Well, so far from what I can tell, Goofy and B.B. have seemed to form somewhat of an odd relationship. For the record here, anyone who's yet to be familiar with our little angels, B.B. is the new kid on the block, while Goof's been the primary suspect for quite sometime.

Now take one Goofy lovebird, having previously been my only fidkid, has most assuredly long since bonded with me. Add to him one wacky B.B lovebird, and we now have what I feel is "The odd couple". Thankfully though, along with my excitement that they might just find each others company "irresistable", i've also prepared myself in the event they lack the same enthusiasm I had before they met.........So while their behavior may very well remain incorrigible, it is by no means anything less than exciting. Most often while Goof peers deep into my eye's, there's B.B running playful circles about my head. Occasionally, Goof will unglue his "eye" from mine to spot check on where he thinks B.B ought to be. Ah, well, at least their not tearing after one another as if they had just reached puberty with only one female left on the planet.

To sum at least sum of this up. Goof wants nothing more than to have me all to himself, but, will compromise by allowing B.B. access provided he stays at least 6-8 inches away.......:roll:......B.B on the other hand, thoroughly enjoys exceeding those limits, yet for the most part prefers to remain a safe distance. ..........:).......... Both have managed to pick up each others habits in no time flat .....So what are these habits you might ask? ... It now seems Goof wants very much to look like B.B.....:wink:....Lets remove some feathers!....:x.....Good part is, at least B.B doesn't pick his skin, so now neither does Goof!.......Goof now likes to shower under the running faucet. Something totally unheard of until B.B paved the way!.........B.B has in turn picked up very well on how to get belly kissies, toe tickles, and scritchies on demand. This of course, compliments of Goofy having turned himself inside out for the whole world to see.

For now, my guess is, while I may always have to remain in between for fear of a sudden injury, caring for two different lovebird personalities that clash isn't at all that bad. Most cherished, is both lovies get to have their special moments with me at anytime throughout the day, with the exception of course that evening time is still adherent to Goofy gathering his reassurance that me and him are "The ones".......:blush:......Interestingly though, the last few evenings i've noticed B.B has ever so slowly began creeping up my pant leg to crab a few nightime scritchies.........:rolleyes:........You know, I really think Goof's starting to get tired of chasing him away....(hopefully there's NO sudden surprizes from either one)..........:confused:

Whats really odd, is I often think if they were the same colour they would get along fairly well. Not true I keep telling myself, not true............:)

Yep! Lovebirds are known to be jealous and it sounds like Goofy fits the bill:whistle:. All in all, however, it sounds like BB is taking everything in stride and will continue to mold his way into your home and Goofy's world. Despite some little bumps, it sounds like things are going really well with BB and Goofy. I'm sure once they realize they can cause oh so much trouble working as a team, you will miss these good ole days:rofl:.
