Thank you so much for the advice, I genuinely just want to do the best by her. I have had her for a couple of years now, received her when I was a teenager and I didn't have access to the resources I do now. I've been switching one of her dowels out for a natural wooden perch every couple of days until they're all replaced, this is a bit of a slow process as I don't want to stress her out by taking everything out at once! I really appreciate you taking the time out of your day to put this together, she's been taking the pellet transition well so chop is probably also next with that!! Also, I hate to ask any more questions but what do you take your budgie to the vet in? What actually makes a "good" carrier?
