Now for the big news. Zazu is now FLYING! Yup, finally. This morning was his first few flights. I am surprised at how many attempts he made before breakfast. Then again a few more attempts after his mid-day meal. He is getting his control down well, but his landings need more work. He needs to figure out better where to land... and my head is NOT a landing zone. Early this morning he did bump into a few things, but his night one was much better.
He will be going to his adult cage soon and he will use his hamster cage as his night time cage. I was hoping some nice cages would have gone on sale, but no... So a pretty one will have to wait.
Now for his pictures. Sorry, no flight pictures yet. Just some of him playing in his cuddle bed and being himself.
That's all for now. Updates won't be as often now since there isn't as much to see now that he has his adult feathers. The milestones that will happen now are:1. Flies very well so 2 feathers on each side will be clipped back.
2. Learns to fly well in his new clip so another 2 feathers on each side will be cut.
3. Possibility of another clip of a feather or two depending on how well his flight is with the clips.
4. Down to 2 feedings a day.
5. Down to 1 feeding a day.
6. No more baby formula feedings.
7. Gets a new fancy cage.
8. Meets Benu face to face.
9. Getting a new play gym.
10. Blah blah blah
Hm, I guess there are more things to come. =)
