Smidgen's Parrotlet Perch
Hi! My name is Smidgen, and I'm a green rump parrotlet hen.
I hatched around July 25, 1998.
I have a big cage with lots of toys for me to play with while mom is busy or at work.
I used to believe that the only food which existed was seed. Unfortunately, my mom seemed to be unaware of this. She kept trying to STARVE me, by taking away my seeds for most of the day and giving me these icky pellets, and funny looking stuff she calls fruits, veggies, and birdie bread. She claimed it's becuase she loves me, and wants me to be healthy and live for a long time. At any rate, I resisted for a long time, but a busy little birdy gets HUNGRY, so eventually I decided those icky pellets were better than nothing.
My Favorite things to do:
Untie my Birdy Buddy and chew on the ties.
Have mom pet my head and chin.
Climb around my cage (always clockwise).
Scold mom for not giving me seed instead of this pellet crap.
Do somersaults around my cement perch to impress mom into giving me a nutriberry.
Chatter while merrily attacking my spider toy.
Give an itty bitty beak of death to anyone who tries to pick me up when I'm not in the mood.
Chew on the moles on mom's neck.
Fly across the room (they forgot to tell me my wings are clipped ;-)
Cuddle on mom's chest.
My Favorite Foods:
Sugar cookies (mom only lets me have a teeny bit)
Seed, Seed, Seed, Seed, Seed and Seed.
If I can't get that, I'll settle for nutriberries, birdie bread, cheerios, or even those icky pellets.
Look at the Parrotlet Links listed at Magda's Bird Links.
