Thread: Am having a good time and so is Skyler

    Default Am having a good time and so is Skyler

    She has really taken to Punkin. But strangely Punkin seems to be the leader even at 10 wks.

    Yesterday was a red letter day. Punkin was on me while we were doing a puzzle and Skyler left her cage to join us at the table.
    Punkin especially loved picking up the pieces. She stills makes that whining baby noise whenever she sees me but she's getting better.

    Sounds like Skyler is learning trust from Punkin and this is a big deal!!!!! Skyler sees that Punkin is not afraid so Skyler is starting to join in what appears to be fun. Hopefully, Punkin will stop at just picking up puzzle pieces rather than trying to reshape them........ Those pictures are absolutely adorable! Mutation-wise, Punkin is a Medium Green Peachface (carries 1 dark factor). Skyler is an Aqua Peachface (no dark factor).

    In older US nomenclature, yes. However, most breeders switched to a newer nomenclature where Dutch Blue is Aqua. Whiteface Blue is Turquoise and Seagreen is AquaTurquoise. I usually mention both names but forgot to do so this time. Regardless of mutation name, Skyler is just gorgeous!!!

    Cuties! Are you going to let their flight feathers grow out?

    HI

    No I always clip the flight feathers but they still can fly across a room.

    You play it safe just like I do. I want mine to be able to fly but not risk injury.
