00:00I actually would compare her to a dog if she could spend all day cuddling she would. She's so
00:06codependent. I had no idea that birds could be just as clingy as puppies. If I move to the kitchen
00:14she's following me to the kitchen she's literally glued to me. We are fully together 24-7. If she
00:21can't see me she's screaming. She's a diva. But at the beginning Olive took some time to
00:29come out of her shell. When I first got her she was frozen solid for like two hours.
00:36And I kept her out of the cage because I wanted her to adjust to being out.
00:44After like a month she let me pet her which is a huge step for us. And then after that
00:50she just wanted to be pet 24-7. I knew birds could be affectionate but this cuddly and
00:56clingy. If I'm not awake by eight o'clock on the dot she starts screaming until I come
01:03let her out. And I let her out and I call it her witching hour. She just kind of goes
01:07crazy
01:07for an hour in the morning. Chirping, flying everywhere. It sounds crazy but I think we
01:14kind of understand each other. Like I can read her body language. I can anticipate her feelings
01:19and what she's gonna do and she kind of runs her own show. She's fully a functioning
01:26member of the household. Seeing how obsessed Olive is with her mom might be one of the cutest
01:31things I've ever seen. It's so crazy because we're only a year in and she could meet my children
01:37one day you know. We're so bonded.
