More new tail feathers, her wings always were a bit raggy so not expecting much. Tilley has chirped up loads since the arrival of the new budgies. I blame my hormones for the panic about French moult! Just made another batch of homemade egg food and they are all treating it as if it was poisoned!!! I have high hopes for Harry though, he's a bit clumsy and tends to fall or be pushed into things, so I'm hoping he'll try some.

tee hee, if he falls in he will surely eat some when he preens himself #cheesy#
We all panic about our birds, it's called love, and that's what their all about, isn't it? #cheesy#

Happiness!, Tilley has a tail again , no sign of any primary feathers but then they always were a bit few and far between. Massive success with the fruit & veggies Tilley eats Broccolli, carrot and apple and orange. Is it safe to give her cucumber, I gave her some last year and she loved it, but to be honest in Tilleys opinion if it's in her cage its fair game, if it doesn't move fast it gets eaten.

Sounds like mites to me. Give them plenty of fresh vegetables & fruit and treat them once a week for a month for mites - hopefully if that's all it is they should come good.
