Update

All is going very well astrix is growing up he is just begining his first moult and he and toby seem to be mates they dont snuggle or anything but they follow each other around and call to each other if seperated ( plus have a few little tiffs) Asterix has turned out to be quite a mischovous little fellow and seems to have a knack for pulling things down and chewing my blinds!!!! Toby of course supervises all from a safe distance  LOL

"Yeah go on astrix you push it off I'll keep watch"

just a cool shot of toby flying

Toby's 2nd favorite activity FOOD is number 1

Tiko

Our new baby Green cheek arrived on the 21-9-2005 at just over 9 weeks old. Everyone who has met his so far just adores him.We have only had him for a week but he has won his way into all our hearts forever. So far he is an absolute snuggle bug who loves nothing more than a scritch and to fall asleep in my hair ir curled up in my tshirt.............he also likes showers with mummy and playing ball.......I hope to add more as he grows up...... and the big meeting between toby and asterix.

Tikos hero shot

"Oh look at me arent I a cute baby"

Tiko was puching this toy of my daughters around.......he tryed to jump on the man and it fell over and now he doesnt like it...lol

Meeting

Well they have all met now that tiko has the all clear....I had them in the same room for a few days with seperate time out....and they were very happy and curious about each other.....when they were all out for the first time together all they did was preen them selves for about 1/2 an hour then they checked each other out had a few little pecks at each other and that was it they did there own thing....so it is all going well....tiko keeps grabing onto astrixs tail as he goes past and kind of gets towed alot while astrix scwarks......Toby is just happy to have someone to explore with......

"Oui what have you found in mummys bag tiko"

"come in and see toby its great in here"

"let me sit up the top astrix its my turn"

"what mum..... she bit me first"

Tiko LOVES playing toys!!!!

Lele

Lele is a male princess parrot he is handraised and very lovely, I have always loved princess parrots since i was a little girl.

I have a birds or Australia book and used to spend hours looking at the pictures of the princess parrot so i am so excited to be sharing my home with one.

Lele has a damaged wing somthing had happened to him before i got him so it looks like he will never be able to fly but he is very cheery and very very active,

he is always swinging upside down and rolling around on the floor, he is a very good imitater and can copy the sounds of all of my birds.

"who's a pretty boy then"

Lele has been pigging out on cornits stuck to his beak

The damaged wing

His tail is growing so long I have to take pictures sideways to get it in

a princess parrots tail will grow to approx 30cm

Stay tuned for more pics
