Right now Salty is.....

[wrench13]

1-22-25 Apparently Salty has hurt his beak or strained the muscles of his beak, again. He seems to do this occasionally, once or twice a year. How we know this - he VERY slowly and gingerly takes his treat of a piece of pine nut and tonite has hardly touched his dinner of chop. Possibly sliced his tounge on that razor sharp beak! Its hard to see, with his black tounge. Usually he is better the next day or two, so fingers crossed.

New batch of chop is being accepted well. Note to self, lower the pasta proportion back to 1/2 lb for the batch. THe Brussel sprouts seem to be better run thru the processer rather then just chopped up.

We had company over on Sunday, Salty was so cute, singing his hits and talking a bit. The woman, who is not a bird fan, was actually quite taken with him, the little ham. "Adorable" was the word used - coming from a dedicated cat person, I'll take it!

The bicycle - back to square one, again. Still too hard for him to actually pedal. I saw one in a video the other night, with a small 'too doing it, seemed to pedal really easy, I wish I knew who made it. Or how it was constructed. I really don't want to re-engineer the one i have with things like ball bearings and stuff, too overly complicated. Salty loves the trick though and eagerly jumps on board for a go. We'll see.

Aww, hope you feel better soon, Salty . And excellent work on converting a cat lady to the bird side!
