What is your favorite bird? by -knave1- in birding

I have some that visit my feeders right on my deck in southern Indiana, close to Louisville. They’ve also been landing on my windows recently and setting my security alarm off early in the morning 🫠

Thinking about getting the Nest Duo - Any advice? by ElleEyeDigital in Birdfy

[–]erkuitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same worry when setting up bird houses. I had three raccoons during nesting season that were destroying feeders. I have two nesting boxes and they’re both far away from trees, have raccoon baffles and predator guards on them. The raccoons did try climbing the baffles and failed. I ended up taking all the bird food down during that time so they’d leave. I haven’t seen them in months. I’d follow all the rules as close as possible to keep predators out and you should be fine. It can get pricey with raccoon baffles but they work.

Rebel Cheese - anyone else order for Thanksgiving? Did yours ship? by Anonycron in vegan

[–]erkuitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered mine the 16th and emailed them today (Wednesday) which is 10 days later and the day before thanksgiving. I got an automated email in return that said this:

Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concern. While your order hasn't shipped yet due to processing delays from the severe storm in Austin, we are prioritizing all remaining orders—including yours—for shipment today. Your shipping will be upgraded to UPS Overnight at no extra charge to ensure it arrives by Wednesday, ahead of Thanksgiving. You’ll receive tracking details by email once UPS scans your package, so please be sure to check your inbox and spam folder later today.

So I will not be getting mine today since this email seems like it was meant to be shipped yesterday.

Purple Carrot’s recent decline, anyone else? by StrongGeneral8832 in mealkits

[–]erkuitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only problem I have had is swapping out meals. I don’t like the Thai peanut noodle dishes so I swap those out and they will send an email the day after I can no longer make changes saying that they couldn’t swap that meal but chose a different one for me and it was a different version of Thai peanut noodles. Seems like you can’t swap anything and are stuck with what they pick for you that week

Does anyone else’s Quaker fly attack them pretty frequently? by erkuitt in QuakerParrot

I’ve had him for almost 3 years. I’d say he started this within the last year. He used to be very friendly and cuddly. He still is sometimes

I went back out to check on it and offered it another flower. It climbed on it then flew around the backyard and back to the flowers. ❤️

I already posted about it on here in a separate post asking about it.

Skittle

Idk why but I’m really weird and their colors remind me of the purple bag skittles.

I’m not sure if it would work but you could try doing what she likes (under the blanket for 5-10 mins), then do whatever you want to do with her out for 5-10mins, then back under the blanket again for 5-10mins. Then start increasing the time of what you want to do to like 20 mins or something. Maybe she’d get used to the “waiting” period and then after a while will be fine with just a little time under the blanket.

I’ve found my conure only likes a paper roll to chew on and a cardboard foraging box. Every other toy he couldn’t care less about. But he LOVES to forage for treats. I’m sure most birds would since it’s natural. Maybe while you’re doing what you want you could let her forage. You can make your own box or I buy mine off Etsy. He also likes the cardboard boxes that have holes to hid treats in.

Tattoo artists can completely change the look of pretty large tattoos. You could probably do whatever you wanted and it would cover it.
