bentley has been wonderfully taking his medicine. he is now down to the last week and a half. we found out that he willingly eats the benebac gel without any coercion! the antibiotics doesn't seem to be his taste, so we do have to towel him for that one, but we give him about 30 minutes to calm down and then we let him lick up the benebac.

we have tried to give him some chopped radishes, but so far, i've only seen him nibble on it, but not really eat it. maybe it is just a matter of time, or it could just be that it isn't his thing.

bentley continues to enjoy being with my husband and to ward me off at all times. when he is not home, i have been able to give him scritches inside and outside of his cage.

bentley doesn't seem to be too afraid of new toys. i have made some new toys for all the birds and he is one of those that will go over at test the new toy.

my husband has been working with exercising bentley. what he does is to lightly place his hand in front of bentley's chest and runs straight ahead. bentley flaps his wings and enjoys his play time with my husband. after a few laps, bentley is winded (as well as my husband, lol)
