You can't see them super clearly, but in the light of my lamp you can see they do stick out and cast a tiny shadow when she moves her head.

She seems to have had more blue spots appear since I got them before christmas, which is definitely a thing I didn't know birds could do.

I love these two, so I'm going to do my absolute best for them - I've had birds in the past (even a cockatoo as a kid), but I'm pretty certain I wasn't the best owner I could've been. So, I'm gonna be asking for advice on here, sorry in advance if I'm annoying :)

UPDATES BELOW

(Sorry about the lighting, it's super early rn.)

I have two birds, a male named Pazu and a female named Sheeta, I think they're siblings due to their similar markings and birthdates.

Sheeta is a massive bully, often tormenting Pazu, and I sometimes even see her peck or pull his leg - it's not constant, but it's persistent.

Pazu is also really bad at flying, I think he has a very minor birth defect in the "elbow" of one wing, but I can't be certain as I only found it by touch and only had Sheeta's wings for comparison. But it does mean he often crash-lands when out and about, and can't gain altitude very easily.

Finally, he's been sitting on the bottom of the cage like this more often, rather than on the swing that he used to like. Even during the day, I'll sometimes find him curled up with his head under his wing, trying to sleep.

Can someone give any advice or information about what could be causing his problems? My mother suggested putting them in separatr cages, which is becoming more likely...

Update: I've booked a vet appointment for tomorrow morning, at a clinic which isn't exactly close, but they're the only place with a bird specialist available. I hope my transport service is ok with the cage.

Update 2: Looks like he has a respiyory infection - Thr vet gave him an injection, and he might need up to six injections in the coming weeks, but he's home and settled now.

I also asked about his wing, and it's a congentital issue, so his flying won't improve. That's ok though, he's my special boy.

P.S. I'm getting a second cage tomorrow, but I had to bring Sheeta today, and DAMN she can bite XD

I stepped on a clam and was teleported somewhere I don't recognize called "the palladium reef", trying to get back away from a "sultan croc" landed me beneath a lake then this happened...

Do the clams send you to another clam? So much for yesterday's Daily lol.

I didn't know this was even possible.

After I pulled up my garden recently, I found these tomato seedlings sprouting from the tomatoes I couldn't preserve - what do I do with these?

They're too clumped up, and it won't be spring here until september, so I can't decide what to do with them. I can't just leave them, as the garden needs another layer of soil soon.

Those plants were a surprise, but I only got one bowl of tomatoes before things went sideways. I pulled them up after neglecting the garden for too long, and preserved these from the few good ones I could collect.

I'll start planting these again in september, weather permitting, but the garden bed needs some TLC first.

I have a logo for a project of mine, but I also have a social media preview image that I'd like to use when linking from elsewhere.

i.e. This project has a logo in "toylogo.png", but when I link externally, github automatically shows the contents of "toypreview.png" which has better formatting for news feeds. If anyone has advice for how to replicate this in a stock gitea image, I'd be super grateful. Thanks!
