Yes, the name tends to give it's pedigree away. Well, Sanjay stopped his odd behaviour as quickly as it started!, long may it last. I picked up my Parrot magazine today, I don't understand how in the UK winter, indoor birds get bitten by mozzies or gnats!, very odd. I couldn't find papaya again toda...

It's called Coprophagia, common in dogs, and giving the dog pineapple stops it, pineapple contains an enzyme, whose deficiency causes coprophagia, maybe it could work in the same way with birds?, it's worth a try, eh?

sanjays mummi

Yes, and yes, Log it with the police, log it with the landlord, and tell the ASB team at the council, it cannot be allowed to continue. I pottered in my little garden this morning, and didn't need my pain killers!, the bag of farmyard manure from wilko was a pleasant surprise, not a hint of whiff!, ...

I was talking to a lady from my local parrot society, and when I told her Sanjay detests hands, she said it is because he'd been grabbed at some stage, this makes perfect sense to me, dogs become "hand shy" for exactly the same reason.

sanjays mummi

Yes, begging Is illegal, I remember telling a guy he was stupid to give money, he said he was a Christian, to which I replied, then you would know about "tough love", you're just feeding his habit. They refuse help because it involves getting clean and getting a job. Today the nest searchi...

I am more convinced Sanjay is female after yesterday and today, I've long suspected it, why else is there no neck collar at five years?, I am not buying nesting boxes and dummy eggs, I refuse to encourage it, and if that means No cuddles or tickles as well, then so be it, I will wait it out. The wil...

I have sussed out Why my little minky keeps hovering near the walls etc, "he" is looking for a nesting site, apparently they like dark places, so the cage and UV light are definitely deterring "him", so I've put things which "he" hates in places where "he" sho...

Nice police officer, Sanjay dislikes strangers, sits on his back perch eyeing them up distrustfully. I gave the palace a thorough scrub, but when I began unscrewing his nut pot he started growling and making feints at my hands, but not actually biting or nipping, I told him off, and he flew to the c...

Neighbourhood watch. Sanjay gave me a scare today, when I came through with his fresh rations he was nowhere to be seen!, the windows were shut, and I was quite nonplussed, very quiet, even when I made the usual daft noises, then I spied the little minkey, perching right in the corner of the bay win...

He needs a veterinary check up to rule out Scaly Foot.

sanjays mummi

I alternate sweet corn cobs with bitter gourd, but he only eats the bitter gourd if the inside flesh is red, he must have x ray vision! Because one cannot tell without cutting it. Today he didn't want his usual tickle, but twittered around on the chandelier, playing with the droplets. It was lovely ...

Sanjay loves a nibble of organic Greek yogurt with honey, but only a nibble. I regularly give him fresh herbs, Dill, and Coriander, so I don't understand how herbal teas, made from an infusion could possibly contain caffeine, indeed, I drink herbal tea before bed exactly for the reason they don't co...

There wasn't much to salvage from the banana leaf toy, the woven ball and the bell survived, but not much else. Sanjay spent more time out, but didn't chase shadows, And he didn't splat until he was back in his cage!

sanjays mummi

The key to communication with all pets, is body language, we had dogs who would signal for us to go indoors from the garden, if the phone was ringing, and we couldn't hear it. Sanjay hovered again today, I realised it was his shadow which was triggering it, so I closed the curtains a bit, and he wen...

sanjays mummi

It's not the plain compost, it's the bottom heat. More sprouting today. Sanjay kept hovering in front of the glass panel above my sitting room door, we put fablon "frosted glass" sticky back covering on it, so he can't see through, and there's very little reflection, so I don't know What t...

She watches far too many vampire movies, Apparently men should exercise before eating and women after eating to lose weight. If it didn't hurt so much I would walk more. It was another beautiful spring day again. I sowed seeds on Tuesday, and they're up already, in my propagator!.

sanjays mummi

Please Don't have him clipped!, I bet he Loved the freedom of flying around. Place the small cage in front of the large one with the large cage door open, then drop a sheet so your bird can only fly forward, open the small cage door, and he/she should flit straight in, it worked for Sanjay, when we ...

sanjays mummi

Ah yes, the days of his nursery cage, when I could carry him from room to room, and had a slide out base and roof which opened. But he was like Topsy, he growed and growed!. It was a lovely day today, and lovely evening, long may it last!

sanjays mummi

With Sanjay it's usually "did you bring me something?"

sanjays mummi

Maybe she is shy, Sanjay likes to show off. Well, you cannot fight nature, lamp or no lamp, it hasn't encouraged Sanjay to do anything extra, it's good to know he is getting vitamin D, and other benefits from the lamp, my husband said he thought Sanjays colours seemed to improve. I thank my lucky st...

You could find out on the internet by googling, I don't know, but the reason I am replying is this, are Any branches safe? From the point of view, wild birds use them, and wild birds may introduce infection. Just a thought.

