Oh my gosh! This morning we were in the kiddo's room and the babies would glide down to where the others were. I didn't take a whole of to that but i knew it was exercise to their wings. Then just now, Allison has Jello and out bam. He flew off her and took off around the room then crashed landed onto a dresser. I took him and put him on top of the cage. Not long after off he went to a window (thankfully the screen broke his crash) and then he took off around the room to the other side of the room and to another window again with screen to break his crash. I couldn't hack no more crashing for one day so i put him back. Now he's on her perch all grumpy with me. Now to find somewhere decently safe with lots of open room to teach them to fly.

Bijou can fly to. Only he never had much of a chance yet like Jello. He took off from allisons bed and flew right into a wall which was about 2-3 feet away. Good thing they can't fly fast. I'll get some new pics of them later but for now it's just omg! Also they now have die on their heads.
Jello - green
Aspen - blue
Laki - red . they all look a like so i needed a way to tell them apart before it was to late. Sigh, i wish i could find some open ring bands.

I think i'm going to put them in slushs cage for the day on the platform. She is out of her cage and wont mind. That way if they want to fly they can and i can leave a side door open if any of the budgie wish to go in. All the birds are really good around the babies but don't bother with them. Going to set them up on there so they can't fall off and give them food and water seeing as they are eating seeds.

Edit: Here's some pictures. No i didn't place them on the perches they did that themselfs.

Incase you are wondering whats up with the dye on the sky blue's head it so i can tell who is who. As of right now they all look the same beside size of their tail. Technically i need some open ring bands but have no idea where to get some.
