Have you double checked your scale to be sure its accurate? 51 seems high even for a 'pudgie budgie'

My friend’s iguana lost its’ tail that way (Not learning how to fly!! :/ ). It was left up on top of an opened door & someone came into the room and closed the door!! :o The poor critter. :eek: [/b] [/size]

Oh I'm definitely sure, I couldn't believe it at first either, I weighed her 3 times and it still showed the same reading. That's what's so frightening I can tell ya, you can feel it in her chest, it's nothing but thick, fat and you can feel the weight on her when you hold her.

It's just more to love!! heehee J/K hey I have a bird about 7 or 8 months old... do you know what she should weigh??... I didn't realize we have to keep watch over their weigh. Which is dummy because I think we have to with every pet. I think Wanda is beautiful! Good luck with her diet! I feel my BooBoo with have to go on one too due to her being very good at getting millet out of me!!!! She is the millet queen!!! lol and she won't eat veggies! So Good Luck to US!!

lol thats great that gave me a good little laugh.She sure seems to have a fiesty personalty.She reminds me of the little kids that pull the others hair and stuff to get attention.Its cute!

Well, Zoey is a cocatoo. And if you were training to fly, you would be right there and would not leave birdie on the door!! But poor iguana!

RIP Iguana

Within the whole day yesterday, I probably got her to do about 20 laps or more in total, not at the same time of course, I let her rest a lot so she could catch her breath. She actually doesn't seem to mind flying around the room. Duncan's been helping her out. Every time she takes off, he flies right beside her like for support, it's so cute. Today I'm gonna try to get her to fly to my hand and bribe her with some lettuce. And all this exercise should give her more energy and she won't be as sluggish anymore. If I continue this routine, she should loose weight in no time

Mine fly a lap every time anyone sneezes or coughs. I guess if they ever need to get more exercise I'll just need to develop a cold. LOL

Sounds familiar!
