A couple of years ago I had to go away for 10 days and the rest of the people in my house had to as well. We had a pet sitter come in once a day to feed the birds and the cats and that was it. I have a Senegal and a Budgie. Both were just fine when I got home. A little bit peeved at me but that didn't last very long. I think your fids will be just fine.

Just to add a bit more...when my Senegal was very young I had to leave him with friends for 8 months because of my immigration to the US. He eventually got his "immigration" too and we were reunited. He remembered everything about me and still loved me as much as before I left. So I think if my baby can last out the 8 months and still love me the same and recognize me immediately and everything yours will be ok. Let me tell you those were a long 8 months! I was so happy when I finally got his papers and could go pick him up! He sat on my lap in a travel carrier for the whole 10 hour drive and was just as happy as could be.
