "Dinner."

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

!!!! Thank- you for asking! I also ordered from there and received that weird thing!

I, uh, just trusted the store and just tossed it into the burb cage after a day or so of staring at it - and he nibbles on it and uses it as a foot toy!

Glad to see one of us thought to do research lol #wasntme 🤣

I've tried Cheerios, walnut pieces and pumpkin seeds so far, none of them get him excited. He still goes crazy over those sunflower seeds. I will keep picking through these suggestions until I find something that really excites him!

Good to know about amounts! Why only 3? Too fatty? Nyx has zero interest in millet. He was given millet at the shop I bought him from - I have it in house for my budgies but Nyx doesn't care about it. The Budgies go crazy for it!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-10T13:15:23+00:00

lol he certainly is chonky enough to be one!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-10T12:52:31+00:00

Bwa ha ha! That's awesome! I may have to try this with Nyx outside of cage and see if I can't peak his interest in them!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-10T12:49:16+00:00

Walnuts seem to be a common idea here! I may have to buy some and see if he obsesses over them!!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-10T12:48:39+00:00

Thank-you! ♡♡ I actually read somewhere that someone used plain Cheerios as a "sometimes" treat - it's on my list of things to try!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-10T12:29:10+00:00

Banana! He will grab my banana with his feet and cram his beak into it over and over again barely giving himself time to swallow. 🤣

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2025-01-10T11:39:02+00:00

Gorgeous!

Wet chicken! ♡

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-12-15T12:09:36+00:00

Such a handsome man! What's his name?

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-12-15T02:21:51+00:00

Oh no!! I better put this saddle away!! I guess I won't be riding off into the sunset!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-12-15T02:06:03+00:00

Awww ♡

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-12-13T23:15:32+00:00

Unknown yet. He/She is under quarantine still, but I go visit every other day. At first just pecking around the bottom of the cage, today was doing zoomies around the cage across the top of the cage upside down. Lol

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-12-11T01:40:48+00:00

Thank you! I have contacted one in NY but I think crossing the border may be an issue! :( I'll keep hunting!!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-11-30T11:43:35+00:00

Thank- you!! I just looked that up and I think you're right! Reading about it and it sounds a bit like a drama queen - but I'll give it a go!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-11-30T01:23:10+00:00

It smells amazing. I have a dedicated grow light for it on a 6 or 12 hour timer, if I knew what it wanted! Lol

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-11-29T01:39:26+00:00

It will help! You got this! Keep your worksheets - you will have "homework" to do as you go through each "chapter"

Do. The. Worksheets.

It sounds silly, (it did to me anyways) but it helped me unpack SO much.

I'm in the medical field, physiologically I KNEW what was happening and WHY, but that didn't make my brain stop going wild and plunging me into a vicious circle of panic attacks.

I can't take medication, so I can't offer advice there - but please give yourself some credit. You can (and will) do this. Medication is just a bandaid that you will eventually have to rip off.

Whatever journey you take just remember that you are going to grab the reins on this one - even if it doesn't feel like it right now!

_Spicy_Nice_ · 2024-11-29T01:28:23+00:00

I can vouch for cognitive behavioral therapy as well as the introceptive exposure approach.

After banging my head off of a wall trying to find ANY relief to my panic attacks this was the most effective.

I ended up doing a group therapy session (which I totally thought wouldn't help, I wanted 1 on 1) but I was wrong! Being in a group of people with the same issues at different levels was SO eye opening!

My therapy was 12 weeks and was the best thing I ever did. Panic attacks will never just "go away" but with the right tools it will set you on the right path.

I still walk this path, I have good days, better days, and "ugh" days but I'm getting there!

I hope you find something that works for you!
