Charlie & Patches are really funny together. They are both males and are best pals together. They have their own little 'club house" under Patches's cage. They bring millet treats to snack on and work on "projects". They don't like it when any of the other birds venture near their "man cave". It's their private place where they do "projects" such as tearing up paper.
You would think that two males would fight with each other but these two do not. I think because Charlie doesn't challenge Patches. He looks for his guidance.Patches has been trying to teach Charlie to fly. He will squawk and panic if Charlie is out of his sights. Fresh Baby (female cockatiel) will investigate what these two are doing and will get chased away. I guess it is a "no girls allowed" club.
I think it is cute how these two hang out together
As you can see he is ready to cause trouble by entering the man cave or he will squawk loudly causing all the birds to panic and fly around.
Sal is our "newest" cockatiel. He shows a little interested in this man cave business. Sometimes both Charlie and Patches will enter Sal's cage to eat his food, play with his toys and just hang out with him.
Sal is a little nervous because he has never had another bird in his cage before but he doesn't seem to really mind too much.He will watch Charlie and Patches when they are in their man cave.
I think pretty soon Sal will be the newest member of their" little club."
Only time will tell!
I think Charlie and Patches have coloring that complements each other. Where one's grey the other is white, and vice versa. Maybe they like it like that.
ReplyDeleteI love your stories about their interactions. As for the snow and winter, I can hardly wait for Spring, too!!!
