Rest in Peace Rio
I know I've seen this mentioned before, but today it was extra noticable. Today in River's fruit/veggie bowl he had bird street bistro, fresh brocolli, and strawberries. Now he smells like strawberries! He seems to be puzzled why his mom is a weirdo, but I can't stop sniffing him! LOL He smells so good!
 
LOL That's cute! Audrey always smell's certain ways after certain foods lol!
 
Puck always smells like whatever he's been eating or chewing on. I learned to NEVER FEED HIM CHILI OR HE WILL STINK THE REST OF THE DAY.

He also has his own little odor too. It's sort of pungent.

I like to hold him on his back and take a big whiff of his belly. lol.

"Non bird people" would probably think we're all plain crazy sitting around sniffing our birds because they smell nice! lol.
 
Haha! I loooove Merlins normal smell, it's really soothing. Like a mother who knows her newborn baby's smell... that's what I think Merlin is like to me. I'm always sneaking in a sniff when he's tired or something ^^

He's just had apple and there's a tinge of fruityness to his Merlin smell.

I love my birdy. :eek:
 
strawberry smell is not too bad but one of those bistros has garlic in it. I do not like my bird smelling like this so I do not feed it anymore. Ughhhhh she really had stinky breath.
 
Now that Kazi has learned to enjoy showers (or at least accept them) I sniff him all the time. He smells a bit like a curry! Unless he's been eating brussels sprouts, then he smells like raw broccoli.

Yuck! Garlic smell wouldn't be nice! After I read this, I ran out and read through the ingredients on my bird street bistro. Fortunately, the flavor I picked doesn't have any garlic in it. whew!
