My blue bundgie parakeet named Blue Boy is dieing today....and i am very sad..... Sunshine keeps trying to cuddle up to him and peck at him and get a response .....and Blue Boy has gone to the bottom of the cage now, so it is only a matter of minutes or hours now.... Poor baby blue....I am so sorry.... Will have to get Sunshine another friend. he is a such a live wire and will be too sad alone. free bird...fly free and be happy....
So sorry to hear this ... You'll have to get the one left a friend. May Blue meet you again on the Rainbow Bridge
idk really...He was adopted to keep another bird here who lost their friend here company, and he was already a little older, but they did not know how old he was. He has lived here at least 5 years and has been a wonderful bird. I took him out of the cage...cupped him and kissed him and stroked his head all very gently and put him back in the cage and he is now back on the perch....for now. These little birds all have their own personalities, too...and he was always very shy and sweet.......
hugs and kisses go out to you moonglow, your love for those animals are felt through your words. im sure your bird had a very happy life under your care.
Thank you...he is still hanging on...and here he is...very pretty. i called a bunch of places looking to see who sells these birds without the banded legs....I hate my birds being banded.....as I had one parakeet once who all they did was try to get it off their leg....so I found a place that does sell them unbanded....and may go there tonight and buy one and put them in another cage....so Sunshine will not have to be alone too long...will also have to clean this cage thoroughly first.....taking it apart and cleaning all sections with hot water and scrubbing....before Sunshine and new bird transition back into this cage.... i have seen this too many times....how they die...they do make periodic come backs...like Blue Boy is doing now....but it usually only a matter of a day or two...
Blue Boy has been doing fine ever since I took him out and kissed him....LOL not to make a joke here....but I put broccoli crowns in the cage for the birds to eat and they are both eating...If anything can help Blue Boy, broccoli can. I have decided not to get another bird yet....too sad to do it that way...must give Blue Boy all I have got for now.....
When Erin was about 2 years old she got sick... really sick. No food, no water, she wasn't even trying. She was getting weaker by the hour, I thought for sure she was done for. I stayed up with her all night. About 9 the next morning she went and looked at her water for a bit, then got a drink and snapped out of it, whatever it was. That was 5 years ago or so, never been sick again. Hope Blue does the same thing.
Awwwwwhhhhh...thank you, bird lovers.....yes, birds are so amazing.....and beautiful and wonderful and I learn alot from watching them.... yes, Blue is still here....and has his head in his side sleeping right now..... Tyronswood, hopefully, it will be a happy story like Erin's for him...and he just had a bad day like Ace said....I hope... I will keep you updated..... There used tto be the bird lady here who I bought Sunshine and Blue from and she knew so much about birds, especially little parakeets.....but she and her husband closed and left last year leaving me without them good people.... I miss them and their little pet shop. they were the best...so hands on.
blue is dieing right now in my left hand as i type this. i havebeenholding him and talking to him for the last hour and gently stroking him.....his eyes are closed and he is just on his side. i tried to put him in a cushioned box a few minutes ago, but he made the faintest little chirps until i took him out and put again and into my hand, i will b sitting here holding him until he is gone, i guess....
Yeah...I have him in the folds of my shirt now, so he is close to my chest with my heart....... Sunshine is making all kinds of noise louder than ever from the other room screaming for his friend. that is hard to hear, as well.... Blue is such a darling sweet bird even now... poorlittle thing. I am so sorry......
