Wasa will not have a full pellet diet, I only posted to let people know just to really take note of what their parrots are eating. Make sure they are getting a full range of seed and pellets along of course with their fruits and veges which Wasa never goes without. I guess what I really wanted to sa...

Wasa loves most fruits and veg. Apple and Grapes are his all time fave, oh and frozen passionfruit for those hot summer days, kiwi fruit because of the seeds in it. Snow Peas are his fave veg though and he goes through and eats the peas out before eating the pod... So gorgeous. And then whenever we ...

Wasa is only in his cage when we go to work. Other than that he is out with us, but usually just does his own thing, like walking on the floor or swinging off the curtains - or pulling the bloody keys off my lap top - general destructive behaviour. He will come over to us when he wants a smooch or w...

Are there any safe flowers...
Morning all, I've started keeping a few flower arrangements around the place and Wasa can't keep away from them, which leads me to, is there any plant or flower I should take particular care to keep away from him.
Thanks

Wasas confused
My little darling bird Wasa seems to be confused if he/ she is a boy or a girl.
Wasa so sweetly clucks like a girl and has all female kind of behaviour when getting smooches, but has recently started doing the male trance dance and trying to feed my boyfriend and I.
HOW BLOODY CONFUSING!!!!!!

I have always had a bit of a feeling that Wasa is a little boy due to the shaddow around his little neck. I am pretty sure it is getting darker. HOWEVER when he lets me rub his neck he puts his neck up and wings out and takes on the female mating kind of stance. then lets me do whatever I want, I ca...

When Wasa cleans himself he seems to lose alot of little white downy feathers... is this normal?
I mean one or two every now and then but just now he has lost like 4 or 5 of these little white feathers.
