Seriously India has worlds biggest insurance company but you Americans can buy and sell insurance for anything like anything. It’s actually quite smart in its own way
You can use something even better than ACV, called Grapefruit Seed Extract. It's incredibly effective! We use one from a brand called NutriBiotic Vegan GSE, which is found on amazon. Good luck! We're definitely fans!
My goodness, it’s like having a baby. One must be patient, careful, caring, and be sensitive. Also one must have plenty of time for the birdie baby. I’ll just enjoy my baby thru you and yours, thank you.
Awe Bogies come so far and is adorable as ever tooo!!💗 I actually had a 7 mos old African Grey that died just because I fed her a blackberry that was just barely over-ripe....But, enough so that it made her really sick!💔 By the time I got over to WSU & their veterinary teaching hospital she had died within 15 min. of getting there. I was absolutely devastated & felt like I had killed my own bird!💔 So you're definitely right at just how quickly they can go downhill.... Thanks for the educational video. I think people compare them to dogs/cats etc. when they are actually far, far more delicate than most pets!!
That sounds SO SCARY! I would be so cared and sad if my budgies got sick! Poor baby bogie! Glad he is better! This was helpful for indicating sickness, especially the crop and vomiting, my budgies always grab something and run and I don’t see what is in their mouths so that should help. Thanks for this video! Love and luck to you and bogie! ❤️💕
@@EMILY662Nicklas Haha! That made me smile! Silly Bogie! Love him to bits! "WHAT DID YOU EAT!?!" That's me with my budgies a lot of the time 😂! The garlic got me! Sending Bogie lots of love!
@@EMILY662Nicklasa ctually, garlic is bad for birds :( here's what i found Onions and garlic Onions contain sulfur compounds that, when chewed, can irritate the lining of a bird's mouth, esophagus, or crop, causing ulcers, and can induce rupture of red blood cells resulting in anemia. Garlic contains allicin, another chemical that can cause anemia and weakness in birds.
@@EMILY662Nicklas yes i agree! its with almost any other animal, birds are really curious so they'll chew or eat nything they find (this doesnt go to all birds)
I am so happy that Bogi is doing better. He is so sweet and how can one not just completely adore him? I love every single one of your videos and have become such a big fan. You have a beautiful energy about you, and I love watching the relationship you have with a bird that has a very special and loving soul. It would be so great if you could make a video on your recipe for Bogi's chop. I'm always on the lookout for your videos. Adore you both!
Thanks so much for sharing. Relieved that Boggy is recoverying and is well My late cockatiel didn't make it after sedation. Now I am more careful with my galah and i follow your advice!!
😊 thank you so much!! My galah was vomiting tonight and I am super stressed 😩 will book an appointment with a vet first thing tomorrow. Hopefully he will be gine
I eat sprouts myself, each time I grow a small batch of sprouts, I only keep them for 2, MAYBE 3 days. Just enough time to get the next batch grown. Love sprouts, especially in spring and summer
My bird seems to make choke/sneeze when we try to pick him up, he is hand trained but’ll run away when you try but if you get too close or he’ll climb up. What do the noises mean (he’s maybe 12-14 weeks if that helps)
You mentioned sprouting, vinegar, cleaning beans. When you have some time would you mind doing a video to show us the proper way to clean and sprout. I always clean the vegetables, wash and soak the beans really well, but would appreciate you sharing your wisdom.
@@flocklife Yeah it's a great way to Stay on top of these little guys, their masters of disguise, but sounds like you're pretty much doing everything right. I have my bird on bird tricks feeding system as well as pellets. Why did your doctor recommend Higgins as well, just out of curiosity?
@@crystaltaylor9807 yeah she recommended Harrison’s to add to the Birdtricks pellets. They told me not to give bogie chop while he was sick so I was worried that he wouldn’t have enough nutrition because the Birdtricks pellet is very low in fats and other vitamins because they are not fortified. If supplemented with vegetables, I’m sure it’s fine but since he wasn’t eating any vegetables I was worried that he would be malnourished. Harrison‘s has fortified vitamins in it

Did you do the free flight training with Birdtricks for Bogie?? I tried so hard to get my rescue african grey to eat their pellets, but she refuses too ughh! So I feed her Roudy Busy mixed with a few other top brands. I just wish she would stop being sooo hormonal omg! I've had her for about 7 months now & she's been hormonal this entire time it seems!? In turn it's my boyfriend that is her trigger and we live together too, so he still can't handle her at all, or she'll draw blood sadly!🤷🏼♀️
Don’t beat yourself up! The fact that your bird is eating pellets as opposed to a seed diet is amazing. Rowdy bush is a fine pellet! I need to make a full post/video about what I’m feeding bogie and why. No I didn’t do free flight with Birdtricks and found a free flight group local to me who helped me out immensely
@@flocklife finally took her to the vet and you're right, she's got a heart murmur and some other pretty serious issues going on, because of the years of neglect mostly!💔
By the way can you please tell me any place where i can by pellets because i dont live in amarica and i want my bird to be on proper diet please help me i have been searchong everywhere and im like 10
OMG raising a parrot is like raising chickens! For chickens when they have poop collecting around their cloaca, the technical term is called... drumroll.... yuck butt. :D
I forgot to mention! Pet insurance or having a little savings set aside is super important when owning any pet, especially a bird!
Seriously India has worlds biggest insurance company but you Americans can buy and sell insurance for anything like anything. It’s actually quite smart in its own way
@@lawyermahaprasad paying little bit a month beats a HUGE vet bill. wish I had pet insurance when I was going through all the hospital trips last week

haha Bogie does that too! im like "WHAT DID YOU EAT"
the other day he got some garlic that fell on the ground and I could smell it on this beak 😂

@@angelague731 I know! Thats why I say to keep floors clean! Bogie forages on the ground for whatever he can get.

I am glad he is okay 🙏🏼😁
ME TOO!!
I’d love to see how you do a cage clean vs a thorough cage clean xx
Great! Will put it on my list :)
I use grapefruit seed extract when sprouting. (GSE) I rinse with this twice a day. I wonder which is better?
Yes! Great question! I still am not sure what’s better between GSE or ACV
Thank you for the very educational video
Parrots love to chew on cords. I have put spiral wrap around their favorite cables (phone chargers) to protect the cables and the birds.

Yes! It’s new knowledge to me and I will totally research and make a video:)
Where do you get a scale from??
@@ReelRemix84758 I got mine off amazon I believe
Where do you get a scale from theres nothing here at my country saudi arabia
Do you check his poop every morning and if so did it change in anyway? I am so glad he's feeling better poor guy your a good bird mommy
So funny you ask that! I am going to do a poop video soon 😂 his poop was pretty normal but poop is a great way to detect illness!

I don't even have a bird lol
Please keep medicine and toxic plants away from your birds!
Please don't vlog and drive, it's very dangerous and bogie needs you for maby more years!
