Spinach arrived Friday. He was not a happy camper. He definitely don't like to stay in his little cage and he missed his mommy.He was really lunging to me and even he tolerated Charley still he shoes that he is not happy. We didn't dare to take him out of cage.We prepared one of the big cages for him but wait Jaime to transfer his new cage. Jamie was much brave than us of course and she fearlessly scratched his head and connect with him in a minute. Than Charley and her took him to wing cut,I even didn't dare to watch. After the process he placed his new cage that he obviously liked it.
It seems that he ate a lot of seed and pine nuts.But obviously he enjoy vegetables. At the mornings he is extremely grumpy.Saturday morning we try to reach him but he was not cooperating. When I try to put a piece of mint branch to his cage he lung and tear the leaves like a copper.
Honestly his aggressive behaviour really scares me.
He was doing better with Charley. Saturday evening he opened the cage door and Spinach decide to come out and he climbed from his hand to his shoulder and insist to stay on his shoulder couple hours.At 8pm when I went to put another birds to bed he fly away from Charley and walk true to his cage:) He realized that it is time to bed.
This morning all birds carried to garden.Al and Baker know the drill.And they love to go outside. I filled that bath for them but didn't take bath today because it was not so hot.
Al begin to have a special affection with me. He is incredibly intelligent and full with surprises. And Baker definitely get jealous when we flirting with Al. He pushes him back and start fighting.
Spinach first time today stop crying. He has that sound like hiccup.And first time today out side stop doing it. And tonight he climb Charlies shoulder again for his one hour pruning.

Tomorrow will be tough Charley is leaving in the morning and he and me need to handle each other..
We will see.!!!

We are at the 4th week and we had a lot of way. Baker and Al today spend few hours out of cage.Still they don't come when we try to do them "Step Up" but eating from our hand and when we came close to their cage come to us. Al is crazy about juicy fruits.Orange, cherry and especially Black berry are his favorite.
Baker is more veggie guy.He likes his broccoli.
They are getting really loud between 7 and 8.30pm. Especially when we try to cover the cage Baker loves to say Hi..Couple days ago one of the talking , "Hi guys"(I guess we always say that when we step in the room.) and "Hello Baker" was so obvious.I believe that was Al and he talks a really soft voice.
We are getting another bird probably next week. This one will be conure but tamed. I even don't want to think how we will handle with quarantine.
