Sleepy sparkbird

Aahh I wasn't going to post today because I'm sick, but he was too cute not to share!!

I asked the vet yesterday on a call about keeping the cone off since he was so much happier without it and not showing any signs of aggression to his leg, and the answer was yes! As long as he isn't stupid and tries to bite or even itch his leg, it can stay off until Wednesday (appointment) :))

Since it's been off for most of today, he's been so much happier and alert- I left his food bowl out of the cage to remind me to clean it and he went out of the cage to go eat from it. Unheard of behaviour- he's being so much more active!!

This has made me happier in terms of his growth, and that yesterday was simply a very low spark day for him

Oh other notes too I've been very proud of the fact I've figured out how to ram medicine down his throat without the help of 2 other people, which like people said suggests that he's getting more used to it

Very Sparky day today, enjoy my precious lad sleeping comfortably for the first time in forever. He's been making the most of this ability the whole day 💕

Additional photo of him next to diaval when I let him in for bonding time. same age same clutch.. I find it hilarious how diaval is literally massive in comparison and I hope you do too xD
