Hi, I'm Rhiana and my budgie is Hermes. He is almost a year old, and I have been pillaging this website and forums for info for the past 9 months, so I thought it was time I joined up.
I had a budgie as a child that I adored, and last year my partner and I decided to get a pet, we live in an apartment, so I suggested a budgie. My partner was somewhat cynical; he thought a budgie would just sit in his cage and do nothing, like a fish. 2 days after Hermes had moved in, my partner started calling him ours.
He is now the centre of our lives, we talk about him like he is our child, and he even has his own facebook page.http://www.facebook.com/hermes.berminghampol?sk=wall He does have some behavioural issues though, so I am hoping to get some help with him.
I can't wait to get to know everybody!
