That is awesome the owner was found

whew, l'm so glad he is okay.

I'm so sorry to hear this, l know how hard it is to go through this. I'm praying for your grandma and your whole family.

Thanks Today while l was putting my hand in the cage to start a lttle bit of a taming session. l planned on putting my hand in the cage for less then 2 minutes but instead she escaped out of her cage. At first l thought, oh great because she flew to the ceiling even though her wings are trimmed( but l noticed she is getting new feathers on her wings) she is a very strong flyer. l did not chase her around the room, l decided to leave her and l figured she would eventually go back on her own. Well about an hour after, she flew very close to me and landed near me, l was shocked to see her come so close to me so soon. Since l have had her just for 2 days. Right now she is sitting close to me and watching me, while sitting on the windowsill. She really is friendly and outgoing even though she still will not let me get too close but l only have had her for a very short time. So that is to be expected. Tomorrow l'm planning on phoning my avian vet to book an appointment for Jubejube, for a check up and ask about wing clipping her.

Yes, the taming has been going slow right now. He seemed to have went backwards. l had to grab him to put him in his traveling cage to go out of town and he did not like that. so now he is skittish around my hand again. I'm gettinng him to trust my hand again but it is a slow process. l'm sure it will not be long until he is tamed

Nooo, l cannot believe this, It is so sad to hear this. l'm very sorry for your loss.

oh they are so cute, l love there fluffy heads

lol, an escapee can't wait to see the pictures.

Thanks everyone. My sister and her 5 year old daughter has named my tiel Jubejube l'm not sure right now, since she is new l'm letting her first settle in her cage. So far she is not that skittish of my hand when l change her food and water dishes. She has only hissed at me once so far. So l will see in a few days to see how she reacts to my hand near her and if l can handle her. yes that is what my breeder told me, so far Jubejube is not very vocal but that could be caused by being in a new environment.

l have some good news to tell you all At 6pm today l got a phone call from the lady, she explain to me that the guy who was coming at noon never showed up and he phoned her to tell her that he would come on monday instead. But she told me if l would like the tiel to come today. So l went immediately to her place and l got my Tiel!! She told me that she believes the cockatiel is a female, At the moment she is nameless but l think l might call her Tootsie or Tutti fruity Here she is. sorry for the bars being in the way but she was in a traveling cage before l put her in her cage l snaped a few.

Thanks guys but l have awful news The lady just emailed me saying that someone else is intrested in the teil, was going to see it at noon today. She told me that first comes first :evil and that l could come earlier but l was at church. l'm so mad and sad, l phoned her and left a message and also left and email telling her how heartbroken l am right now. l guess it was not meant to be ~Edit~ l have now emailed another breeder. l'm waitng to hear from them now. Hopefully l will still get a handtamed tiel.

After waiting for almost five years, l'm finally getting a Cockatiel!!! Some of you may remember, wayyyy back in 2006 that l mentioned about wanting a cockatiel. The breeder told me that her cockatiels where sitting on eggs. l would try to contact her to ask about the cockatiels but she would not respond back to me. Then l had another breeder who said she would put me on her waiting list but she has not contact me for three years now. It seemed like no matter who l would contact about their tiels something would happen. l was at a point that l started to give up on ever getting a cockatiel and thought that l would never find my cockatiel who was mean't for me. Well, that all changed just yesterday. l was searching through kijji, when l spotted an ad. All it said was babies. l did not even know if it was about cockatiels but it was. The only problem was there was only one left. l thought that it was probably was sold with my luck with cockatiels. l wrote an email asking about the ad and that l was interested in the baby, lo and behold l got a reply. She told me that she has not sold her last baby. So l replied back saying l would love to have her/him. I also asked how old was the tiel and if it is handtamed. l got a reply today. She told me the baby is 4 months old and the tiel was hand trained but has not been handle lately but the tiel is very friendly and they also let there tiels fly out of there cage daily Here are some picture's of the tiels, l'm not sure which one it is but it is one of them, l will find out more when l phone her tomorrow. When l do get the tiel home l will be quarantining the tiel for a month before I introduce him/her to my budgie Tequila

lol

Congratulations!! What a great photo

What a sneaky little one Doggie is :question: The cage is so awesome, you did a great job!!!

:bliss: Happy fourth of July :bliss: :rofl: :boogie:

l would say both are females :rofl:

Yes, l know how frustrating it is to see someone asks for help in forums and totally ignore the good advice they receive It is like why even bother asking for advice. If you already have decided what you are going to do about the situation :rofl:

I had a quite day for Canada day, l just relaxed at home. At about 11pm l went outside to watch the firework displays from my deck. :rofl: l can say l never had moose,lol. l agree with you, Lamb is so good, l love it but not my family.

He is so cute, l love the sleeping pictures :yes:

He is a cutie. Is his wings clipped with only 2 long feather's unclipped? If his wings are clipped like that, please clip those 2 feather's(If you do not know how to clip ask an avian vet to show you how). It is not a safe clip for budgies. Those 2 feather's can easily get damaged, could cause a feather to break and may bleed if it is a blood feather.

Hi, welcome :yes: You have a beautiful girl.

Hi, welcome :yes:

Awwww, they are cuties :yes: It looks like their names really suits them.

Well done Dave!! Good luck :yes:
