An Unexpected Rescue! (Not a reptile!!)

[snakemama]

Well, Iris' well-bird exam went great! The vet suggested a few modifications to her toys and had me remove her Happy Hut (No nest-y budgies here!). She took a throat swab, a fecal sample, and a few drops of blood, and removed Iris' leg band. Aside from being a little dusty and dehydrated (Both being fixed now with regular baths), everything looked perfect!

Yay! I am so glad Iris got a good report from the vet, and she felt comfortable enough to have fun! Good girl, Iris! (Snakemama, do you, or does one of your employees, take her home at night?) I bet her chirping and bird sounds are very cheerful in the store!

We cover her up to sleep in the store at night, though someone will take her home on the nights when, say, the floor cleaners come in and spread cleaning chemicals all over the floor. I'm currently living in a loft with a Jack Russell mix and four cats, so it probably won't be me who takes her home those nights!!

Since we're not allowed to have a radio in the store, budgie chirps are a nice cheery substitute!

I'm so glad that you were the one to adopt her and that her vet exam went well. I look forward to being able to meet her in person the next time I buy some canned cat food in your store.

Snakemama, how is Iris doing in your store? I bet she's a hit!

Iris is getting much bolder and more playful! She's still not interested in veggies, bu she'll come around I'm sure!

Glad to hear Iris is coming around. Try cutting up an apple & put a wedge between the cage bars. My keets will eat apples but no veggies.
