Yes.. like this moult l'm clipping Mylo every 4-7 day especially as his flight feathers grow,he also gets used to it and doesn't scream just waits now but he knows when its time for when he see's the scissors he runs allover my back so l can't get him..he..he..bit like a child going to have a bath but once it starts its okay l clip only what feathers need, like today l trimed three last Friday only two depends,which ones grow out that l can see poking out of his secondary feather's.. Like today l had to becareful and trim a blood feather... but l know where to trim so that's okay and l would not recommend trimming blood feathers unless you have done it before with supervision  |

LOL.. getting all those treats and attention!! Those things are just so smart I reckon, especially the greys! I am pretty sure that all your efforts with Bunny before hasn't gone down the drain, I don't think he's gone back to square one. He probably just need a few more days to sulk it over... or to milk it somemore!!
I hope you're right Bih He's still sulking and hasn't really gone back to playing with his toys. Yesterday I put him on a T-stand beside my desk where I was studying, and he didn't even try to bother me Usually he'd be going crazy trying to get on my desk to chew my eraser and pencils. But last night he just sat there and watched me. What if he's sick? But he can't be sick because we just came back from the vet, and the vet said he looks really good, and his weight was good. What if he caught something at the vet? I don't like this one bit. It's 8 am now, I'm going to go wake the birds up. Hopefully today will be a better day  |

He ate his breakfast, and was very vocal while I was exercising. Now he's busy playing with one of his toys. So, so far today is going good. A definite improvement  |

Hi there Shirin...
The condition YOU've got is what I would call 'Birdie Mommy Paranoia'!! Or in the guys's term... 'Birdie Daddy Paranoia'... We all have it... I've got it big time too...Apollo seems to know how to make the condition worse everyday!!! so it's totally understandable!! LOL...
I'm sure he hasn't picked up anything from the vet, beside, we all know bird conceal being sick very well, and usually sickness don't quite show up as soon as they pick it up!! Then again, that's just what I think... The diseases gotta have incubation period right?? Right? I hope so... But anyway....
From the sound of things, Bunny seems to be doing really good today, may be he's forgotten that he's trying to milk every bit of love and attention out of ya this morning.. Just don't remind him of it!!! Take the day as it goes I guess, and just see what happens... Good to hear that he's playing a lot with one of his toys...  |

Okay, Bunny seems to have decided that he's over his grudge.. the only thing is that I have a chemistry exam in 5 hours and he won't leave me alone! He comes and starts chewing my pencils while I'm writing with them! He's such a little devil! |

Oh that little Bunny sure knows how to push your button there Shirin!!! coming out of his grudge just as you need him to 'stay away'... so to speak...
hehe, may be he's not done with the grudge yet... He's doing exactly the opposite of what you want him to do!! hehe.
Good luck with your Chem exam.  |
