Adventures

New home, yet somehow different, luckily there are the familiar foods hidden in their bowls!

Play time is always an option when you’re this green!

Preen time and the ongoing battle to nap never ends! These are the last photos we received of Chip and Tillie at their new-found forever home.

But all stories eventually come to an end. This post marks the final chapter of our lives being entangled with the troublemaking green-cheeked conures that stirred our hearts. While their time with us was short, they will always be remembered and loved. May their lives be long and packed with adventure at every turn in all their future forever homes!

Just our luck! The day after Tillie and Chip went to their new forever home, we get the DNA sexing results back. The results showed that both chirpies are male!

To be fair though, the sample feathers sent were not plucked from either bird, they had just fallen out. The specifically say not to do that… but who could steal a feather from such lovely birdies. Not me, that’s for sure!

Chip and Tillie fight over the remains of their battle from yesterday… the remains of the sultana box. Lucky for both of them we had some fresh sultana boxes ready to go for their new home!

We almost get to see both Tillie and Chip in this video. Rumblings from beneath the warm blanket around their home reminds us that they are loved by all.

The last goodnight chirpies from me. From tomorrow onward you will be in the care of another. I hope they take good care of you, you will be greatly missed. I won’t forget either of you.

Chip catches up on his bathing schedule and has a really good bath! Chip also makes sure that every other bird knows about it by singing his bath time song!

He who wields the sultana box never wears the crown! A literal tug of war between the two best birdies in the parrot world. Or perhaps they were working together to destroy the sultana box?

Tillie and Chip explore the caves while battling fierce enemies from distant lands. At the end of the long battle they are reunited with banana-salmon, their delicious treat for victory!

Tillie and Chip have a bath, Tillie goes on the entire bath circuit sampling every different plate and bowl she can find. Chip? He almost has a bath, which is a win I suppose! Includes trouble making over on the freshly cleaned bedding!

Fully armed with two wings per parrot, Tillie and Chip battle their way through post-it notes, pilot pens and other goods! The victor? Watch on to see…
