Oh my goodness ive just weighed him, and given him a Scully health check. (the best i can with my knowledge) i was checking more for tumors, but i think its all fat. he weighs a huge 89grams poor baby, hes so cuddly as well, considering hes been in the avairy hes really quite tame. Hes been stepping up on my fingers and does not mind a stroke and a kiss. I shall weigh Harvey later see what the difference is, hes quite a bit bigger than Willam , but i cant see him as heavy as that.

Well sadly i am, he really must weigh as much as my Tiel Kaeci. Graham Green who cant fly is fitter and smaller than that I changed my seed mix, and the new one has more wheat and barley in it, maybe hes been pigging out on the bigger seeds. The others look fine on it. When i went in the avairy today, i looked at Lennies Beak and thought 'OH NO! What has he done. All over his beak and feet was what i thought was dried blood. Checking around all the other birds were fine, then Sugar had the same! Then it dawned on me, i gave them some blackberries, a couple of days ago

Heres the two girlies Molly is the yellow one, and Darc'y is the blue It was because of Harvey i bought the avairy Laurie. He is the most noisey budgie i have ever come across. I could not even make a phone call without getting embarrased, or hear what the speaker was saying. So it was either an avairy, or ...well thats not an option, i love him. I can hear him when im driving home from quite a distance, ive yet to have a complaint. My only neighbours are bird lovers too. Hes got a great personality

Well hes 4ounces, and i did a conversion online, which was about 87-89 grams. Hes indoors, and im giving him flying lessons ;D Im going to ensure he gets fit, and looses that weight. Apart from going down to eat, he just 'potatoes' on Kaeci's swing all day, except when i get him out. You got me thinking Karen, after i posted this, so i did some weight checks on my scales, and weighed him again, he still comes up about the same. Its around 3 1/2 ounces not 4. He can manage to fly half the room, but when he tries comming back he just gets puffed out, and i either catch him, or hes on the floor.
