I think Smidgy understands that's its him in some way 😊 I say that because usually if he sees another bird his crop goes up and he has a very obvious reaction. Here, he seems to be looking himself up and down lol crop is slick to his head so he's more inquisitive! I'm also in the mirror too so that might be helping him realise it's him. But if I left a mirror in his cage then yeah he very well could be convinced it's another bird. That's why you avoid mirrors as it effects your bond with the bird and triggers breeding behaviours. ❤
@jacob123 bahaha! He's wet! Haha 😄 he hates the collar but he has to wear it because he can seriously hurt himself by plucking too much and breaking skin. But he's incredibly agile and bites when I try to put it on. But If I give him a bath he's much more calmer and I can get it on. So he looks funny because he had a shower that's all 🚿 lol 😄
It's a plucking collar lol he looks wet because he just had a shower 🤣 he's much calmer after a bath so I can then get the collar on him. Otherwise he goes bat shit crazy and bites me lol
I actually don't know 🤷♀️ I got Smiggy from a pet shop in South Australia so probably a species most comon in this area I'm guessing. But I do actually want to get a DNA test done so I'm sure that should tell me 🤔
@AlyssAmationNation He's a Galah cockatoo but I just don't know what exactly species of Galah cockatoo he is LOL but yes he's very pretty 😉💙 My son named him smiggy lol I named him something else but my son just kept calling him smiggy 😆 so eventually it just became smiggy lol
@lindagough15 Yep! Exactly lol Im just not sure of what exact species of Galah he is! There's a few different species like ones that get the red bumps round their eyes and one that's don't ect.
Awe wow! That's so cool! 🦜 And they definitely are like a child haha! They have the mental capacity of a 3 year old and can live up to 75 years in captivity! So they are a life long commitment as they will usually out live their owners. Smiggy is 2 years old next month and was the best decision I ever made ❤️ All of the squawking, seed mess, poo down my shoulder and chew marks on my door frames and coffee table are all worth it! 🤣