The traffic light came from Wilko, I did describe it to you, a log of wood, three holes stuffed with seeds and veg, Red, beetroot, peppers etc, Orange, carrot etc, Green, with green veg, he hasn't emptied stop and go yet, but he's working on it!. I dug out the electric propagator today, and sowed Ag...

sanjays mummi

I don't need to, I know what Sanjays foods taste like, well, most of them. I like pink guavas, but the white ones are too full of seeds for me. What a bitterly cold day today, in the wind, and thick frost first thing, just when I thought we had got away with it!. But I found an Aquascutum cashmere c...

sanjays mummi

You both need daylight, so I hope it won't make the room too dark.

sanjays mummi

I have bamboo blinds, and Sanjay has never bothered about the windows, so yes, you need some sort of curtain or blind as a deterrent, you cannot keep him caged all the time, that would be cruel. When we had a house with patio doors, wild birds would fly into them, and one or two died from injury, so...

sanjays mummi

I shan't miss it, my newsagent keeps it for me. IRN's which have colonised in the UK were either aviary or cage pets once, and Sanjay would certainly give wild birds what for!. As for that disease, pet birds are Less likely to succumb whilst they live indoors. I tried Sanjay on dried mealworms once,...

sanjays mummi

The only article I read on bird tricks was about discoloured beaks. We tried clicker training with the dogs, didn't work. so I never tried with Sanjay. No minimum order with Wilko, I put the traffic light in today, he has scoffed the amber light already! But, when all three compartments are empty, I...

sanjays mummi

I am always amazed by their resilience, and how quickly they bounce back, and forgive minor transgressions like accidental contact. Sanjay is much more tolerant nowadays, allowing my hand to be in closer proximity.

sanjays mummi

The delivery came, give wilko their due, they send e mails and let you know, I am very impressed, the Banana leaf toy, and the Traffic Light are brilliant, the traffic light stuffed with veg and seed, in a wooden chewable log. The driver (they use Nightfreight) was shattered, and glad this was his l...

sanjays mummi

We waited in again today, with Sanjay rubbernecking and getting excited over every person and vehicle, but no delivery, probably tomorrow. I hate to tell you, but there had been some naughty behaviour in the cherry tree's, by wild birds, so its definitely that time of year. I wonder.if Billie was br...

The last time my medication damaged my liver, my doctor took me off it immediately, and warned me that if the symptoms ever showed themselves again, to stop immediately!, and I have. I like Netflix, the TV films are not to my taste, as I don't like westerns, etc. I like YouTube too, I watch some of ...

sanjays mummi

When Sanjay started doing this, it was because he needed a bigger cage.

sanjays mummi

Well, I've thrown my medication in the bin, all the signs of liver damage, and this happened to me before with prescription meds, tomorrow I'm buying milk thistle to repair the damage. Not only that, but I've gained a stone because of it. Sanjay likes a good toon, especially "Hooked on Classics...

I feed them raw, but Sanjay isn't keen on Okra.

I don't know, but going to the original list, All garlic is a no no!, and parsley is toxic too.

I believe they can copy body language. The head back "love me" doesn't start until later. I was told by Sanjays breeder he is definitely a DNA sexed male, there was even a breast feather missing, But "he" is five now, no collar and I get the head back "kiss me" posture....

sanjays mummi

Yes, Wilko deliver, you have a choice when you order, collect from store or delivery for £4. Which takes approx 4 working days. The windows 10 is already installed on my Asus tablet. You are the same height as my late husband, but he never weighed more than 11 and a half stone, he was built like a g...

What a cheek! Expecting you to pay for something you dont use, I would have refused too. My daughter is with eon, she intends switching back to Scottish, eon are terrible, when her meter malfunctioned, they mafe her wait three days with no heating or hot water, and she has two young children. With a...

I have a wet room with electric shower and automatic fan, a shower costs 25p, I am with Scottish Power, I have prepayment meters for gas and electricity. I don't want a water meter, my water costs approx £12 a week, I have a book and I pay over the phone weekly, then I get about 4 months when I don'...

I have a washer dryer, when you add up all the 60p's you have spent over the years....., there is a rotary dryer in the garden, unused, they probably dry their stuff on the radiators, and have mould and mildew as a result. Anything is possible with that little minky of yours!, why tunnel when you ca...

There is a lovely smelling meadow hay you can buy, my daughter bought it for pet rabbits, they ate most of it!. We didn't have as much excitement as you and Billie, today, the sunshine was beautiful but the wind was exceedingly chillikins!. One of my neighbours gave a home to a retired greyhound las...

We used to give our dogs elderberry extract when they had "winter" nose, (lack of pigment), I believe birds can have fresh elderberries. But, look it up first. No, Peter, t'was not I who told you that, but that's not to say it doesn't happen. Keep presenting your little one with a variety ...

I went into the 99p shop today, and found they had jelly pots!, these are little cone shaped ones for children, I checked the ingredients, all ok except a small amount of sugar, but 20 to a bag, so I bought some, Sanjay loves them!. I just clipped one to the cage bars. Our Asian supermarket was clos...

I know what you mean, I didn't have to train Sanjay to ask for kisses and tickles. My little garden is abloom with miniature Irises, cyclamen, daffs, and hellebores, the snowdrops are Just peeping through, another garden on the road is full of purple crocuses, but mine aren't up yet, mine are dark p...

Any vet, avian or not, should be able to find out if they don't know. Could this be lack of pigmentation?, as AJ says, it might be a regeneration thing, perhaps she damaged the surface at some point.
