Hey All-

My name is David and I am a happy bird owner here in Chicago IL. I am 24 years old and my birds are super important to me.

They are in order of age:

Congo African Grey, Tiko: Tiko is a 4 year old CAG that used to work in kids shows. She was too finicky for the shows, so she sat in a cage for 4.5 years. I got her and she is my best bud. She is super cool. A little Finnicky but we've built a good bond.

Yellow Naped Amazon, Sweetpea: Sweetpea is my 5 year old Yellow Naped Amazon. Oh my god and she is every bit a baby. She is my most exceptional/only talker. I will have to post some videos of her cause she is a hoot! She is also a rescue, has been passed around to 7 homes to various reasons but she fits in well with me.

Normal Grey Cockatiel, Stanley: Stanley is my first bird I ever got and he is only 1 year old. He is actually a she but whatever. I got him from a breeder when Stan was just a little baby. Sweet little bird, a little moody, but they all are :)

Pied Cockatiel, Connor: Connor is my little...demon. He is 1 year old. I would rather have a bite from my Amazon on my face then a bite from him. He is a sweet little guy. He is also a horn dog and enjoys having relations with, well, all my tiles from time to time.

Normal White Face Cockatiel, Biride: I got Birdie 1 year ago and finished hand feeding her myself. Cute bird, very fun, very loud and just a joy.

Normal Cinnamon, Freddie: I got Freddie as a rescue. She was purchased from a pet store as a baby and sat in her cage laying eggs for 5 years. When I got her she was bone thin, not well cared for but she is the sweetest tiel I have.

Lutino Cockatiel, Daizie: Daisy is a 7 year old retired breeder. She is a little bit aggressive but she chills. Just giving her a good home. I could die in a fire and she wouldn't care.

Lutino Ringneck, Faith: Faith is from a breeder. Very Funny little bird :)


Thats the parrots! I look forward to being on the forums :)

Welcome to the forum!!! They add up pretty fast huh once you start taking them in...lol
 
Howdy! I had a cockatiel named Freddy. He was a hoot. He always tried to feed me and brought me gifts of shredded paper, sunflower shells. He was a mumbler, though, and when ever he spoke, I said 'what?' real loud. So he eventually learned to say 'what' in a loud tone. So he'd mumble then say 'what?' then he'd mumble some more.
 
Hi David! As lauren stated, we both live in the city - we should all kick it sometime!
