AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Make him stop yelling!

Gabe is at the stage of pellet conversion where he's constantly bitching that he doesn't have any food. He *DOES*, it's just pellets. And he's eating them when I'm not looking, I only give him a couple spoons of seeds a day, and that's not enough to keep him at the weight he's got, so I *know* he's sneaking pellets when I'm not there, but his yelling's driving me nuts! It's not loud, just irritating and constant. I keep having to leave the room he's in b/c it's driving me insane. :(

Science! Science! Sci-Science!

How many different "science" -s are there in She Blinded Me With Science?

The Good, the Bad, and the Birdie

The Bad
Gabe continues to complain about the lack of seeds in his dish. I keep consoling myself that it can't be more than two weeks from here.

The Good
Gabe ate seeds from my hand! Up till now he's only ever eaten things from his food dish, but I figured that if he's so desperate for seeds, I've gotta be able to get something good out of it!

( The Birdie )

It's amazingly hard to take a steady picture one-handed, and he was kinda washed out with the flash. Oh well, it's still photographic proof that he finally ate something from my hand. He had a much easier time eating from the palm of my hand than finger tips - he seemed to get confused with which were my fingers and which the seeds, so he'd just nibble at all and eat none. :-P

Cockatiel colors

In response to a comment by l0stmyrel1g10n on my last post, I've now written up a bit more about cockatiel colors. And it's still not everything under the sun...
