Hi everyone! I'm a long time lurker finally coming out of hiding.

 

I'm 19 and I've had budgies for about ten years. I absolutely adore them!

 

Currently, I have one budgie, Milly. She's two and loves a good head scratch. :bluebudgie:

 

 

 

 

 

As you can see, Milly has vertical issues. :sad:

 

(I've also got a chook, Haenne.)

 

I'm a vet student, and it's not hard to guess what I want to do when I graduate! I'm from west Melbourne, there aren't enough avian vets out here. I've got a good three and a half years to go until then, but loving every moment I get with our feathered friends. My mates from uni can't understand why I squeal with delight every time, so I'm very excited to be joining a forum where everyone shares my enthusiasm!

 

I look forward to meeting you all and becoming part of your lovely community.

 

-Glynnis (Chrysocome) & Milly

I love your pics!!! Welcome, it's awesome that you want to be a vet!

Welcome I'm glad you feel ready to come out of the woodworks and join in the fun :bluebudgie:

 

Milly looks a darling you lucky to have one that didn't outgrow the head scratches! I think you have a darling little angel there, look forward to hearing about her more.

hiya nice to meet you! Milly is absolutely gorgeous!! I love the last picture - i wish oscar would let me give him a good head scratch! :bluebudgie:

Hi and welcome! An avian vet in the making - I am proud to meet you :bluebudgie: Your right, not enough avian vets,and certainly not enough good ones :sad: Hope to see more of your upside down budgie

:sad: Hello its nice to meet you... Your photos are great, Milly looks like an absolute sweet heart and i especially LOVE the name since its my youngest daughters name :bluebudgie: ..

Looking forward to hearing and seeing more of you and Milly about the forums and don't forget to post HEAPS of photos since we all seem to thrive on them here

Thanks all for the welcome, it's nice to meet you

 

Una, that's so cool about her name... I somehow doubt your daughter's name is short for Millet though

don't forget to post HEAPS of photos since we all seem to thrive on them here

You ask, I deliver.

(I hope this comes under 'heaps'... lots of photos ahead!!)

This is the look of, "Take that Orange Vegetable, I am the MASTER."

"One day.. if I train enough... I know can be a real bat!"

 

And what am I but a slave to the giant head with wings?

 

 

"So what's this thing she keeps pointing at me?"

Oh your chook reminds me of my little Pecky, except she's brown... The picture of Haenne looks exatly like what Pecky looks like by my side door begging for food as soon as she hear us in the house!! It's so cute!!
