Hi from Bloor West Village — proud Pionus parent!

Hello! Been lurking on this forum for a bit and finally decided to make an account and participate. I've had my pionus Skittles for about 2 years now. Always nice to connect with other bird people in the GTA — most people I know think I'm crazy for having a bird lol. Excited to be here!

Welcome to the forum! Great to have another bird lover from the GTA. Your pionus sounds adorable — what's their personality like?

I'd suggest trying rearranging the cage every couple weeks to prevent boredom. My avian vet recommended it and it made a huge difference.

This reminds me of when I first got Charlie. I was so overwhelmed but looking back, those early days were actually really special. The bond building phase is tough but beautiful.
