Not sure why I havent posted these yet.
All the birdies are in their bigger cages. All the cages got cleaned out and some new toys were introduced.
They have been back in their big cages for weeks now. I just keep forgetting to post the pictures.
As you can see these pictures should have been posted before the update on Lemon's Journey, cause his belly barely has any fluff on it in these.
Ruby and Turk are doing great together. They snuggle together at night.
Ruby said eat eat when I gave them food yesterday!! And so did Marble.
Marble has feathers missing on his forehead in this picture because he was going through a molt. They have all grown back now. He was a little freaked out at first being back in his bigger cage and kept hiding. But he is slowly staying out for longer periods.

A happy update on Lemon, Lime, and Kiwi. They are loving the bigger cage but more importantly... Lemon is finally getting yellow feathers on his belly and under his wings. He has a few on his back but they look like they may not grow back as well.
All photos of Lemon are gona be fuzzy cause he is sooo fast and doesn't sit in one spot for long.

Ruby said "I love you" today!! I was so happy! He flew around for a few seconds. Then landed on my head. He didnt want to get down. Lol
He also loves to give kisses. 💋😘

Lemon's Journey
Lemon is a bright yellow parakeet that was missing LOTS of his feathers when we first got him in April.
He was stressed and had plucked himself from chest to tail all the way around. He had started on his wings as well.
Soooo happy to say that he has several little feathers popping out on his belly.. He has more growing on his back but he wont let me get a picture.
We are hoping he will be able to grow ALL his feathers back.
Follow along and let's hope he gets his fluff back. 🥰

On April 13th we acquired a trio of parakeets. Meet Lemon, Lime and Kiwi.
(Sorry. I kept forgetting to post about them. Partially because I was waiting to see how they would do.)
The beauties were having an issue with the family cat where they came from. Mostly just staring at them and stressing them out.
Lemon will have his own post also.

Update on Ruby:
We have found out that this silly birdy is a BOY! His favorite place to be is on top of Ella's head. Lol
He is doing great at learning how to fly.

Meet Ruby! (will find out gender soon)
Sweet cuddly little Sun Cheek Conure. That's her with her hatch mates and then her spotting us.
She reminds us of ruby red grapefruit. Lol
She's still a tiny baby right now. Still being hand-fed. Loves to cuddle and loves being in my hair, where she can stay warm.

We really hate that they are having to continue to stay in the small travel cages. But its supposed to get cold again.
Its been consistently warm enough at Mimi and Grampy's house that Dusty started laying eggs. We got them moved into a bigger cage with a nest box and moved Marble into the bigger travel cage that they were in.
Hopefully these eggs will hatch next month. 🤞
