So as you know, I have been having a biting war with Sukei. I was doing the usual nightly routine (Sukei on perch, me cleaning cage) and I brought the perch over to the cage, and he stands on the door and waits for me to get the cage cover from the other room. He proceeds to get off the door and climbs in the cage, (usual). I go in the other room to put up the vacume, (usual) I cover the cage as normal leaving the round hole open in the front, say good night and sit down start watching TV, and Sukei starts with his usual "Gooood Night Daddy" "Sukei loves Daddy" And my reply is usual, "Then why do you keep biting me?" LOL About ten min later, I look up and see him with his head bowed and smashed up against the bars. (UNusual) Walked up to the cage, and Im thinking, because this bird is smart......he is baiting me in for a try through the bars LOL. I chance it, started petting the top of his head with one finger, and he just sits there like that letting me pet the top of his head through the bars LOL for like 2 or 3 min. He backs up and says "Gooood Night Daddy" "Sukei loves Daddy" You never know what these birds are going to do or when, still amazes me. I think we will leave it at that for a while, all my flesh has healed

Huey has been sitting around watching and listening to my wife and then me cough, cough, cough and....cough some more. He has also seen us go for the medicine bottles which we have been keeping in a built-in bookcase. No birdy has ever taken an interest in getting up in the bookcase until now. Huey now sits around and coughs and coughs and has found his way into the bookcase and zero'd in on the pill bottles. Apparently we're supposed to believe he is sick now too and needs meds 🤪 So the pill bottles except one have been removed. Now Huey attempts to take his meds and hopefully we'll get him through this 'sickenss'. Poor Huey ::eyerolls:: 20200402_072919.mp4

Sukei coughs and does the "Im sick" routine, but never has gone after a pill bottle. LOL, and from the looks of it he wants in that bottle very badly. LOL, too funny.

Makes your heart heal a little too no doubt! Hope Sukei is turning a corner

Too funny about Huey. NOT funny you guys are sick -- hope you get better soon! And hope Huey can forget his coughing routine. Of course, the more you wish a parrot would stop a routine, the more they do it! lol

Love this! Get well soon!
