Rambo and Myrtle my Amazons are not closed in. Unless Rambo is being punished for something but it is hard to keep the door closed on him when he is hanging on the bars yelling "let me out".
Myrtle never gets in trouble.

They have a schedule of their own. I don't cover them. When they hear me in the morning, Rambo comes down the hall to great me and Myrtle yells "Momma" until I get to her and say good morning.

I only let the Tiels out when I have time to be with them. So only about once a week. They call to me in the morning and Shadow will sing to me at "nite nite". The rest of the time they chatter and play together.

Everything takes a nap at the same time in the afternoon. The silence is earie.

Yoshi (my Green Cheeked), is out more often than not. She knows the rules of the house and she seemingly tries to teach the lovies how to behave. She's out about 4-9 hours a day. Depending on the day of course, some of us have to work. But normally, she's out more often than not.




They do teach each other. It is like when one dog house breaks another.

As long as I'm home and awake Ace's cage door is never closed.
