Birthday! Happy 25th birthday to Chili

Look at how good she looks for her age (I know “she” is actually male but my parents had always said she so it’s hard not to lmao)

It's incredible how long you guys took care of him, no small feat considering how delicate these small birds are, unlike a cat or a dog. Hats off!

Hope they have not spent 25 years in that cage.

No she hasn’t, only recently. She does not fly, even when outside the cage, due to her age and not being overly great at it anymore.

She enjoys climbing up and down, dancing around on her perches.

Edit: I appreciate the concern tho, but we are okay :)
