Our cockatiel, Angel, has been lonely. Hes really horny and needs constant attention, very much a needy attention whore. SO, we went and got the little girl at that pet shop just now and brought her home. Shes a fiesty one and totally lovable. She was hand fed so she is tame and very cuddly. Shes still growing her feathers and they cut her wings really short, so when I post pics she might look a little... less than perfect. Angel (our boy) is truly interested in her. He hasn't attacked her once and keeps trying to preen her tail. With their first encounter he kind of inched up to her and said "hello" (literally "hello" lol not cockatiel speech ^__^) and proceeded to try and preen her, which she denied. Shes really taken with his cage and his toys (even though she has her own) and Angel doesn't know how to react, he follows her and then runs away. Hes exploring her cage as I type (trying to get to her millet) and wont approach her other than to try and preen her tail. lol! Its too adorable! I only wish I had a decent webcam. We can't decide on a name. We thought of naming her "Chiyo" in memory of our first MJ plant... But she has huge eyes, so Vhan thought of naming her meimei. Any ideas? Maybe you guys can help. Ok here are pics! I'll show Angel first, since hes the reason shes with us. And this is our new baby girl! Isn't she adorable?
God I love the smell of bird shit when I wake up in the morning. I just don't see birds as true companion/pets, you clip their wings to make them stay around and not leave. My dogs are never farther than 2 steps behind me and they poop outside.
I could never clip her wings, the pet shop did it. Angel has his wings and flies beautifully. We just have to wait a while for her new flight feathers to come in and she can go wherever she wants, just like Angel. And while its possible to teach a bird to poo in its cage, they also have these flight suits that the bird can wear if you're worried about unexpected messes, nothing gets on the bird, nothing gets on you.
So I'm thinking of names. So far we got "chiyo" for our plant that died. We got "meimei" cause it seemed cute. Other than that we can't think of anything... any ideas?
aw mochi you got her! she's adorable! haha and angel is cute as well. i hope they make babies!!!!!!!!!
cockatiels are the shit. my grandfather used to raise em. i like feeding them one seed at a time and watching them unravel the outside to find the inside nutty goodness.
