Happy 1st Hatchday, JJ!
Our Soft-Feathered Sweetheart Turns One Today! 🥳

One whole year of our gentle lad JJ — time really flies when you’re as lovely as he is. Hatched in a different aviary but destined to end up here, JJ quietly fluttered into our lives and straight into Chipette’s heart (and let’s be honest — ours too!). 🥰

He’s the picture of calm in a flock full of chaos. Soft-spoken, kind-eyed, and a total cuddlebug when the mood strikes. Whether he’s sitting proudly next to Chipette on the nest or sharing a peaceful perch with his pals, JJ brings a quiet kind of magic to Finch HQ.

Our favourite black-cheeked boy, and a perfect gent through and through — Happy Hatchday, JJ. You might not shout the loudest or cause the most drama — but we see you, and we love you all the more for it. 🥰

Happy Hatch Day, Trewbies! 🥳

Starsky & Hutch — better known as the Trewbies — hatched one whole year ago today! Born to our beloved Drew and the much-missed Tear, these two cheeky lads have grown into confident, well-fed, and very spoilt young beeps. Even though they carry on with the loaf tradition giving my friend a heart attack every time they do it, just like they did here at Finch HQ. 😅

They’re currently living the high life in the aviary April came from, complete with top hens for girlfriends and bellies full of treats (confirmed by their mucky faces and snack-induced roundness when we visited last week!). I’m almost certain April might be a Trewbie special as well. It’s the familiar look of sass that makes me suspect. 🤣🥰

We couldn’t be prouder of these two. Happy first hatch day, boys — Tear would be so proud of her handsome sons! 🥰

Happy 1st Hatch Day to Bonnie – our Baby Nugget! 🎉

Today marks a big milestone for our tiniest, sassiest survivor – Bonnie. She’s officially an adult, but she’ll always be my baby nugget.

- She hatched with black spot, a severe illness that’s fatal for most hatchlings

- Survived, though her growth was stunted for a while

- Slowly but surely, she caught up with her growth and blossomed

- Pretended she couldn’t eat seeds during weaning just to get more millet (classic Bonnie!)

- Dealt with eyesight issues from her rough start, but it doesn’t stop her in the slightest

- A sassy, spicy little nugget who’s got personality for days

-Loves to snuggle with her momma Nancy when she’s in the mood

- And of course, she’ll answer back when she’s not getting her own way with me (typical Bonnie!)

The flock, her Dadther, and I would be lost without her. We’re so lucky to have this little sassy fighter in our lives! 💖

🦜 JoJo the African Grey

Meet JoJo, one of my fabulous at-home sitting clients! She’s booked in for multiple visits, and every single one is filled with sass, side-eye, and some very colourful language. 😅

JoJo prefers the comfort of her own home (and who can blame her?) where she can:

- Swear like a true feathered diva
- Makes her opinions on new toys very clear
- Enjoys head scritches — but only if you ask nicely
- Tells Alexa what to do (and sometimes me, too)

While sitting for your bird at home, I also offer:

- Complimentary post collection
- Grocery pick-up ready for your return
- Peace of mind with someone popping in, keeping your home secure. 🔒

Photos are always shared after clients’ humans are safely back home — for privacy and security reasons. All images are posted with owners consent!

🚨 Finch HQ: Temporary Relocation Notice! 🚨

For the foreseeable future (approx 2 weeks), the beloved beepers that are Finch HQ will be staying with their Dadther out of Leeds while I take care of some much-needed bits back home — including decorating and DIY that’s definitely not beeper-safe (paint fumes and feathers don’t mix!)

⭐️ While the decorating is ongoing, I will STILL BE offering sitting for your feathered family in the comfort of your home. I just won’t have my flock at home with me! ⭐️

I’ll be getting plenty of photo updates from their Dadther, and I’ll keep sharing their mischief, milestones, and moments while they’re living their best lives away from the home reno zone.

It’s a little strange (very quiet) without all the beeps, but I know they’re in the best hands and getting thoroughly spoiled (as always). 🥰

Updates from their Dadther incoming soon!

We Have a New Girl in the Flock! 🥰🥳

Say hello to our newest arrival – a very young little hen who needed a fresh start. She’d been having a bit of a tough time in her previous aviary, where some of the older birds were giving her a hard time, so her lovely human reached out to give her the chance at a gentler, more peaceful life.

We picked her up last Saturday while visiting my dad, from a kind friend near Budgie Rescue - Wirral. April was already safe and well cared for – now she’s getting some extra tailored support, and will soon have a whole new flock of friends to meet. 🥰

She’s currently in quarantine and will be heading to the vets soon for a full health check – including the ever-glamorous p**p test. Only the best care for our feathered residents at Finch HQ! 💩

She’s the same size as Bonnie and the absolute spit of a young Kelly and Tear. It’s safe to say the boys are probably already preparing to fall out over her once she joins the main flock. Although, the boys won’t know what’s hit them once she finds her perch and starts bossing them around. 🤣🙈

Her name is April Teardrop – a sweet tribute to both the month she joined us (April, symbolising new beginnings) and in memory of her late grandmother, our beautiful girl Tear. She’s already stolen our hearts. 🥰

