I'm sorry they are so blurry, but I couldn't get my camera to work right. This is a pretty typical dinner for them.

That is Alex's tail, followed by Danny, Milton, & Evie

OMG! They're beautiful!!!!! I love your tiels! It makes me so happy to see Alex happy and healthy again. :D

Could you please tell us what everything they're eating is? :D

BTW, why does Evie still have that green *mark* on her crest? :p

In that picture they are eating green beans, (a favorite of Alex's) carrots, rice and beans, a bread stick, and scrambled eggs with cheese. They eat the scrambled eggs with cheese everyday. They love it and it's a good way for them to get their calcium. I also prepare the veggies just for them usually. The other stuff is just food we were having at dinner that night. It looks like way too much food, and it is. I use a lot of the veggies at once because I don't want one can to last more than 3 days in the refrigerator.

That green mark on Evie's head is from a marker. When I picked her out she was too small to come home. They marked her head so they would know which one was mine. It's starting to wear off, but it hasn't yet. I have no idea what kind of marker that was, but it's taking forever! :p :rolleyes:

I try my best to discourage egg laying. A few months ago Alex almost died from being egg bound. It took a lot of prayers and a lot of money to save her. I know I can't completely stop her, but I try. She still gets to see the boys daily when they eat together. Evie is still too young to lay eggs :)

Milton and Evie are new. The vet said Alex shouldn't live with any males. Danny was really lonely all alone, so I put money on Evie to hold her and had a DNA test done. I thought she was a boy because of her colors. Evie is a girl and I didn't want Danny to live with a girl, but I was already attached to Evie. I took Evie anyway, but I adopted Milton to live with Danny. Alex and Evie live together and Danny and Milton live together. So far everything is working out great.

Alex and Danny's aren't clipped, which is the way I prefer them. Milton's were clipped by the shelter and once they grow back they won't be clipped again. I'm not sure about Evie's. Either they were clipped before I picked her up or they haven't grown in enough for her to fly. She is getting better though. She actually made it from her cage to the boys the other day. :)
