After much research at the local pet stores we learned the following items:
- They need roommates.
- They need sea salt water to bathe in.
- They need spritzed 1-2 x/week.
- They have special food, including shrimp.
- They need to be submerged in water for 1 minute 1x/week.
- They can have snacks such as pineapples.
- They have a water bowl and need sponges to be wet to put around the "beach"...note their new home.
So, after a few more dollars at the pet store....
We have a new home:
We have roommates: Cecil and Herman.
So lets take a census of the population in the house:
- 4 Parakeets-CiCi, JiJi, Kyle, and Jasper
- 2 Parrots-Big Girl and Rockie
- 1 beta fish-Syta
- 3 Hermit Crabs-Herman, Cornelius, and Cecil
- 2 Humans
- 2 Jeeps
- 3 Boats-Ruby, Hattie, and Bayley
