Sir didymus and Isis

Post by Bella »

Here is Isis :D
Image
And Sir didymus also known as didy (his original name was Harthor :? which i didnt really like)
Image
he is very camera shy and scared but he has loads of bald patches which i think is due to a molt so i will be keeping an eye on that and he also has a bald patch by his eye where Isis has over preened him he has a short tail where he has trapped it and it looks all tatty

For anyone who wants to know the history of these two cuties

They were put together at a pet shop where they bonded then sold to their owners who put them in the study in a cage that i would say was too small for a pair.
They were let out just once a week and left to fly around in the study. They were sent to their emergency carer with lots of food in a cat litter tub which contains some small bugs :shock:
They have been with me since thursday and they are just settling down they are so scared even if someone is in the room with them they start to shake. They are getting calmer and calmer each time i go in the room and dont always dart to the back of the cage now :D

OOOOOHHHH.. I see now..Yes, on my pc he is like a powder baby blue. I never knew they had gray ones. I actually never knew ringnecks existed until about 10 days ago..lolol The gray ones are just as beautiful. I still get a kick out of seeing the two species hanging out.

This is wonderful to see my Baby cocateil and my baby ringneck hang out together on a playstand for hours and I didn't know if it would be a good Idea to put them in a cage together. but after seeing these two I might just see if they can share a large space together happily.

Well didymus is full of pin feathers all over his face and some feathers are fully there :D im so happy but he doesnt like isis in his cage anymore even tho they have been living together for years in the same cage :shock: they had to go together while we moved house and he was horrible to her :? Ill try to get some more photos of his beautiful new feathers soon once i can get close enough to him for some decent ones :D

Your Isis looks just like our keily. Amazing to hear about a cockatiel preening an IRN .. My cockatiel needs to run like the wind if the ringnecks get too close , they hate her ! but she loves them. :( poor keily

They are both beautiful .. thanks for sharing

I just noticed that I spelt keily wrong on my avatar sigh!

Billy is starting to like her too :D he tried to grab the feathers on her head which freaked her out a little but didy and billy really dont get along didy HATES billy but likes to try and steal his cage lol
Ive had to seperate didy and isis because she plucked nearly half his face the other week :( and now he doesnt even want her in the same cage :? They confuse me :roll:
