We had a Cockatiel......she was a brilliant, I came home from work and the cage was opened---she'd fly to the roof fan and play spinning the thing by walking around the four blades. I'd wake up and the little cow pecked my face etc and drink my bloody beer every time I had One.......One day even falling in my glass and I had to grab Her tail -- pull her out -- and she gave me a right dirty lol.
Toby died due to something called egg-binding (the egg was basically unable to be ejected) we were so gutted.
As you may know here I live with my Dad and we bought a (can't really be with a Pet) replacement...a just weined Baby..I saw it and Dad said there was Two there and he chose 'this One'...
I went back to work and got home 4 hours later to find Two there.....He said "I couldn't leave it alone in the shop" lol
Love the little sod's....totally spoilt..though being a Pair they'll never be as Tame as the original, but who cares-----they are spoilt!
Anyone who has Cockatiels etc....the LOVE pasta, Brocalli, Runner Beans and Poppadaoms!!!!............................Don't just feed seed........have fun and make them happy too....as it is we open the door and play, the prison is 5ftx3ftx3ft, we try making it their home.
First Pic, new Birds...............Second is little Toby ("did my dad think that Chicken nugget was a little undercooked"?)...that's far from sick, I know the way we treat them...just tried to lighten it.
*Edit, Toby Pic grabbed off old drive.
