    Sad news, little Solo didn't make it :(

    I believe he was like a premee. He was underdeveloped when he hatched. He should have been covered in feathers when he was born and he wasn't. He should have been sitting up or standing the day after he was hatched and he wasn't. 3 weeks into it, he was still laying on his back and not able to stand without help. I think that maybe even his internal organs might not have developed fully. He is buried in the bird garden with my other birds who had moved on. His parents are fine as animals accept death in a different way than we do. No more baby birds in this house. I don't want to go through this again. Solo died Feb 21st sometime in the early morning hours. I was going to let you all know yesterday but with all the drama going on here I didn't have the time and after things settled it just didn't seem like the right time. I believe Solo has gone on and will probably be reborn into another animal body and a stronger body at that. Those are my beliefs. As Soul, he still has a right to life and one longer than 3 weeks. :)

    I miss his presence and still forget when the thought comes that I should check on him. Then I remember he's gone. :(

    I think so Dolly. I think that even if he had made it to adulthood, he might have had defects or many complications.

    That is so sad to hear! I'm sitting here crying for you and him! He gave it a good fight though! So sorry,Colleen!

    He did his best and the day before he went I had been holding him and he was peeping out this little song that sounded so happy. It was not his regular peep. It was like a song. I guess it was his thank you for his time with us. :)

    Thanks Clu. No tears though. He'll have a better body the next time ;)

    Maybe he'll be an eagle! In his next life. Bless him!

    Thank you to both you and the Mrs. I appreciate your words and hers.

    at least he would have been more comfortable in his short life than if he had hatched in the wild, very sad news

    I know the little bird meant alot to you, looking forward to raising it . Hope it doesnt discourage you from trying again to raise another.  The loss of a pet is not easy. I wish you well, Really.

    No, there will be no more. I have 15 birds now. Solo was a surprise. I value the time he was here but I will not go through this again.

    Well then, you've done well.
    My brother once had a Grey Cheek Parakeet who was finger trained, he used to sit on my finger and be content to groom the short beard I had at the time. When he had enough he would lean towards his cage for me to take him to his room. His name was Ian !
    I look forward to getting one for myself when I can.

    Colleen, i'm so sorry to hear about Solo, Budgies are one of my favourite birds, i see them flying around in my back yard all the time.---R.I.P. LITTLE SOLO.

    For animal lovers at aka it has not been a happy week. First it was the sad news of hectors seven year old cat and now poor little Solo. For three weeks he put up a brave fight but alas it was not to be. So sad for you Colleen.
