Sparky tried exiting his cage on his own again today.
He can't get enough lift to make it back up to the cage from the floor quite yet,
so I placed him up on his playgym that was sitting on top of the cage.
He didn't seem to mind it and looked around at everything from the "new perspective".
He's looking pretty confident up there Deborah, first picture a little hesitant and then " yes, this is my castle" and " Oh, you want a different pose, like this?"

Sparky is ready to go out and play! Looking around for spots of interest in the room He is gorgeous, the way he is standing on that gym, like a very important speaker.
Got to love that Sparky! Good name as he lights up the place. He poses so well.
Say Deb, when they are young like that are their flight feathers all in? I thought Pepito was clipped as his are so much shorter than Sunny's. Shows you what I know. Still learning!
Hi, Lucy!
Yes, at this age the flight feathers are all in and if the budgie's wings are not clipped, they can fly quite well.
Sparky's wings are clipped -- but only very slightly.
He can already get quite a bit of lift - about 40" so he can make it from the floor and clear the bottom of the cage door to get back in the cage all on his own now. Yaaay!

:laughing1: I'm aware of that. I was simply commenting on how well he's doing so far with his attempts at flying with a partial clip of his wings.
