livingart Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I also agree with the queries about the ID, you name it as F. silvestris catus - aren't these black and white? positive ID of silvestris catus can be confirmed by the teeth having remnants of yellow feathers in them, they also emit bubbles that when they reach the surface and pop the words "suffering soccatash" can be heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hi Suds!!! 8) Personally, I don't eat anything except bird seed and millet sprays - unless it is on somebody else's plate. If it belongs to someone else, I'll eat it! Particularly fond of biscuits and muesli bars as I like crunchy stuff. Corn and peas are fun. I can fling them quite a distance! :bounce: Caryl gets upset when I pinch the choc chips off her pudding :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 looking at the cere that is a possibility it is hard to pick on pieds with a lot of white around head area as some males in that colour line never develop a blue cere when young it had a pink cere which is an indication of a male and a more outgoing personality than the rest females talk as well just not as much as males, time will tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I thought Suds looked like a girl too but since Bud's cere, which used to be very blue, is now dark brown, who knows? :-? I am worried he might have cancer, like someone suggested Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livingart Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 that is a possibility Caryl it may also be hormonal or the fact that there are no ladies around as well and he doesn't want to breed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 I prefer to think it is just hormones. He went through that stage where he was chewing through everything but that has stopped. He still nibbles on the edge of books on the table or chair but only as a "oh look, wonder what this tastes like" and takes a few bites, not the frenzy he was in a few weeks ago where nothing was safe. He is also not feeding inanimate objects or acting like he wants to mate with anything. When the kids were here over Christmas they had their female budgie with them and let her out to play with him but they ignored each other. When they were younger they chased each other all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
