Thanks dunnitall....appreciated :-)
They're a joy....quiet at the moment as completely knackered flying and playing about, and resting with their heads tucked in their wings, and I have built them a homemade gym they adore with ladders, coconut shells, perches, dangly ropes and bells and assorted toys....starting to respond to our calls and gestures....had a few Budgies before.... the longest one, Princess, living to the ripe old age of 14, before developing a lump near her neck....took her to the vets, who said almost certainly a cancerous tumour and if they operated would probably die under anaesthetic or shock. She lived for a further few months, hopefully without pain, as we had her medication and she died whilst we were away on holidays abroad, being looked after by friends.
So gutting...losing a pet.
