Im after 4x Bird feeders for the cage as there abit pecked and broken,
he actually escaped through one lol I found him sitting at the pc maybe he was intending to post here lmao!

btw I would like him to come out of the cage but one thing at a time,
when I put items in his cage he's attemping to bite and keeps opening his beak!

im hoping he will eventually get used to me and he will perhaps come and sit by me shame the other owner didn't attempt to bond with him

i'll look-out for new perches Shelly
and of course more toys he's gonna be spoilt of course

I gave him some crispy salad to nibble at and he's lovin that,
when I eat something he's just has to eat too funny bird

one thing about toys is swap them around every few weeks i.e dont let him have them all at once as it can stress them....try giving him some grated carrot mine use to love it and a bit of rich tea biscuit lol

You will be able to get him to bond with you but it will take time ...we use to tame down wild parrots by just spending time talking and feeding titbits, then next stage would be to try and get the bird to step up onto a perch while holding the perch just under its chest....as time went on the perch got shorter till it was replaced by a finger or hand in case of large parrots lol


Im sure you'll have great fun together with the odd bite here and there
always look on the bright side of life...de dum..de dum..de dum..

He listens to Radio 1 im gunna ave to buy a wind-up radio
though my electric costs alot

he also likes my Techno music especially Carlo Resoort 0
Class hes trying to sing it

Eastenders theme tune he goes mental at im
beginning to think he hates it

he done his first Wolf Whistle at me today so looks like he's getting settled,
I wish i could get him used to my hand all I get from him is bloody fingers atm he has one painful nip everytime he gets you you bleed!

Oh and shelly I know how it feels like being bit from a parrot I got bitten by one when I did work experience at school at the Birmingham nature centre haha it's something you will always remember!

them birds kick ass! but cockatiels bloody well hurt too!

Nice
You'll have to bond with her before you can let her fly around. Trust me, I know from personal experience

But they are nice birds, none the less. I got a parakeet after mine escaped (remember the personal experience I mentioned? Oh and don't ask me how ), and he's simply adorable

that cage is more than suitable for 2 they will have plenty of room in there together....BUT a word of caution not all get on together, you are best keeping them side by side for a few weeks till they get use to each other...then put them together but keep an eye out as its usually the female's that can be aggressive!....good luck
