Rosie in her outside cage

[Featheredsamurai]

After lots of cleaning and sanitizing her cage was finally ready!

I brought her out in a carrier, and I held her against my chest with her wings pinned to her sides bringing her back in. I really need to find a safer way to bring her back inside...

I still have to buy new perches, so I just brought her rope perch out, and I had cut down a eucalyptus branch a week earlier. It needs casters, it has some but one was chewed up by the cockatoo who used to live in it.

Rosie is enjoying the outdoors. The eucalyptus tree's make a great dappled light/shadow that works great. Rosie gets her sun but isn't in full sun.

Looking up at the trees

Waving and being cute

When I brought her back in I set her down on a kitchen chair, then went back out to get her rope perch and toys, and water dish(the cages bowls were in the dishwasher running on sanitize for the second time)

Either she was startled, or just wanted to be with me, and she started flying. I ran to the screen door and pressed my hand to it so she wouldn't hit a window trying to get to me. The only time she would hit a window is if I were outside, that's only happened once. The screen worked great, she was able to grab it and I carefully opened the door a foot and slipped inside.

wow she's so pretty! what a great cage! I love the waving photo! too bad the cage doesn't have wheels so you could put it closer to your screen door to at least make the trip to it faster.

Thankyou!
Yeah, casters would be really nice. I want to be able to put he cage right up against he door for safety when taking her out. I would also like to move it around the yard. Right now it's only 5 feet from the back door, so pretty close. I don't want to risk her being able to fly off so I'm being really careful. Next time I take her back and forth I'm going to think of a more secure way. The carrier worked great for bringing her out, I out it on the bottom of Jeff cage and opened the door so she could walk out. But putting her back in could potentially startle her.

I forget to add, the cage has bowls. They were just in he dish washer at the tome(2nd sanitation cycle lol)

Love your pics. I have thought of getting a cage for on my porch (i use his travel cage out there occasionally) but i also thought of the logistics of moving him to another cage safely. I keep saying i want to build a sun room on my house to enjoy the sun and "outdoors" year round.

Rosie looks GORGEOUSO in her outdoor cage. I LOVE how her feathers glow when the sunlight hits her. And how perfect to have dappled shade in the area!

Ashley, you should be able to find coaster quite cheaply at Lowe's or Home Depot, or Sears hardware, or Ace hardware, or any other hardware store. Pfft...Walmart probably sells them, too.

She looks so beautiful and happy.
The pic of her hanging off the screen door is hilarious!!!

Great pictures! And I think Rosie really loves you! Even if she was startled, and even if she didn't like you at first, you are definitely hers now!

Is it because her color? She's started molting and I'm so excited for her to start loosing her pink feathers. So far she's only been loosing gray. I'm actually hoping they come in lighter! Lol, she is doing so amazing. If hey come in the same that means she's a true dark morph, if they come in light it will make her transformation from when I got her even more amazing.

How exciting that you got the wire! I can't wait to see what you eventually build

I keep seeing a galah on Kijiji, and it makes me think of Rosie... I would be concerned that the bird might have some of the same health issues that Rosie has/had. I hope he doesn't, and I hope that he will (if he hasn't already) be reunited with his owner.

Before Juliet passed away Romeo's life partner, she as a dark galah and I love the color the deep rose color she had and Rosie has that color so I guess it reminds me of her, but yes you can look at Romeo in my albumns and see he is a much lighter shade of pink.

I can't wait hopefully within the next month or two

Looking good Great idea with the outside cage.
I think you will find she really is a morph of some kind. She is sooo much darker than any galah I have ever seen here.
