Home Sweet Home

As reported a little while back Dino the budgie, took off on a little adventure and was missing for an hour or so. It may have been a gust of wind, (although I have to say it has never affected me enough to make me want to go AWOL for a while), or he just might need some need toys and therefore some new stimulation.

I had been putting off building him a house in his room for some time, somewhere were he can go and chill.

Dino's new house

I begged a piece of drainage pipe and cut the entrance hole and  fitted the the necessary attachments so that he could climb in and out.
I left his new "des res"around the house for a while for him to see and get used to and he was inquisitive from the start. He soon made it his own by enlarging the hole, pecking here and there and once I had given him a few sheets of paper to shred and make it more comfortable, he moved in and seems as pleased as punch, in fact I think its fair to say that he loves it.
He has always enjoyed playing with golf balls in the past and so I included 3 in his house for him to play with.
His instincts are obviously kicking in as he is now sitting on the golf balls and must be thinking that that are eggs and is  trying to start a new family, I am looking forward to a few baby Titleist's in a couple of weeks time, could be a nice little earner.
