The four parrots have their own foibles where showers are concerned. Chico: “Foibles? What’s that?” Kobe: “I think it’s something to do with vegetables.” JoeJoe: “Don’t be silly – we don’t shower with vegetables!” Kobe: “Bobbie does…” Bobbie: “No, I don’t! This is my water bowl!” Author: A foible is […]
In the wild, parrots bathe in the rain, dripping leaves, pools or streams, so we should try to replicate that in captivity. Bathing is important for skin and feather condition.

The Deck Monster Saga, plus exclusive interviews… It’s been cold. It’s been raining. It has even been hailing. But these two intrepid explorers are determined to uncloak the mystery that is the Deck Monster. In the words of the Beatles, “They seek him here…” “They seek him there…” Nobody knows […]
It was a beautiful day, so we decided to sit outside on the lawn. Kobe refused to join us, so it was just the three Amazons. Chico: “Apparently we’re not meant to eat the daisies.” Bobbie: “Why not?” Chico: “I don’t know – I think it’s because fairies use them […]
“Smells good!” “Tastes good, too!” “Better keep an eye out for you know who!” “Just sampling these up here…” “Love the taste of apple blossom in the morning!” Chomp, chomp, chomp… “What? I didn’t make that mess – it was a big seagull who flew past and everything suddenly fell […]
