Re: Is this "normal" Sad Parakeet
Posted by jill on 10/08/05

it is the best thing for him...we've all known someone who lost
a bird to the outdoors. some are lucky enough to be
found....others are not.. with plenty of attention and a few
treats he will return to normal...i must keep my birds clipped
regularly due to the location they are at in my home and the
fact that the only thing that keeps them in the avairy is thier
own want to....they are very spoiled as well, good luck,jill
