very nice nikki, she looks a very pretty little girl, and torres looks very well. :) parrotlets are odd with their fascination with feet whether its their own feet or ours :lol:

I take it they get on well together apart from the normal parrotlet bickering :)

they seem to be getting on ok. more and more each day though.
torres seems to be the leader and luna just follows him around, and if she's lucky enough to get torres in a good mood, she sometimes gets a preen.

That seems about right :) bubbles spends a lot of time preening squeak, and if shes lucky she gets a couple of seconds worth of quite rough preening, until hes got his head down waiting for more. she also protects him eek. and will lean forward to have a go at me if i speak to him for two long.

She is a pretty girl, nikki :wub: I can see why you got her.

You know, we thought Pesto had finished his molt & got his "manly man" feathers when he looked the same as Torres. Then, a while later, he had even more blue on the sides of his doughnut :D I think "Big T" will probably get even more blue also :P

Is it just me, or does her cere seem very predominant? Has she had a vet visit yet? I'm sorry if this has already been talked about. They are both very cute!

I ask about the cere because I know a few people who have had that symptom with major health problems (like PBFD).

I noticed that her cere does look a little bit darker or swollen, but I couldn't tell if it was the lighting or what.

Nikki, the cere is the part right above the beak where the nostrils are. When you look at Luna does her cere look like Torres's? If it looks a little puffy, you might want to get it checked out at the vet. Every new baby that you add to your flock should have a vet check anyway, so it's just a good idea.
