so I accidentally came home with another cockatiel:54:

she was just so darn pretty and I KNOW Dexter is going to LOVE her

apparently she is a yellow suffusion cinnamon pied, 4 years old, which is the same age as Dexter.

now for a name??....any suggestions?? I know you guys come up with some really good ones!!

Congratulations she is so beautiful. And it was no accident that you got her. Your heart told you too maybe because she needed a good forever home. Enjoy and keep us posted. Thanks.

Oh my, Beth, she is gorgeous! No wonder you had to accidentally bring her home
Hmmm, for names, I like Daphne to go with Dexter

I kind of like the name "Blush" for a female cockatiel. It looks like she's wearing blush on her very pretty cheeks, and it's not a common bird name you hear everywhere

no, she's not, she was turned into a pet store just yesterday. I was shopping for pellets today, and there she was.

she is semi-tame, and has been well taken care of.

She is really beautiful, do not think I've ever seen another like her. ..

But boy do I hate when those kind of accidents happen... Just shopping minding your own business and holy cow, how did THAT fall into my cart . . happens to me with boots too. I tripped and my card fell into the swipe slot... And they said no returns. I so hate when that happens.

What a beautiful accident .

since I had promised myself 'no more birds' with the exception of Martini, who by the way is doing awesome.....when I saw miss 'Blush'....that is the name I chose(thankyou Kiwibird!!!)....I could tell she was very pretty, the more I looked at her, the more I wanted to bring her home.

As it turned out, my husband was furious with me,and wouldn't talk to me.

ahhhh well, that too shall pass.

the reason I say this is because I pay him back for every bird I purchase, every cage I buy etc.....but he does pay for the food and any vet bills.... I paid him back more than 1/2 for Safari's medical bill of $1700.00....so when he gets mad, it's a slight tantrum, but he soon forgets when I pay him back, which won't be long, as my nursery is full of babies, and fertile eggs.

talk about taking the fun out of bringing a new bird home....sheeeesh!

How can he look at that face and be mad.... Blush or yours

Remind him better or worse, good or bad, cockatiels and conures what I thought those were the standard vows....

Is there anything he collects or likes? My hubby's big boy soft spot is remote planes.... I think he has as many as we do birds. Distract him with something shiny, usually works..,, I love you Byron if you happen to read this over my shoulder.... love you, mean it.

Beautiful bird, Crimson. I can't come up with any suggestions for a name, my wife names most of our flock.
