Ok, how adorable can you get?

Kiryon · May 19, 2013

Just brought home my very first bird today, he's a 3 months old baby cockatiel that now goes by the name Oz and he's just adorable, I think I'm in love. I put him in the cage and had decided to give him a few days to adapt, but then he started chirping in front of the door so I eventually let him out. He was a bit reluctant to let me approach him for the first half an hour or so, so I gave him some millet and all that, tried to pet him a little.

And eventually:

Then, I thought maybe he could start learning to step up and he actually sometimes does but most of the time, he just throws his head down and rubs it against my hand. Asddgfhhdgffd. Why didn't I get a bird sooner, he's so sweet

You mean that in a good or bad way? Yeah, I'm probably gonna be one of these crazy people who take a 1000 pics. I promise not to fill the place with pics of him thought =S I just had to get all the feels out and share them with the world

Congrats on you new baby! I love the pictures, the love of a bird is like no other. Enjoy!

Ohhh so cute. They sure do have a way to melt hearts.

Kiryon · May 20, 2013

Thanks guys, he's just so precious :grey:

He sure loves cleaning himself and napping thought. He's nibbled a little on his toys but he doesn't seem too interested in them.

He made a noise that worried me this morning, but with reasearch, I found out that he was just grinding his beak and here I was all worried that he might be sick. He's still going to the vet for a checkup thought.

Since it doesn't bother you guys, have some more because I just can't take the cuteness

Napyy time

I so managed to catch his nibbling before he stopped

Kalidasa · May 20, 2013

Omg he's so cute! My birds grind their beaks too, usually during "quiet" times in the evening. That's a great rope-perch, I have a couple and my conure loves them, it's great for their beaks because they love to pick at them.

Kiryon · May 20, 2013

Yeah, he seems to like the rope perch. He climbs right on top of it even when the cage is closed (actually he's up there right now, I put him in to have my dinner) =P I was thinking of getting another one that would go from side to side on top of the cage (outside) so he can play on it when he's out.

Edit: So I got the new rope and installed it, he refused to wait until it was secured to hop on, made himself right at home as I struggled to correctly place the rope.

Thank you X3 Right now he's pigging out on those new seeds I bought for him. Like seriously

I was worried he might not want to upgrade from those cheap walmart greens the lady who sold him to me had him on, but ti wasn't a problem at all. Tried to feed him some pellets and apple too, but no luck so far.

Kalidasa · May 20, 2013

Oz is such an awesome name!

Thank you

As weird as it may be, I'd named him before I even had him. I saw his picture on the internet and thought 'hey you look like a Oz' xD

Kiryon · May 21, 2013

Baby just realized what Mr-tear-me-up is used for

On a side note, we tried again today and he was more than happy to nom on pellets as voraciously as his seeds. I'm starting to think glutton would have been a better name for him xD Still no luck with the apples thought. Any fruit/vegie suggestions?

Ok, how adorable can you get?
