Yay! Was that her first veggie?! It's so great when they FINALLY eat a veggie Woohoo! Give her a small dish of corn,see how she likes it.Never give canned vegs-they have too much sodium. Frozen vegs are good, just be sure to check ingredients because sometimes there is salt added.I usually put some frozen corn in a dish with a little water and microwave for a minute. Or you can just let it thaw before ya give it to her.You can also hang a piece of corn on the cob-Levi won't eat it that way yet tho
Way to go Chi Chi!! High five!

She had some lettuce the day before. I just put some celery in there and I'll see if she'll eat that.

So if you know that so far she likes lettuce and corn give it to her every day. The lettuce should be either romaine or green leaf-(regular iceberg lettuce has no nutritional value).
The bigger variety every day the better I think, because dif vegs have dif nutrients.
Did she try the celery? And you might want to try some fresh broccoli-I think it's one of the favorites.
Whatever she likes just keep giving it to her and try to add new ones.Even if she doesn't like something the first couple times you give it to her, just keep trying.
Oh, and grated carrots is usually a good one too

Yes, grated carrots are a bit hit. They also say the redder/oranger the veggie, the healthier it is.

He sounds like he is doing very well. When your not in the room, it is a real good idea to keep music or talk radio on. They like the company and think that if there is noise they are safe.

When I put Sweetie in the busiest part of the house, he really opened up and became much more social.

One thing I did that really helped was to put the cage right on the table when I ate breakfast and lunch. I left the door open and fed him when I ate. I put seed and veggies on the table around my plate. He would start eating when he saw me eat. Finally one day, He just hopped on the edge of the door and came out. When he was ready and felt safe he did it on his own. If you do birdy things with them, they bond quicker, because you are doing the things they recognize as a "flock" thing. Brushing your hair is "Preening". Eating together is a signal for the "flock" to eat. Playing with bells and his toys tells him they won't hurt him.

By the way, I think that shoulder thing is over rated. My guys climb all over me. They ride my shoulder and when I bend down in the kitchen to get something, they walk onto my back and then come back to my shoulder when I straighten up. They fly to my chest and play with my jewelry and play with my earrings and glasses. If you let them alone, they explore you and preen you and you become less frightening.

OMG thanx for your help guys!!!! Right now she's sitting on my shoulder CHIRPING!!!!! WITHOUT A YOUTUBE video... She was being very bad so I put her in her cage and left her alone for 2 hours. Now she's being very good.

Today I came home from school and went into my room where Chi-Chi was and then I shut the door and left. A few seconds later I heard NON STOP chirping noises. Turns out she was just hungry. lol

Hungry or happy to see you? I know Levi chirps like crazy when I get back from being gone somewhere. Especially if I don't go over and say hi as soon as come in the door LOL
Make sure you leave her plenty to eat before you go to school in the morning.They should have food at all times,never let her run out
Sounds like you and Chi are making great progress huh? Sittin on shoulder, back to chirping. And eating veggies! YAY!!!!
Way to go Chi Chi!!!

Today she is sitting on my shoulder right now. She's not being very active. I try playing with her toys everyday and nothing. She's a perch potato still who loves to sleep. She chirped to when I was singing her Whatever You Like by T.I. today. It was cute.

She has been being vedry distant with everyone lately... she's flying around like her wings aren't clipped. She's being VERY difficult. she'll chirp when she feels alone...
