First let me start by saying I was completely bummed when I got a text from the guy I was supposed to get my new tiel from saying that the one left that I was getting wasn't acting right. He said he didn't feel right selling a bird that wasn't at 100%. I'm glad he was honest with me, but was still upset over it.

I had someone else in mind who had some, but they were a it older. So I called her and she had 1 left! I told her I was leaving my house then. Lol. So after an almost disastrous day of not getting my bird, my I introduce the new addition, AEROS! (god of love, seemed fitting for a bird purchased on valentines day) :grey:

I'll have more pics to come, but he was very scared. But he is reacting well and sunny is a great teacher.

Thanks. He's a bit more difficult to calm down than sunny, but I've only worked with for a few minutes, and he's calming down already!

Thank you! He's already to the point where he will step up on my hand. And he loves to explore things. Anytime I'm holding him or set him down he "tastes" everything. I ick him p and he gently nibbles on my hand, shirt, or if I set him on top of his cage, he'll nibble the blanket. And he seems very intuitive. He cocks is head to the side when I talk to him and when he's looking at something. I already love him so much! And haven't even had him for a day yet.

Looks like you need to update your parrots!

I hope you are able to form a close bond with him!

My first bird was a parakeet named Buddy (passed away November 8, 2012). My newest friend is a parakeet named Chipper.
He's already letting you hold him and pet him? That's great! Congratulations! He sounds like he's getting very comfortable with you already, and he's a happy, curious bird. :)

Mhmm! And he started doing a whistle that my other tiel has never done. But of course he stopped as soon as I came in the room.

Thank you all so much! He is an amazing bird. I had to email his previous owner and let them know how amazing he is!!! and he just gets better. Hes got a few whistles that he does. And he has one that he does when I wake up and when I get home from work that he makes to let me know hes ready to come out. And when I walk in to the room hell be hanging on the door with his beak through the bars. XD
Its funny because his previous owners never held him. He was just one of the offspring from their birds
