Hello, everyone!
My bird Spiky’s been moulting for a while. He’s bad-tempered in this period and he sleeps a lot and eats a lot! On top of that, because he’s moulting, he looks tatty and miserable so I can’t help saying to him “Oh, what a shame, Spiky! You look like an old man!” And believe it or not, as soon as I said that to him, he went mad at me! He said something like ” Kaa, pipipipi” with an angry face.
I hope his moulting will finish soon.
