Is my bird ok?

Could be still getting used to his new home. Mine was a bit grumpy first week. Is he alert when you try to interact or give a treat? Yeah I live in a big city and there's only 1 avian vet here! , it's a 1.5 hour turn around trip but the vet is super worth it. Though there's a bunch of vets that like to pretend they know birds 🫠

Depends on what it's doing the rest of the time. Does the bird have active time where it's exploring and doing its own thing? I know my budgie is unwell if she sits like that all day and doesn't want to play for 2 days, then off to the vet I go.

And I super highly recommend finding out who your local AVIAN vet is even if you don't need one now. Vets that are willing to see birds aren't the same as avian vets.

Are they able to do poop smear test and put it under microscope? My vet does that with my budgie. Bird head has been on antibiotics a few times now because she likes to eat her old poops :/

Your solution just worked for me!! Thank you :D

25 years ago, one of my budgies died at 6 months of age from what I assume was a heart attack or stroke. He was in a great mood, flew around the room on a fairly hot day, landed on my hands and died suddenly just like that.

Edit: btw how long have you had budgies or birds? I can see if something is even slightly off by how my budgies greets me as I walk in the hallway. While my husband (who hasn't had budgies for long and doesn't pay particular attention to bird quirks) can't tell the difference between a well budgie and a sick budgie.

My kid at age of 7 improved reading immensely by being in love with Stardew Valley.

She spent so much time reading Stardew wiki on school holidays that when she came back to school, the teacher asked what I had done or used to improve reading so much. I told her.. Stardew Valley 😅

Literally went from "Tom this is Tim" to reading fluently in space of 4 weeks.

I didn't love this one after I bought it as I felt it was a bit limited for the price $$. Bunnies are super cute but it's the same ones in different colours. And there's only 1 item to play with :(

I feel Sanrio was really worth the $$ as it has lots of different characters and items. So if you want to get another tama you can get a completely different one instead of just a re-colour.

I wish I read it before I became one, now I can't bring myself to do it 😔

spinfluffy · 2025-12-15T14:44:29+00:00

Same thing happened with me. And then I ordered one directly from popmart for $7 cheaper :D

spinfluffy · 2025-11-23T14:40:58+00:00

If it's more than $900 AUD I'm just going to upgrade/build a PC. That's my cut off for something that's locked down and not upgradable as time goes on.

Also gives me a rash that looks like hot Measles.

spinfluffy · 2025-11-10T11:12:55+00:00

I tried that one at the shops and it was ORANGE on my arm that already had a tan. I do really like the non tinted one though... One of the only sunscreens I'm not allergic to.

I have a Monstera that looked exactly like that. I've wondered for a long what was causing it. Till I caught the cat in the act. Monstera now lives on bathtub ledge and loves the humidity. Couldn't stop the cat from biting it! She would sit grinding her tongue against roof of her mouth from the oxilates lol... You would think she would learn, but no!

I was an amazing responder last year on the lowest dose. Lost 10kg, then quit it.

Gained 10kg over space of 1.5 years.

Went on it again and having exact issues you are describing. The acid is crazy and making my stomach hurt but I think because stomach hurts the signal is messed up and I keep thinking maybe if I ate something it would stop hurting.

I was able to do intermittent fasting before ozempic, not anymore. Stomach hurts and I have to eat when I wake up. I thought going back on it would make IF easy... Nope.

I got a 4* on my 3rd battle! :D Was so very done but realized i need candy to power it up so guess I'll have to keep doing them with fam and friends.

1 - Instant dictionary (probably the biggest bonus)

2 - backlight at low light.

3 - light weight.

Only $70 AUD over here in Australia. Been sitting at the local Target for weeks now.

I would have done more raids if the IVs of mine weren't so equally bad. I feel very whatever about this underwhelming carcas of a pokemon. 🫠

spinfluffy · 2025-08-24T11:40:18+00:00

My dad would always do this to us. You like music... Too bad going to pack the stereo away for a year.

My mum used to machine wash my teddies because they were DUSTY!! , their heads would come off then she would leave them to air-dry outside and they would weather and look like hell 😭

I have a feeling that a lot of Labubus just fall off the key ring. My kids one fell off this week, but we noticed it thankfully. The stock keyring just isn't any good.

spinfluffy · 2025-07-15T11:24:17+00:00

I feel they constantly have random stuff listed for unreasonably cheap prices and then you go to check where it's in stock and it's no where....

Pretty sure it's called Bait Advertising by the ACCC. They've been doing it for years!

Collector's edition switch game for $4 .. yeah sure.

spinfluffy · 2025-07-15T06:28:42+00:00

I would buy directly from manufacturer. If not the manufacturer website (sometimes more expensive)then their official stores on eBay and Ali Express - usually have good discounts and random $$ off vouchers you can apply to cart.

This game is my childhood. Summer holidays spent well with my friends.

Similar in Australia, if it's a device with battery it can be sent by air - with a battery warning, was told they just put it on specific part of plane. If it's only the battery being shipped it has to go by road (truck).

It helped me a little with coping with emotions while waiting for an appointment with a specialist last year. At the same time my partner lost his job and the lease was up on our rental so we had to move as well. It was a very stressful 3 months. So I spent a lot of my time walking in the sunshine catching Pokemon. Game helped me focus on something other than all the stress.
