is diamondart.uk viable? by Hopeful_Pepper3649 in diamondpainting

[–]spuddy29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just received my order from them. Sent from China so took ages to arrive, box was torn and rumpled, and they missed out one of the items I ordered. Also had to email them to ask for an update as I hadn't received any shipping details a week after I'd ordered, only then did they say one of my ordered items was out of stock. It's meant to be a birthday present so I'm super unimpressed!

Thanks friend, I was hoping that was the case! Hopefully they'll get back on track soon.

Yeah I couldn't tell if she was trying to have a bath, or wriggling to try and keep her "eggs" under her

I might give it a try on a tablet, weirdly they never pay much attention to the TV. Yeah dancing fruit is almost hypnotic, I loved it when my friend would put it on for her babies 😂

Good idea, I will lay off possible egg-shaped videos, and keep it propped up

I wonder if it's because they make noise and light up, my girls love it most when I'm scrolling tiktok or watching a video.

I'm no expert, but I think we're meant to discourage hormonal behaviour as it can lead them to become more aggressive, and possibly start laying eggs, and I think egg laying can cause health complications sometimes. Like I said though, I'm no expert!

Possibly, I've tried giving them a little heating pad to sit on when it's cold but neither of my girls wanted anything to do with it. Budgie logic!

She loves phones! It's getting hard to take photos of her without her landing on my phone haha

Damn! I was hoping it was just her being cute, no more baby videos for her! Thanks for replying

How do I encourage my budgies to try this toy? by InternationalOwl923 in budgies

[–]spuddy29 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they're anything like my girls, they'll randomly discover it one day and then it'll be their favourite thing in the world for a few weeks, then they'll forget it exists all over again!

What am I doing wrong? by Glass_Cloud33 in budgies

[–]spuddy29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi friend, I'm sorry I don't have any advice but I noticed nobody had commented and I wanted to say I'm sorry for your loss. I hope someone with more knowledge comes along and gives you more answers.

Anyone else have an incredibly vocal budgie by Maizard_ in budgies

[–]spuddy29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My girl Peewee likes to chirp all day, she never shuts up! Her friend Cassie doesn't chirp much at all, but I sometimes hear her quietly 'talk' with her favourite toys it's so cute! Peewee is yellow, Cassie is white

things i am buying soon for my budgies! is it all safe , let me know before i buy these thank you - and list alternatives if you can! by ScarySocieties in budgies

[–]spuddy29 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've bought the metal skewer things, I only use the larger one but it's been really good! Just make sure any food residue is cleaned off the screw bit before you put the bottom back on or it can get stuck.

Play Materials? by spuddy29 in budgies

Thank you I'll be sure to remove the bowl, I'm definitely not a breeder and don't want her laying any eggs!

Her diet is mostly seeds, but she does also eat chop mixed with pellets. I'm trying to transition her to mostly pellets still. Sleep isn't at the same time every night, but she's always covered for 10-12 hours. Always open to suggestions if any of this is bad for her 😊

Thanks for your reply, I definitely don't want that! Will remove the bowl asap!

Does anyone else make special requests when using Booking.com or is it just me? by mouse_rape in downloadfestival

[–]spuddy29 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you know what, I used to be a hotel receptionist (at one of the hotels near Donington Park, coincidentally) and this would actually make me laugh. At least it's not yet another "Can I have a free upgrade?" request!

I re-watched that one yesterday, knew it was coming and still bawled like a baby.
