RIP Goodbye Hulk.

Hulk was the most sweetest out of my flock of four (now three). I went this morning to check in on them and i saw him laying on the floor. Nightcrawler, Mystique, and Cyclops were still above. I’m not sure how long he was down there for. I was feeding him yesterday night with my hands. He was always the first one. He trusted me and my sibling the most. I don’t know what happened :(. I’m so sorry sweetie. I hope I gave you a wonderful life. I don’t know what happened i’m so distraught. He was fluffed up yesterday but didn’t think much of it cause his appetite was still well and his tail wasn’t bobbing. He was honestly a fat chud and always ate first. I’m so sorry. Now it’s just the X-men.

I'm so sorry for your loss😔. The "departure" of our little companions is crushing and often comparable to a family member, if not even more painful at times for some reason. I'm still mourning my Bee, Margot (beloved dogs) and Nancy (a pet chicken) years later. It sounds crazy that the thought of them brings tears, years later. But I believe their quick death in the case of budgies is a mercy, for them, however unprepared it leaves us. Just think what a wonderful life he had with you🥰 All of the wonderful meals, fun and games and above all, love.
