Adopted another, AGAIN. ugh why why why can't I say no.
The shelter in town somehow got in a cockatiel that has no history. I don't know a thing about her past or even how old she is. She was apparently found living outside. She's definitely tamed, and steps up for me most of the time. She's an AMAZING flyer. She will take off fly around the room and land on my finger. I have named her "chessie" and she is currently in quarantine. I bought a new cage that will eventually house her and my boy, Jazz pending approval from them of course. She likes to scrap her beak under our fingernails, gross, but cute. If she gets ahold of my girlfriends nails she will chew right through em. She makes beautiful little sounds, and seems to enjoy being talked to.
She's a Pearl I think? I have read that most likely she's a female as most male Pearls return to normal grey after maturing. Any insight into that? I went ahead and ordered a DNA test anyways. I've always been wooed by their beautiful mutations.