Happy Easter from Finch HQ! 🥳

The beepers will spend the day causing mayhem (as usual), indulging in seasonal snacks (millet, not chocolate — we promise!), and fluffing up in the spring sunshine. 🥰

There will no doubt be cuddles, chaos, and a few suspiciously egg-cited glances between some of the couples… 😅👀

From our feathered family to yours, we’re wishing you a joyful, peaceful, and very chirpy Easter Sunday and long Bank Holiday weekend! 🥰

☀️ Sunny by Name, Sunny by Nature ☀️

Sunny absolutely melted into her favourite perch today — chilled, content, and soaking up the peaceful vibes like the little ray of sunshine she is. ☺️

Even with just one leg (she’s a proud little amputee), nothing holds her back from living her best life. She’s strong, sassy, and full of warmth — proving every day that a little difference doesn’t stop big joy. 🥰

I think she was also taking a moment for herself… probably needing some peace from Rusty and his relentless wooing — of both her and Nellie! A girl can only take so many serenades before she needs a nap. 😅

Also, I’d just like to add: I’m very jealous of her front boobage. She’s fluffy, fabulous, and effortlessly perfect. 🥰

🌙 Unexpected Sleepover Club 🌙

Last night’s surprise? Shadow and Kelly willingly shared their cosy sleeping tub… with Bonnie!

That’s right — the Young Queen of Sass herself was invited (or possibly just inserted herself) into the sleepy snuggle pile. Miraculously, no one got pecked, pushed, or backchatted… and peace reigned.

It’s not often Shadow lets his guard down or Kelly shares her space — but it seems Bonnie’s chaotic charm might be winning hearts after all. Or maybe they were just too sleepy to protest. 😅

🪺 Mum Mode: Activated 🪺

Nancy was spotted having a quiet (but firm) word with Little Chip — reminding him to look after her girl, Bonnie. Because no matter how much sass Bonnie dishes out, she’s still Nancy’s baby… and mums don’t miss a thing.

To his credit, Little Chip handled it like a true gent — calmly easing Nancy’s anxieties and showing her that his feelings for Bonnie are genuine (and respectful!). He’s still a little nervous around Bonnie’s fiery side, but he’s clearly smitten. 🥺

We’re not saying he got the official stamp of approval… but Nancy did let him share a perch afterwards. 🥰

👑 Kings of the Cage 👑

Wee Martie and Little Chip were caught striking their best royal poses last night — perched high, chests puffed, and looking like the absolute Kings of the Cage.

Whether they’re ruling with fluff or sass (usually both), these two definitely know they run the place. No millet moves without their approval… and they’ve each chosen their queens to reign beside them: Roma for Martie, and Bonnie for Little Chip. 🥺

All hail the tiny monarchs and their sassy sovereigns!

Butter Wouldn’t Melt… Or Would It?

Roma caused absolute chaos yesterday evening just before bedtime — standard procedure for the reigning queen of mischief. But now? She’s perched like a perfect angel, beak clean, feathers fluffed, and pulling off her best “who, me?” face. 😅

And just to add to the drama… she let Martie between her underfluffies. That’s right. Miss Roma, all sass, spice and feigned innocence, has clearly chosen her prince of chaos. Can we expect eggs soon? 🥚🐣

In the meantime there’s more love songs from Martie (and side-eyes from the rest of the flock) as he tries again to get in between her fluffies. 🙈

Loaf Mode: Activated 🥖🍞

Drew has officially entered his favourite nap formation: the loaf.

No legs, no neck, just one perfectly tucked little beeper pretending he’s a tiny feathered bread roll. He snoozes like this often, especially because of his neurological condition (twirling) — and it’s clear this cosy little loaf position is comfy and secure for him.

Even sweeter? He often loafs near his best friends, making the softest, snuggliest group nap scene imaginable. 🥺

Loafing: it’s not just a posture, it’s a lifestyle.

A Little Legend Was Laid, A Year ago Yesterday! 🥳

It’s hard to believe, but just two weeks ago yesterday, the egg that would become our beloved Bonnie was laid. From that tiny shell came big personality, maximum sass, and a bird who’s been causing chaos and stealing hearts ever since. Even when it didn’t seem that she was going to thrive when she hatched. 🥺

She might be small, but Bonnie’s presence is mighty — and it all started with Ted getting his wing over with Nancy and one little egg amongst the three fake ones shown here, being laid. 🥰💜

Chipette’s Bad Hair Day! 🪮👩🏻‍🎤

So… someone aka Lady Chipette may have gotten p**p stuck to the back of her head. 🙈

Cue a very gentle emergency bath and a delicate detangling session with a clean mascara brush — which, frankly, she did not appreciate. The end result? She’s now rocking a full punk rock look, complete with gravity-defying fluff like she overdid the hair gel. I threatened to buy her a tiny studded belt and a fake beak piercing to go with her look, but I clearly took it too far as she’s now giving me the cold wing. 🤣🙈

She’s clean, she’s furious, and she looks like she’s about to start a rebellious bird band. To which JJ said he’d be on back up vocals. 🤘🏻

Sorry, Chipette… but hygiene before hardcore. 🤣🙈
